“…The macro mineral compositions on a fresh and dry matter basis and the EDIs of Ca, P, and Mg are presented in Table 2 . Among all the minerals measured, Ca was the most abundant in C. saturnus meat, (865 mg/100 g DM or 172.65 mg/100 g FM); these results agree with the findings of earlier studies on the major elements in other land snail species [ 5 ]. Nkansah et al [ 6 ] also reported the content of Ca, the most plentiful mineral, in the meat of three snail species from Ghana, A. marginata (701.79 mg/100 g DM), A. achatina (656.9 mg/100 g DM), and A. fulica (402.09 mg/100 g DM), while Kalio and Etela [ 35 ] reported values in the range of 144–175 mg/100 g FM in A. marginata .…”
