PLAZMA OPTİK EMİSYON SPEKTROMETRESİ (ICP-OES) KULLANILARAK BAL ÖRNEKLERİNDE AĞIR METAL TAYİNİ

Bu çalışmada, Kayseri ve yöresinden toplanan bal örneklerinin kadmiyum, kurşun, nikel, çinko ve bakır içerikleri Varian ICP-OES cihazı kullanılarak belirlenmiştir. Bal örnekleri 2003 yılında Kayseri Erciyes Dağı’nın farklı bölgelerinden toplanmıştır. Kayseri bölgesinde üretilen balların iyi kalitede olduğu ancak tamamen ağır metalden yoksun olmadığı gözlenmiştir. İncelenen bal örnekleri içerisinde en yüksek metal konsantrasyonunun olduğu istasyonun yerleşim bölgelerine yakın olduğu dikkat çekmektedir. Bal örneklerindeki kadmiyum konsantrasyonunun 0,11 ile 0,18 ppm, bakır konsantrasyonunun 0,15 ile 0,66 ppm, çinko konsantrasyonunun 2,2 ile 11 ppm, nikel konsantrasyonunun 0,2 ile 0,8 ppm ve kurşun konsantrasyonunun ise 0,1 ile 0,85 ppm arasında olduğu gözlenmiştir. Sonuç olarak, bal örneklerindeki ağır metal konsantrasyonunun kabul edilebilir sınırlar dahilinde olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır

DETERMINATION OF HEAVY METALS IN BEE HONEY USING BY INDUCTIVELY COUPLED PLASMA OPTICAL EMISSION SPECTROMETRY (ICP-OES)

ABSTRACTIn this study, the contents of cadmium, lead, nickel, zinc and copper in bee honey samples were analysed by Varian ICP-OES. Honey samples which are collected from different regions of Kayseri at 2003. Although, honey samples which are collected from Kayseri were of good quality, they were not free of heavy metals. The results obtained for samples which are collected from the residential area were higher than those of the other areas as a result of pollution. Observed that, metal concentrations in honey samples ranged between 0,11 and 0,18 ppm for cadmium, between 0,15 and 0,66 ppm for copper, ranged between 2,2 and 11 ppm for zinc, ranged between 0,2 and 0,8 ppm for nickel and 0,18 ppm for and between 0,1 and 0,85 ppm for lead. As a result, the results of the present study indicate that mean intake of heavy metals due to consumption is generally tolerable daily intake is fairly satisfactory.
