Abstract The objective of the study is multi elemental analysis of four indigenous Ethiopian tuber crops using instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) technique in order to get scientific evidences about the status of essential, trace and non-essential elemental compositions. The samples were collected from Southern and South-western parts of Ethiopia. The irradiation and measurement were performed by using irradiation and counting facilities of the Nigeria Nuclear Reactor-1 (NIRR-1) and a HPGe detector setup at the Centre for Energy Research and Training (CERT), Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, Nigeria. A total of 17 elements were determined at various concentration levels. The highest concentrations of K, Mg, Mn and Zn were found in Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott, whereas; the concentrations of essential and trace elements; Ca, K, Mg, Na, Cl, Mn, and Zn were found to be high in the native Coccinia abyssinica (Lam.) Cogn tuber. The estimated daily intake values of the constituent elements from the consumption of these crops are below upper tolerable limits set by international organizations such as WHO and FAO.

Emission Studies

Selected number of anti-diabetic medicinal plant leaves has been characterized by accelerator based particle-induced X-ray emission (PIXE) technique. Validity of the technique was assured by analyzing certified plant reference materials (CRMs). A large number of trace elements like Ti , V , Cr , Mn , Fe , Co , Ni , Cu , Zn , Rb , Sr and Pb are found to be present in these studied leaf samples with variable proportions. The concentrations of elements like K and Ca are quantified in percentage level whereas other elements are found to be in parts per million levels. Among the studied samples, the leaves of Methi are found to be containing maximum amount of trace elements.
