The Content of Macrominerals in Beverages, Liquid Teas, and Liquid Coffees

유통 음료, 액상차 및 액상커피의 다량무기질 함량

The aims of this study were to investigate some macrominerals (Na, Ca, P, K, Mg) in 207 beverages, 19 liquid teas, and 24 liquid coffees. The samples were digested by microwave and determinations of macrominerals were carried out by an Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometer (ICP-OES). The elements, listed in order of mean value of macromineral content, were potassium $208.4{\pm}298.2mg/L$ ($72.2{\pm}169.8mg/container$)> calcium $89.0{\pm}161.0mg/L$ ($26.0{\pm}57.7mg/container$)> sodium $71.2{\pm}75.0mg/L$ ($20.9{\pm}27.9mg/container$)> phosphorus $55.6{\pm}91.9mg/L$ ($17.9{\pm}33.8mg/container$)> magnesium $6.1{\pm}18.4mg/L$ ($2.4{\pm}10.1mg/container$). All 250 samples contained sodium and potassium, and the detection rate of calcium, phosphorus and magnesium was 88.4%, 93.2%, and 20.4%. The mean ratio of phosphorus to calcium in beverages, liquid teas, and liquid coffees was $4.2{\pm}16.0$ (ND~164.4), and sports drinks showed the highest mean ratio ($48.5{\pm}75.6$) significantly (p<0.05). In case of sodium, detected content exceeding labeling regulations (less then 120%) was observed in 12 samples (5.5%).

본 연구는 비알콜음료 중 다량무기질 함량을 파악하기 위하여, 2010년 6~12월 중 서울지역 대형유통센터 등에서 유통되고 있는 음료 207건, 액상커피 24건 및 액상차 19건을 구입하여 습식분해로 전처리 후 ICP-OES를 이용하여 분석하였다. 다량무기질 평균 함량은 칼륨 $208.4{\pm}298.2mg/L$($72.2{\pm}169.8mg/container$, 검출율 100%)> 칼슘 $89.0{\pm}161.0mg/L$($26.0{\pm}57.7mg/container$, 검출율 88.4%)> 나트륨$71.2{\pm}75.0mg/L$($20.9{\pm}27.9mg/container$, 검출율 100%)>인 $55.6{\pm}91.9mg/L$($17.9{\pm}33.8mg/container$, 검출율 93.2%)> 마그네슘 $6.1{\pm}18.4mg/L$($2.4{\pm}10.1mg/container$, 검출율 20.4%) 순으로 높았다. 인과 칼슘의 비율은 평균 $4.2{\pm}16.0$(ND~164.4)으로 스포츠음료가 $48.5{\pm}75.6$으로 유의적으로 가장 높았으며(p<0.05), 나트륨의 경우 표시량에 대한 실측치의 비율이 120% 이상인 제품은 12개(5.5%)였다.
