Abstract The aim in this work was to monitor heavy metals in plants of elderberry species. The objective of the research was to identify the actual concentrations of heavy metals in the fruits and leaves of the studied elderberry species. The need to determine deviations in the content of heavy metals in various parts of plants arose because the current ecological situation in Belgorod’s area requires special attention. The presence and concentration of heavy metals in different elderberry species and different parts of plants vary greatly and have the following features. Increased magnesium content was observed in almost all elderberry species, especially in red-fruited (Sambucus racemosa ‘Aurea’, S. sibirica Nakai, S. racemosa L., S. racemosa ‘Plumosa’, S. coreana Nakai), And its concentration much higher in fruits than in leaves. The highest deviation of the magnesium content from the norm was noted in the fruits and leaves of S. sibirica (2 and 1.5 times, respectively). Black elderberry species (S. nigra L., S. canadensis L., S. canadensis ‘Plumosa’) have a lower magnesium concentration in fruits and leaves. On the other hand, the concentration of copper in fruits and leaves in elderberry species is many times higher than the norm.

The aim of the research is to study the intensity of heavy metals accumulation in milk thistle leaf mass under fertilization with the latest types of fertilizers and to assess the environmental safety of such raw materials. Two experiments were laid in the research: the effect of fertilizing milk thistle with organo-mineral fertilizer Growth-concentrate on the intensity heavy metals accumulation by its leaf mass; the effect of fertilizing milk thistle with chelated fertilizers Phosphorus-chelate and Potassium-chelate on the intensity on heavy metals accumulation by the leaf mass. The use of a chelated Phosphorus chelate fertilizer for the fertilization of milk thistle crops leads to a 1.1 times decrease in the contamination of its leaf mass with cadmium and copper in comparison with the option without fertilizing its crops, and the increase in the concentration of lead and zinc compared to the control is insignificant and is within the range errors of experience. The use of fertilization of crops of milk thistle chelated fertilizer Potassium-chelate helps to reduce the contamination of its leaf mass with cadmium compared to the control, and the change in its contamination with copper is within the margin of error. At the same time, replacing the Growth-concentrate fertilizer with Phosphorus-chelate or Potassium-chelate when fertilizing milk thistle crops will lead to a decrease in the contamination of its leaf mass with lead, cadmium and copper, but will increase the contamination with zinc, compared to the control. The most environmentally safe leaf raw material of milk thistle in terms of lead, cadmium and copper content will be observed when fertilizing its crops with chelated fertilizers Phosphorus-chelate, and in terms of zinc content – when fertilizing with organo-mineral fertilizer Growth-concentrate. It is advisable to use Phosphorus-chelate fertilizer for the plant fertilization to reduce the contamination of the leaf mass of the medicinal raw material of milk thistle with heavy metals, in particular cadmium – by 9 % and copper – by 11 %,. To reduce contamination of the leaf mass with zinc by 81 %, it is recommended to use the organic-mineral fertilizer Growth-concentrate. Key words: milk thistle, medicinal raw materials, environmental safety, heavy metals, pollution, fertilizers.

The heavy metal concentration (e.g., Mn, Zn, Pb and Ni) were determined in soft tissues and shells of freshwater mussels (Lamellidens marginalis) at the various sites of Dhanmondi lake, Dhaka, Bangladesh between the period April, 2010 and March 2011. The heavy metal concentrations in shells and soft tissues of freshwater mussels were tended to vary significantly among sampling points and seasons in Dhanmondi Lake. Distribution of heavy metals in shell and soft tissue of Lamellidens marginalis followed the order Mn>Zn>Pb>Ni, respectively. According to the t-test, level of manganese, zinc and lead under investigation between shell and tissue showed statistically significant differences [Mn: t=-11.387; df=16; P=0.000; Zn: t=-2.590; df=16; P=0.020 and Pb: t=-2.8679; df=16; P=0.011].
