Abstract

An ICP-AES method for determination of calcium content and dissolution characteristics of oyster shell (Ostrea gigas) has been developed and validated. Total calcium content in oyster shell was determined using ICPAES. The dissolution characteristics, which would reflect the composition of CaCO3 polymorphs and calcium salts in oyster shell, were also evaluated by dissolution test. The total calcium contents ranged from 31.8 to 39.9%and the dissolution ratios varied from 62.7 to 83.6% (n=15). The determination of calcium content and dissolution characteristics by ICP-AES would provide useful information for the quality control of oyster shell.
