This application note demonstrates that the Epsilon 4 benchtop XRF spectrometer is well suited to analyze Na, Mg, P, Cl, K, Ca, Mn, Fe and Zn in infant cereals prepared as pressed pellets or loose powders.
A set of 8 infant cereal powder standards containing Na, Mg, P, Cl, K, Ca, Mn, Fe and Zn was used for this study. Elemental concentrations were previously determined by a potentiometric method for (Cl) and ICP-AES (all other elements).
