In this study was conducted to determine the macro, trace elements and some heavy metal contents growing and cultivated some edible medicinal fruits and herbs in the Eastern Black Sea Region, Turkey. The plant materials included in this study contained macro (N, P, K, Ca, Mg), trace elements (Fe, Zn, Cu, Mn, B) and heavy metals (Al, As, Ba, Cd, Co, Cr, Mo, Ni, Pb, Se) amounts were determined by Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES). According to the elemental analyses, it was determined that there were statistically significant differences in mineral and heavy metal contents depending on the plant species, parts and growing conditions. This work may contribute to knowledge of the macro, trace and heavy elements contents of plants which are of some medicinal fruit and herb.

Türkiye'de Fonksiyonel Gıda Olarak Tüketilen Tıbbi Meyve ve Bitkilerde Bazı Makro, Eser ve Ağır Elementlerin Belirlenmesi

Öz

Bu çalışma Doğu Karadeniz Bölgesinde doğal olarak yetişen ve kültürü yapılan bazı tıbbi özellikli yenilebilir meyve bitkilerin makro, iz ve ağır metal içeriklerinin belirlenmesine yönelik yürütülmüştür. Bu çalışmada yer alan bitki materyallerindeki makro (N, P, K, Ca, Mg), iz (Fe, Zn, Cu, Mn, B) ve ağır metaller (Al, As, Ba, Cd, Co, Cr, Mo, Ni, Pb, Se) İndüktif Olarak Eşleşmiş Plazma-Optik Emüsyon Spektroskopisi (ICP-OES) ile belirlenmiştir. Yapılan elementel analizlerine göre, bitki türü, kısımları ve yetişme koşullarına göre mineral ve ağır metal içeriklerinde istatistiki olarak önemli farklılıklar içerdiği tespit edilmiştir. Bu çalışma bazı tıbbi meyve bitkilerinin makro, iz element ve ağır metal içeriklerinin bilinmesine katkı sağlayabilir.
