Abstract: | Summary Tea leaves reference material was prepared and certified for elemental composition. Japanese green tea leaves were ground, sieved to pass a 80-mesh screen, blended and bottled. The prepared material satisfied the homogeneity criteria for a reference material. Trace element analysis of the material was carried out by flame and graphite furnace atomic absorption and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry.Certification of the material was performed using the data obtained by various analytical techniques and certified values are provided for Al, Ca, Cd, Cu, K, Mg, Mn, Na, Ni, Pb and Zn. The elemental composition of the tea leaves reference material is considered typical of Japanese green tea leaves. |
