Orange, Lemon, Lime Rangpur, Principal component analysisAbstract
The objectives of this study were to quantify and compare the content of elements in orange juice, lemon juice and Rangpur lime juice from the Northeast Argentina. Twelve elements were determined, including five macroelements (K, P, Ca, Mg and S) and four trace elements (Cr, Cu, Mn, and Zn) using an optical emission spectrometer inductively coupled plasma (ICP-OES). Lemon juice showed a higher content of macro and micro elements, than Rangpur lime juice and orange juice, re- spectively. The Principal Component Analysis allowed observing the formation of two groups, one consisting of lemon juice and another orange juice and lime Rangpur. The similarity of the orange juice and lime Rangpur juice, was higher than the content of minority elements.
