Abstract
To study the mineral content in 50 Textured Vegetable Protein-TVP (defatted) manufactured in Sri Lanka. The objectives of the work reported in the present study were to find out the minerals magnesium, manganese, copper and zine. The specific objectives of the work reported in the present study wereto: 1. Provide a date base on the levels of magnesium, manganese, copper and zinc. 2. Provide a possible basis (based on 1.) for identifying a marker to assess the soya protein in meat products for future work. This study concentrated on the estimation of minerals (magnesium, Manganese, zine) in TVP (defattd), protein of the same TVP samples and the estimation of mineral (magnesium, manganese, copper, zine) in few samples of meat (chiken, mutton, fish) to see whether they differ sufficiently from those of TVP(defatted).
