Abstract

Malva sylvestris is a widely consumed edible-medicinal plant with a natural distribution all around the world. The aim of this study is to determine the concentration levels of heavy metals, such as cadmium, chromium, copper, iron, manganese, nickel, lead, and zinc, in the M. sylvestris samples from different local markets in the province of Izmir, Turkey. The analyses of the heavy metals Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn was realized by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy. At the end of the study, the mean concentrations determined for the unwashed plant samples were as follows: The contents of Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn (μgg-1, dry weight) varied between 0.035 and 0.262, 0.247 and 1.133, 1.611 and 43.27, 7.425 and 568.6, 0.340 and 57.61, 0.090 and 2.563, 0.032 and 1.712, and 5.309 and 75.47, respectively. For the washed plant samples, however, the contents of Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn (μgg-1, dry weight) varied between 0.026 and 0.172, 0.153 and 0.462, 0.247-68.34, 7.407 and 187.5, 0.340 and 49.99, 0.042 and 1.332, 0.005 and 0.502, and 5.314 and 60.37, respectively. The findings show that the heavy metal concentrations of all the heavy metals determined in the washed plant samples were lower.

伊兹密尔当地市场上作为食用蔬菜出售的马尔瓦的重金属含量

Malva sylvestris是一种广泛食用的药用植物，自然分布在世界各地。本研究的目的是确定来自土耳其伊兹密尔省不同地方市场的M. sylvestris样品中镉、铬、铜、铁、锰、镍、铅和锌等重金属的浓度水平。采用电感耦合等离子体发射光谱法对重金属Cd、Cr、Cu、Fe、Mn、Ni、Pb和Zn进行了分析。研究结束时，未洗植物样品Cd、Cr、Cu、Fe、Mn、Ni、Pb、Zn (μg -1，干重)含量分别为0.035 ~ 0.262、0.247 ~ 1.133、1.611 ~ 43.27、7.425 ~ 568.6、0.340 ~ 57.61、0.090 ~ 2.563、0.032 ~ 1.712、5.309 ~ 75.47。水洗植株样品Cd、Cr、Cu、Fe、Mn、Ni、Pb、Zn(干重)含量分别为0.026 ~ 0.172、0.153 ~ 0.462、0.247 ~ 68.34、7.407 ~ 187.5、0.340 ~ 49.99、0.042 ~ 1.332、0.005 ~ 0.502、5.314 ~ 60.37。结果表明，洗涤后的植物样品中重金属含量均较低。

期刊介绍： Cessation. Ekoloji is an international journal that focuses on papers that report results from original research on all disciplines engaged in the field of environmental research. We welcome articles that cover the entire spectrum of environmental problems and environmental pollutants, whether chemical, biological or physical. Its coverage extends to all environmentally related issues: air and water pollution, solid waste, noise, recycling, natural resources, ecology and environmental protection. It includes articles on basic and applied environmental pollution research, including environmental engineering and environmental health. All types of pollution are covered, including atmospheric pollutants, detergents, fertilizers, industrial effluents, metals, mining wastes, oil, pesticides, plastics, radioactive materials and sewage. It also includes research papers on ecological and environmental issues such as climate change, biodiversity. The primary criteria for publication are scientific quality and ecological/environmental significance. The journal will be read and contributed to by biologists, applied ecologists, environmental scientists, natural resource specialists, environmental engineers, environmental health specialists, agro-ecologists, veterinaries, agricultural engineers, landscape planners and designers. The journal welcomes full "research papers" and short "research notes", only in the English language.
