Abstract:
A method was developed for the rapid determination of the salt content in desalting solution of pickled mustard based on electrical conductivity. Firstly, the influence of salt concentration and type and temperature on the conductivity of the desalting solution was analyzed. Secondly, the relationship between conductivity and salt content was analyzed by Pearson correlation coefficient, and a predictive equation for the salt content in the desalting solution was established by linear regression analysis. Lastly, the predictive equation was validated by the titration method described in the Chinese national standard. The results showed that the conductivity and the salt content of the desalting solution indicated an extremely significant correlation with correlation coefficient of 0.9790. The average error between the predicted and the experimental values was less than 5% suggesting the accuracy and effectiveness of the predictive equation. The analytical procedure was completed in less than 15 seconds. Therefore, the established method is simple and rapid, and can be used to determine the salt content in pickled mustard.
