Abstract

A comprehensive elemental analysis of Pistacia lentiscus was conducted using the k₀-neutron activation analysis (k₀-NAA) technique, identifying and quantifying 26 elements such as Al, Ba, Br, Ca, Ce, Cl, Co, Cr, Cs, Eu, Fe, Hf, K, La, Mg, Mn, Na, Rb, Sb, Sc, Sm, Sr, Th, Tm, V, Zn. Key macrominerals such as Ca (4.54%), K (0.376%), Mg (0.589%), Cl (0.79%), and Na (0.19%) were identified, while essential microminerals included Fe (328 mg/kg), Mn (25.6 mg/kg), Zn (26.8 mg/kg), Cr (1.41 mg/kg), Co (0.219 mg/kg), and V (0.37 mg/kg). The results highlight the nutritional value of Pistacia lentiscus, contributing to dietary requirements, with elements like Ca, Mg, and K essential for bone health and metabolic functions, and Fe and Zn supporting various enzymatic processes. The elemental concentrations align with Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA), affirming the plant’s potential health benefits. Monitoring non-essential elements further provides insights into environmental exposure and potential health risks.
