    Abstract

    Trace elements are important nutritional elements for human health.Six trace elements in Fuji apple skin and pulp were analyzed by the method of ICP-MS.The results showed that the concentrations of Ca,Mn, Fe,Se,Mo and I were 197 910,1 623,14 400,2,47 and 91 ng·g-1·FW in apple skin respectively;and 58 360,281,550,4,18 and 24 ng·g-1·FW respectively in apple pulp.The concentrations of most trace elements (Ca,Mn,Fe,Mo and I) in apple skin were several times higher than those in apple pulp,especially the concentrations of Fe,Mn and I in skin was 25.18,4.78 and 2.79 times higher than those in pulp,except Se (2 ng·g-1·FW in skin and 4 ng·g-1·FW in pulp).So we should not peel apples before we eat them from regions where were not polluted by pesticides and heavy metals.
