Determination of bioavailable forms of heavy metals in the soils from selected allotment gardens in Łódź
The contents of bioavailable forms of selected metals (Cd, Pb, Cu, Mn, Fe) in samples of soil from six allotment gardens in Łódź were determined. The total amounts of the metals in some kinds of ground vegetables (carrots, red beets, leeks) grown in these gardens were examined. The results obtained were compared to legal standards.
Oznaczono zawartość przyswajalnych form wybranych metali (Cd, Pb, Cu, Mn, Fe) w próbkach gleb z sześciu pracowniczych ogrodów działkowych w Łodzi. Wykonano analizę całkowitej zawartości wymienionych metali w kilku gatunkach warzyw gruntowych (marchew, buraki, pory), pobranych z tych ogrodów. Wyniki porównano z obowiązującymi normami.
The study was commissioned by the Łódź City Office Department of Environmental Protection (No 2/F/98). The authors wish to thank Mr. Jan Diehl, the director of the Łódź City Office Department of Environmenlal Protection for providing financial support for the study.
