description | The aim of this research was to assess the concentration of lead and zinc in chosen medicinal plants obtained from recreational areas of Katowice as well as to compare the phytoaccumulation properties of these plants. Lead and zinc concentration in plants and soil was indicated with flame and flameless atomisation atomic absorption spectroscopy AAS method. Phytoaccumulation properties of examined plant species were compared using the coefficients: enrichment factor, phytoaccumulation factor and coefficient of specific relative accumulation. |
