Heavy metals pass from the soil to plants and negatively affect the development of plants such as sugar beet.In our study aimed to investigate the accumulation of heavy metals on sugar beet plants grown in Kayseri. Six different locations were selected: Kesik, Dağılgan, Hacılımezarlığı, Kıraç Tepe, Hacıbektaş and the control area (Kilcan). Leaf, beet, root and soil samples were taken from Beta vulgaris plant. Heavy metal contents were analyzed using ICP-MS device. In terms of sugar beet consumption in Kayseri province, determining heavy metal accumulation and health risks will be very important in terms of these metals. Heavy metal concentration levels in sugar beet samples collected from the region are as follows; copper (Cu) > nickel (Ni) > chromium (Cr) > arsenic (As) > lead (Pb) > cadmium (Cd). When As, Cd and Cr elements are compared with the limit values determined by WHO/FAO, it is seen that they are within the permissible limits.Cu (3.25 μg g−1), Ni (2.49 μg g−1) and Pb (0.26 μg g−1) indicate the potential for negative contributions to health through sugar beet consumption. The study reveals health concerns in terms of heavy metal contents of Cu, Ni and Pb elements evaluated in sugar beet samples grown in Yeşilhisar, Kayseri province.

Beta vulgaris L.'e (Şeker Pancarı) Topraktan Ağır Metal Transferinin Belirlenmesi ve İnsan Sağlığı Risklerinin Değerlendirilmesi

Öz

Ağır metaller topraktan bitkilere geçerek, şeker pancarı gibi bitkilerin gelişimini olumsuz etkilemektedirler. Çalışmamızda Kayseri'de yetiştirilen şeker pancarı bitkilerinde ağır metal birikiminin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Kesik, Dağılgan, Hacılımezarlığı, Kıraç Tepe, Hacıbektaş ve kontrol alanı (Kilcan) olmak üzere, altı farklı lokasyon seçilmiştir.
Beta vulgaris bitkisinin yaprak, gövde, kök kısımlarından ve yetiştiği toprak örnekleri alınmıştır. Ağır metal içerikleri ICP-MS cihazı kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Kayseri ilinde şeker pancarı tüketimi açısından ağır metal birikiminin ve sağlık risklerinin belirlenmesi, bu metaller açısından oldukça önemli olacaktır. Bölgeden toplanan şeker pancarı örneklerinde ağır metal konsantrasyon düzeyleri şu şekildedir; bakır (Cu) > nikel (Ni) > krom (Cr) > arsenik (As) > kurşun (Pb) > kadmiyum (Cd). As, Cd ve Cr elementleri WHO/FAO tarafından belirlenen sınır değerlerle karşılaştırıldığında izin verilen sınırlar içerisinde olduğu görülmektedir. Cu (3.25 μg g−1) Ni (2.49 μg g−1) ve Pb (0.26 μg g−1) değerleri incelendiğinde, sonuçlar şeker pancarı tüketiminin sağlığa olumsuz katkı potansiyeline işaret etmektedir. Çalışma, Kayseri ili Yeşilhisar'da yetiştirilen şeker pancarı örneklerinde değerlendirilen ağır metal içeriklerine ilişkin Cu, Ni ve Pb elementleri açısından sağlık endişelerini ortaya koymaktadır.
