4. Analysis of Ash and Minerals . 4.1 Introduction. The "ash content" is a measure of the total amount of minerals present within a food, whereas the "mineral content" is a measure of the amount of specific inorganic components present within a food, such as Ca, Na, K and Cl.Determination of the ash and mineral content of foods is important for a number of reasons:

In this simple test, a small amount of powder (approx. 0.25g) is placed on a polished hot plate top that is at a temperature high enough to cause the cure reaction (usually 180-200°C). A timer is started, and the powder is stirred with a wooden spatula (tongue depressor) until it cures up into a solid, which can no longer be stirred.
