Investigation of elements in sweeteners by NAA analytic technique. In: INTERNATIONAL NUCLEAR ATLANTIC CONFERENCE, October 21-25, 2019, Santos, SP. <b>Proceedings...</b> Rio de Janeiro: Associação Brasileira de Energia Nuclear, 2019. p. 402-407. Disponível em: http://repositorio.ipen.br/handle/123456789/30363.http://repositorio.ipen.br/handle/123456789/30363In this study, brands of sweeteners (aspartame and sucralose) marketed in Brazil were investigated by Neutron Activation Analysis (NAA). The measurements were performed using the IEA-R1 nuclear reactor at IPEN - CNEN/SP. The elements Cl and Na were identified in all samples. The Na concentration in sweeteners samples showed low content for most of the brands (0.013 –3.81 g kg-1), while Cl had high concentration variation (0.04 – 11.10 g kg-1). These data provide knowledge regarding nutritional aspect and toxicity derived from sweetener consumption.402-407openAccesschlorineiear-1 reactorirradiationneutron activation analysisnutritionsaccharosesodiumTexto completo de eventohttps://orcid.org/0000-0001-7766-2692
