and Eslamshahr regions were sampled in summer 2007 from farms for which
well water was used. The samples were then prepared and concentration
of the trace elements were determined by using atomic absorption spectrometry
in Iranian Atomic Energy Agency. According to the analysis the minimum
and maximum concentration of Pb 0.0050 ± 0.0001 ppm in mint (stem)
of Babasalman and 0.0645 ± 0.0010 ppm in radish (leaf) of Eslamshahr,
Ni 0.0004 ± 0.0001 ppm in radish (root) of Babasalman and 0.0175
± 0.0001 ppm in bulbil (root) of Eslamshahr, Cr 0.0903 ±
0.0006 ppm in radish (root) of Babasalman and 0.8801 ± 0.0036 ppm
in mint (leaf) of Eslamshahr, respectively. Minimum of Cd concentration
was lower than detection limit of spectrometer and maximum was 0.0816
± 0.0002 ppm in radish (leaf) of Babasalman and concentration of
Hg was lower than detection limit of spectrometer in all of the samples
and only was 0.1399 ± 0.0002 ppm in cress of Babasalman.]]>Alam, M.G.M., E.T. Snow and A. Tanaka, 20033088396Demirezen, D. and A.
