KINKAN (Fortunella Swingle) GROWING IN THE LANKARAN ECONOMIC REGION AND ITS MINERAL COMPOSITION

The paper shows the main characteristics of Fortunella Swingle, growing in the Lankaran
economic region of the Republic of Azerbaijan and its mineral composition. The mass fraction of
ash, depending on the species of kinkan, ranges from 0.52 ± 0.19% (Fortunella margarita) to
0.61 ± 0.09% (Fortunella japonica). The content of individual elements in kinkan fruits,
depending on the type of berries, is, in mg per 100g-1 : Fe - from 1.79±0.08 to 2.18±0.02; Mn -from 0.47 ± 0.01 to 0.65 ± 0.09; Cu- from 0.28 ± 0.01 to 0.46 ± 0.03; Mg - from 35.70 ± 1.43 to
59.23 ± 1.39; K - from 128.74 ± 3.28 to 156.34 ± 4.18; Ca- from 164.23 ± 3.15 to 193.87 ± 3.14;
Р- from 17.75 ± 0.36 to 24.48 ± 0.22. These data show that kinkan fruits are rich in calcium
(Fortunella margarita) and potassium (Fortunella japonica), which is confirmed by the studies of
other authors. The research results indicate that the main indicators of the chemical composition
of the kinkan berry, including the mineral composition, depend on the type of raw material. The
biological and nutritional value of various types of kinkan berries allows us to consider them as an additional source of raw materials for the production of various food products based on them,
including juices, drinks, compotes, jams, etc

该论文揭示了福橘（Fortunella Swingle）在阿塞拜疆共和国兰卡兰经济区的生长特性及其矿物成分。根据柑橘品种的不同，其灰分质量分数介于0.52 ± 0.19%（Fortunella margarita）至0.61 ± 0.09%（Fortunella japonica）之间。福橘果实中个别元素的含量，依据浆果的类型，每100克-1的含量分别为：Fe - 1.79±0.08至2.18±0.02毫克；Mn - 0.47 ± 0.01至0.65 ± 0.09毫克；Cu - 0.28 ± 0.01至0.46 ± 0.03毫克；Mg - 35.70 ± 1.43至59.23 ± 1.39毫克；K - 128.74 ± 3.28至156.34 ± 4.18毫克；Ca - 164.23 ± 3.15至193.87 ± 3.14毫克；P - 17.75 ± 0.36至24.48 ± 0.22毫克。这些数据表明，福橘果实富含钙（Fortunella margarita）和钾（Fortunella japonica），这一点也得到了其他作者研究的证实。研究结果表明，福橘浆果的化学成分的主要指标，包括矿物成分，取决于原料的类型。不同种类的福橘浆果的生物和营养价值使我们能够将其视为生产各种食品原料的补充来源，包括果汁、饮料、果酱等。
