One-pot iron determination in fortified flours using thymol-1,10-phenanthroline deep eutectic solvent and smartphone-based digital image photometry

SSSamara Carollyne Mafra SoaresFRFabio Rodrigo Piovezani RochaMHMaria C. Hespanhol

Key Points

  • The research aims to develop a simpler method for determining iron content in fortified flours using a smartphone-based approach.
  • Utilized thymol-1,10-phenanthroline deep eutectic solvent for iron extraction
  • Implemented digital image photometry for measurement
  • Conducted one-pot reaction to streamline the process
  • Successfully detected iron in fortified flours with high accuracy
  • Demonstrated efficiency compared to traditional acid digestion methods
  • Proposed a cost-effective approach for widespread use

Abstract

Iron fortification of flours is an important public health strategy for reducing iron-deficiency anemia. Conventional procedures for iron determination in fortified flours generally involve acid digestion followed by determination using...
