Abstract

This study describes the potential of synchrotron radiation X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy technique for the investigation of elements present in the parts of the medicinally important coriander plant: leaf and seed. For this, X-ray fluorescence spectra of the leaf and seed of coriander plants have been recorded by exciting synchrotron radiation of energy 13 keV. The analyses of the procured spectrum show the presence of elements: potassium, calcium, titanium, chromium, manganese, iron, nickel, copper, zinc, and arsenic. A calibration free approach, PyMca has been used for the quantitative estimation of the detected elements in the leaf and seed of the coriander plant.
