In this study, the concentration of iron element in seven types of flour samples - produced domestically in Uzbekistan and imported, widely consumed in Jizzakh city - was determined using the spectrophotometric method. The obtained results were compared according to the national standard O‘zDst 3221. Ortho- phenanthroline was used as a reagent for the photometric determination of iron in the solution. The analysis results showed that the iron concentration in flour products consumed in Jizzakh city varies significantly. The highest iron content was found in sample No. 2, which was produced in the Jizzakh region, while the lowest value was observed in sample No. 3. Based on the obtained results, the mineral composition of the products was evaluated, and scientific conclusions were drawn regarding consumer food safety.
