18 JANUARY 2013
(b) Iron claim for an uncooked beef schnitzel comprised of 115 g raw beef and 30 g iron-fortified breadcrumbs, in a reference quantity of 145 g -
Average quantity of iron in raw beef = 2.5 mg/100 g (from analysis or nutrient composition tables)
Maximum claim per reference quantity for iron in fortified breadcrumbs = 3 mg/50 g bread
Q₁ (raw beef) = 2.5 x 115/100 = 2.875 mg iron/115 g
Q₂ (iron-fortified breadcrumbs) = 3 mg x 30/50 = 1.8 mg iron/30 g
M
q = 2.875 + 1.8 = 4.675 mg iron/145 g uncooked beef schnitzel
The calculated maximum quantity of iron that may be claimed in 145 g of uncooked beef schnitzel rounded to the nearest 2 significant figures = 4.7 mg
