| Abstract | The aim of this study was to optimize and validate a simple method for determination of the potential of important minerals for health (calcium, iron, zinc, and magnesium) in residue from orange and lemon juice industries and determine whether there are differences concerning these nutrients during the months when these fruits were harvested. The mineralization was optimized using an experimental design and then validated. Dried residue samples of Pera orange, Hamlin orange, Tahiti lime, Sicilian lemon, and a mixture composed of oranges and lemons were digested and analyzed by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry (FAAS). Citrus fruit samples, harvested in different months, were also analyzed. The most appropriate condition for mineralization was the use of the highest values of sample mass (0.6 g) and nitric acid volume (8.0 mL). All the parameters of validation were met. The average mineral content levels found were 6.8 mg/g for calcium and 116.4, 915.5, and 7.4 μg/g for iron, magnesium, and zinc, respectively. Thus, a portion of 100 g of residue can provide 68.3% of the Recommended Daily Intake (RDI) for calcium, 35.2% for magnesium, 83.1% for iron, and 10.6% for zinc. The principal component analysis showed no clear separation among oranges, lemons, and the mixture as for their composition. The mineral content levels found indicate that citrus residue has nutritional potential for use in human food and can contribute significantly to the achievement of the RDIs, especially for calcium and iron, since their deficiencies are considered major public health problems. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
