Abstract

The ease of employing energy dispersive x-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) analysis to studies relating to the metal content of soils and to the metal uptake in plants has been demonstrated in an investigation concerning the effect of automative pollution on the abundance of about 12 elements accumulated in the leaves of palm trees and in the surrounding soil. Elemental concentrations showed that the EDXRF method is useful and sensitive for measuring the pollution of plant material.
