Abstract

In this study, the bioaccumulation sufficiency of plant Ceratophyllum submersum L. which is distributed in aquatic ecosystems against toxic metal ion was tested. In laboratory condition, plant was exposed to prepared stock solution of copper metal 1,0; 3,0;5,0; 5,0 and 7,0 mg/L concentration metal solutions in certain periods 24, 48, and72 hours and changing amount of accumulation of plants in depending on time and concentration was measured by atomic absorption spectrometer. The minimum uptake at 2.2 g fresh weight and 0.1 ppm concentration of copper metal was 4.54 µg/g of copper after 24 hours. And the maximum uptake at 1.8 g fresh weight and 4.0 ppm concentration was 92.13 µg/g after 48 hours. The minimum uptake at2.2 g fresh weight plant exposed to 0.1 ppm concentration of Cu+2 solution after 24 hours, the plant uptake was 4.54µg/g Cu+2. The maximum uptake at 1.8 g fresh weight plant exposed to 4.0 ppm concentration Cu+2 solutionafter 48 hours, the plant uptake was 92.13 µg/g Cu+2.

Ceratophyllum demersum L. Tilki kuyruğu bitkisi kullanılarak atıksulardan bakır metalinin akümülasyonu

Abstract

Bu çalışmada toksik metal iyonu olan bakır ağır metalinin suculeko sistemlerde yayılış gösteren Ceratophyllum submersum bitkisinin değişen zamana ve konsantrasyona bağlı biyo akümülasyon yeterlilikleri test edilmiştir. Bitkiler laboratuvar şartlarında bakır metalinin stok solusyonlarından 1.0,3.0,5.0 and 7.0 mg/L konsantrasyonlarda hazırlanan metal çözeltisiyle, belli zaman peryodlarında 24, 48 ve 72saat muamele edilmiştir. Veriler değerlendirildiğinde bitkinin farklı konsantrasyonlarda bakırın farklı sürelerde akümüle ettiği atomic absorbsiyon spektrofotometresiyle ölçülmüştür.Minimum uzaklaştırma 2.2 g tazeagırlıkta 0.1 ppm konsantrasyonda bakır metali, 24 saat sonra4.54 µg/g bakır ortamdan uzaklaştırlmaktadır. Maksimum uzaklaştırma 48 saat sonra 4.0 ppm de 1.8 g ağırlıkta yaş bitkiyle 92.13 µg/g
