Abstract
A rapid quantitative X‐ray spectrometric method of analysing meat and meat products for calcium, potassium, chlorine, sulphur, phosphorus and sodium is described. The freeze‐dried sample is pelleted with cellulose powder and X‐ray intensities from the elements of interest are compared with those from external standards. Matrix corrections are applied. The results are in good agreement with those obtained by standard wet chemical methods. The method described enables ten samples to be analysed for at least five elements in one day.

## Abstract X‐ray fluorescence spectroscopy is used for the determination of total sulphur in plant material. One calibration curve can be used for pasture, clover, apple leaf, rape plant top and wheat plant samples. The intensity of the sulphur Ka line radiation is measured on a pressed disc of
A method was developed for the determination of phosphorus and sulphur in edible oils and fats by wavelengthdispersive x-ray Ñuorescence (WDXRF) spectrometry. The samples were measured in disposable liquid cells after solidiÐcation with 15% stearic acid to obtain a stable measurement. The WDXRF meth
