Abstract:

Asparagus is rich in nutrients, and Caoxian asparagus is popular because of its long history of planting and good quality. By establishing a method for determining the contents of 18 nutrient elements in asparagus by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), the background value of nutrient elements in Caoxian asparagus was comprehensively analyzed. After the samples were microwave-digested by HNO3-H2O2 peroxide, appropriate internal standard isotope elements were selected to improve the matrix effect and interference, and the 18 elements in Caoxian asparagus were determined by ICP-MS. The results showed that the linear range of Na, Mg and K in the mass concentration range of 0-20000 μg/L and Al, Ca, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Cd, Ba and Pb in the mass concentration range of 0-500 μg/L were good (r>0.9996), the precision of the instrument was concentrated in 0.34%-3.41%, and the recovery rate of standard addition was 88.35%-105.36%. The contents of Na, Mg, K and Ca in asparagus were at a relatively high level, and the content of Se was more abundant. This method is suitable for quick, sensitive and accurate determination of 18 elements in asparagus, and can provide data support for monitoring the background content of nutrient elements in Caoxian asparagus.
