Accumulation copper (Cu) in the Halimione portulacoides (L.) Aellen and Suaeda prostrata subsp. prostrata pall. taxa, spreading in Ayvalık saltern (Balıkesir-Turkey)

Abstract

The aim of this present study was to compare the level of copper (Cu) in the soils and different organs (root, stem, leaves) of Halimione portulacoides (L.) Aellen and Suaeda prostrata subsp. prostrata Pall. taxa which are widespread distribution in every locality of from Ayvalık saltern in Balıkesir. Each month samples were collected from determined seven stations, from soil dam surrounding saltern. Analyses were done by using Perkin Elmer Analyst 700 Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (FAAS) device. The level of Cu in H. portulacoides (0.003-0.925 ppm) and S. prostrata subsp. prostrata (0.004-0.896 ppm) was observed to be quite different. Levels of copper in the soils were below the limits of the Turkey soil pollution control regulations standard (TSP, 24609). The levels of Cu were found in the soil in H. portulacoides was 0.862-1.111 ppm, S. prostrata subsp. prostrata 0.858-1.111 ppm.

Ayvalık tuzlasında yayılış gösteren Halimione portulacoides (l.) ve Suaeda prostrata subsp. prostrata pall. taksonlarında bakır (Cu) birikimi (Balıkesir-Türkiye)

Abstract

Çalışmamızın amacı Balıkesir ilinde bulunan Ayvalık tuzlasının her lokalitesinde yayılış gösteren ve yoğun olarak bulunan Halimione portulacoides (L.) Aellen ve Suaeda prostrata subsp. prostrata Pall. taksonlarının topraklarında ve farklı organlarında (kök, gövde ve yaprak) bakır (Cu) seviyesini karşılaştırmaktır. Her ay tuzlayı çevreleyen toprak set üzerinde belirlenen yedi istasyondan örnekler alınmıştır. Analizler Perkin Elmer Analyst 700 model alevli atomik absorbsiyon Spektrofotometresi (FAAS) cihazı ile yapıldı. Cu seviyesi H. portulacoides (0.003-0.925 ppm) ve S. prostrata subsp. prostrata (0.004-0.896 ppm) oldukça farklı olduğu gözlemlenmiştir. Topraktaki Cu değerleri; H. portulacoides’de 862-1.111 ppm, S. prostrata subsp. prostrata’da ise 0.858-1.111 ppm olarak bulunmuş olup, Türkiye toprak kirliliği kontrol yönetmeliği değerlerinin altında çıkmıştır.
