Study of the elemental composition of the common oat (Avena sativa L.) fruit

Abstract

The article presents the results of a study of the elemental composition of the fruits of common oat (Avena sativa L.) harvested in the Republic of Uzbekistan. The elemental composition was determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The results of the analysis have shown that potassium, calcium, magnesium, sodium are the dominant elements in the raw material. The elements such as aluminum, iron, manganese, strontium, zinc, honey and lead also present in the studied raw material. The presence of essential elements to a certain degree increases the biological activity of the oat fruit. It is caused by their complex action in combination with main active substances.
