The bioaccumulation of
metalloids especially arsenic (As) concentrations in urban and suburban
environments and bioaccumulation of As in natural and exotic tree and shrub
species are not well-documented. One of the most significant sources of As are
vehicular emissions and coal combustion. The bioaccumulation of As in some
natural and exotic tree and shrub species in Samsun and Atakum in Central Black
Sea Region of Turkey is studied. Most of the studies about As pollution were
carried out in heavily polluted environments such as lead smelters. However,
high As concentrations were found for some natural and exotic tree and shrub
species in urban and suburban environments in this study. It has been found that
M. grandiflora twigs had the highest
As concentrations in all of the studied species. Leaf As concentrations were
found to be high in E. camaldulensis,
P. abies, A. cyanophylla, C. vitalba,
and L. vulgare as compared to twigs
and flowers, while twigs of O. europaea
and M. grandiflora had high As
concentrations in Samsun center. E.
camaldulensis and A. cyanophylla
had high As concentrations in their leaves in Atakum similar to Samsun city
center. M. grandiflora twigs and L.
vulgare leaves can be used for biomonitoring studies due to high As
concentrations in their tissues.

Samsun İli’ndeki Bazı Doğal ve Egzotik Ağaç ve Çalı Türlerinde Arsenik Birikimi

Öz

Metalloidlerin özellikle arsenik
(As) biyoakümülasyonunun kentsel ve kırsal alanlardaki doğal ve egzotik ağaç ve
çalı türlerindeki konsantrasyonları pek çalışılmamıştır. Arsenik metaloidinin
en önemli kaynaklarından biri taşıt emisyonları ve kömür yanmasıdır. Samsun ilindeki
bazı doğal ve egzotik ağaç ve çalı türlerinde arsenik metaloidinin biyolojik
birikimi incelenmiştir. Kirlilik gibi çalışmaların çoğu kurşun kirleticileri
gibi yoğun kirlenmiş ortamlarda gerçekleştirilmiştir. Ancak, bu çalışmada
kentsel ve kırsal ortamlarda bulunan bazı doğal ve egzotik ağaç ve çalı türlerinde
yüksek arsenik konsantrasyonları bulunmuştur. İncelenen tüm türlerden, M. grandiflora dallarının en yüksek As
konsantrasyonnuna sahip olduğu bulunmuştur. E.
camaldulensis, P. abies, A. cyanophylla, C. vitalba ve L. vulgare türlerinde dal ve çiçeklere göre yapraklarda arsenik
konsantrasyonu yüksek iken, O. europaea
ve M. grandiflora türlerinde ise dalların
yüksek arsenik konsantrasyonlarına sahip olduğu bulunmuştur. Samsun şehir
merkezi ve Atakum'da E. camaldulensis
ve A. cyanophylla türlerinin
yapraklarında benzer yüksek oranda arsenik konsantarasyonu bulunmuştur. M. grandiflora dalları ve L. vulgare yapraklarının yüksek arsenik
konsantrasyonlarına sahip olmasından dolayı bu türler biyo-izleme çalışmalarında
kullanılabileceği belirlenmiştir.
