Determination of some heavy metals in extraction of plants by using AAS Technique

Abstract

The present study was conduct to determination of heavy metals in the contents of  aqueous  and organic solvents extracts of plants leaves. Five different types of plant leaves were Nerium oleander , Conocarpus lancifolins , Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehnh, Vicia, Jasminum Humile collected from different positions at Nasiriya zone were analyzed for heavy metals. The cold aqueous and organic solvents extraction method by using Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy AAS technique was used to extraction .The general Main levels of heavy metals in the total analyzed samples were arranged as Fe> Zn> Pb> Cu > Cr respectively. The study showed that there is an ideal solvent to extract all the elements in the above varieties study plants ,and the results compared with standard ranges and another studies.
