Summary: | The levels of heavy metals like lead, cadmium, zinc, chromium, iron, nickel etc., were examined in Vicia fababeans(broad beans) sold in supermarkets from Timisoara, Romania. The beans have been analyzed for fife heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Cu, Ni and Zn) using AAS. Research findings show that some of the samples present contamination with lead, cadmium and a very high content of nickel. Statistical analysis reveals the tendency of broad beans to be a good bio accumulator of nickel. |
