Recently, macro minerals (Na, Ca, K Mg and P) have the excellent functions associated with prevention of disease. We estimated an amount of macro minerals in the vegetables produced in Korea in order to build the food nutritional ingredient table. A SRM 1849a purchased from NIST in USA was digested by the microwave and validation of macro minerals in SRM 1849a was carried out by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP‐OES). Regression analysis of correlation coefficient (R 2 ) was higher than 0.999 which revealed good linearity. Based on this analysis, the raw vegetables contained 0.20 to 144.98 mg/100 g of sodium, 7.81 to 266.57 mg/100 g of calcium, 230.57 to 812.73 mg/100 g of potassium, 12.16 to 76.28 mg/100 g of magnesium and phosphorus ranged from 35.32 to 123.81 mg/100 g. In addition, the contents of the minerals in the blanched vegetables were 1.40 to 134.75 mg/100 g of sodium, 7.80 to 177.58 mg/100 g of calcium, 150.32 to 651.71 mg/100 g of potassium, 11.17 to 56.63 mg/100 g of magnesium and 36.20 to 136.61 mg/100 g of phosphorus. Hence, it would be expected that the mineral contents could be used to draw up the food nutritional ingredient table.
