  • Abstract
    This study was conducted on 5 local grape varieties of Vitis vinifera L. grown in commercial vineyards in Konya in 2008 to determine macro and micro mineral substance contents in their seeds. Mineral substance contents were determined using ICP-MS. It was found that all of the varieties had calcium, potassium, zinc, manganese and iron elements in considerable amounts. The grape seeds that are rich in mineral elements can be used as a food source for human nutrition.
