Samples of Solanum tuberosum L. and soils were collected in 2013 from roadside, centrical, rural, secondary roads and control area of five locations DerinNuyu, KaymaNlı, ÇardaN, Mazı, Zile in 1evşehir. In this study, Cd, Cr, Cu, 1i, PE and Zn accumulation in the collected soil samples was determined by ICP-OES equipment. The lowest and the highest levels of Cd (0.01-1.08 μgg-1 dw), Cr (1.16-62.68 μgg-1 dw), Cu (1.1-38.79 μgg-1 dw), Ni (1.29-63.41 μgg-1 dw), Pb (0.52-13.86 μgg-1 dw) and Zn (2.87-69.81 μgg-1 dw) in the soils have been determined. Levels of heavy metals in the soils were below the limits of the Turkey soil pollution control regulations standard (TSP, 24609). The accumulated heavy metals were quantified and their levels compared to the FAO/WHO Codex-Stan 179: 2003 contamination limits. The lowest and the highest levels of Cd (0.01-1.90 μgg-1 dw), Cr (0.08-0.98 μgg-1 dw), Cu (0.52-18.57 μgg-1 dw), Ni (0.02-5.35 μgg-1 dw), Pb (0.02-1.08 μgg-1 dw) and Zn (1.08-43.84 μgg-1 dw) in the potatoes have been determined. Ni was only found in the Sotatoes from 3 sites (KaymaNlı and Derinkuyu centre) and the level is above the FAO/WHO’s limit levels. As a result, PE, Cd, Cr, Cu and Zn concentrations in the potatoes samples taken from KaymaNlı and DerinNuyu were also found above the limits. |
