hello sir, what is the alternative way of testing ash content of briquettes without the use of muffle furnace?

Awesome video! Question, I understand combustion reduces food to inorganic mineral ash. I’m confused, if the body uses minerals however the minerals become inorganic after digestion, how is it assimilated?

@MicroChemsExperiments

3 жыл бұрын

Spinoza Black, thanks for your question. Inside a human body, digestive juice creates acidic condition in the stomach to digest you food to convert it into difderent micronutrients and thus releasing minerals. These are further absorbed into the blood vessels.

Thank for the nice video. I have some questions. My samples are not turning to grey color. I keep it 48 h is the muffle (600 oC) but it still has a light green and reddish color. The ash content is about 30 %. I think it may be too high. My samples are the herb extracts with different concentration of ethanol. I don't know what wrong with my sample or procedure. Hopefully, you see my comment and kindly give me some advice.

@MicroChemsExperiments

Jalal Shah, Thank you fot your comment. Ash% totally depends on the minerals & heavy metals content present in your honey sample. So high content of heavy metals & minerals means high Ash percent. You can reduce Moisture from your sample by increasing the density of your sample. This can be accomplished by drying the sample at elevated temperature.

No. The crucible must keep open while heating, according to AOAC method. When you will apply heat at above 550 degree Celsius, the sample will burn out, no matter the crucible is open or close. Crucible is kept closed to avoid loss of ash during burning.
