Abstract

The use of seasonings is important in food industry because the bioactive compounds contained in these dried aromatic plants improve the taste and the flavor of food. These dried aromatic plants can often be contaminated with some heavy metals, polycyclic carbohydrates residues and pesticides which may occur during the cultivation operation, drying process, manufacture and conditioning. The aim of this study is to determine the contamination with heavy metals (lead, cadmium, chromium, nickel and cobalt) of basil (B), rosemary (R) and peppermint (M) seasonings used in Romanian cuisine. The concentration of lead ranged 0.058 0.643 mg.kg-1 (M), 0.209 0.493 mg.kg-1 (R), 0.077 0.139 mg.kg-1 (B). The concentration of cadmium varied: 0.004 0.035 mg.kg-1 (M), 0.004 0.007 mg.kg-1 (R), 0.002 0.009 mg.kg-1 (B). The concentration of chromium ranged 0.304 0.403 mg.kg-1 (M), 0.450 0.457 mg.kg-1 (R), 0.208 0.336 mg.kg-1 (B). The concentration of nickel varied from 0.376 0.848 mg.kg-1 (M), 0.354 0.427 mg.kg-1 (R), 0.230 0.334 mg.kg-1 (B). The concentration of cobalt ranged 0.037 0.167 mg.kg-1 (M), 0.065 0.137 mg.kg-1 (R), 0.112 0.156 mg.kg-1 (B).

罗马尼亚市场罗勒、迷迭香和薄荷调味料中铅、镉、铬、镍和钴的含量

调味料的使用在食品工业中很重要，因为这些干燥的芳香植物中含有的生物活性化合物可以改善食品的口感和风味。这些干燥的芳香植物在栽培操作、干燥过程、制造和调理过程中往往会受到重金属、多环碳水化合物残留物和农药的污染。本研究的目的是确定罗马尼亚烹饪中使用的罗勒(B)、迷迭香(R)和薄荷(M)调味料中重金属(铅、镉、铬、镍和钴)的污染情况。铅的浓度范围为0.058 ~ 0.643 mg。kg-1 (M)， 0.209 0.493 mg。kg-1 (R)， 0.077 0.139 mg。kg-1 (B).镉的浓度变化:0.004 0.035 mg。kg-1 (M)， 0.004 0.007 mg。kg-1 (R)， 0.002 0.009 mg。kg-1 (B).铬的浓度范围为0.304 ~ 0.403 mg。kg-1 (M)， 0.450 0.457 mg。kg-1 (R)， 0.208 0.336 mg。kg-1 (B)。镍的浓度变化范围为0.376 ~ 0.848 mg。kg-1 (M)， 0.354 0.427 mg。kg-1 (R)， 0.230 0.334 mg。kg-1 (B)。钴的浓度范围为0.037 0.167 mg。kg-1 (M)， 0.065 0.137 mg。kg-1 (R)， 0.112 0.156 mg。公斤(B)。
