Monitoring The Content of Heavy Metals in The Soil and Wines from Different Wine-Growing Areas of Romania

Determination of heavy metals in soil and wine is very important for quality consumer health, but at the same time it a complementary tool differentiating wines according to their geographical origin. In this work, soils ten brands originated from four major wine-growing areas Romania (Iaşi, Babadag, Ştefăneşti Blaj) were considered performing multielement (Cr, Ni, Cu, As, Pb, Hg, V, Sr, Mn, Zn, Fe) investigation order assess regional specificity. Heavy found investigated below limits imposed by European standards (O.I.V.) elements concentrations following trend: Zn>Fe>Mn>Sr>Ni>Cr>Cu>Pb>V>Hg>As. For analyzed, content was be maximum permitted limit, except Cu (135.45 mg/kg) Iaşi vineyard, which limit. The high values obtained copper may result different treatments with Bordelaise solution vine. CA, Mn Hg observed research that they are predominantly natural Based on our results, distinction has been made between origin, considering specific discrimination Ni Stefănesti vineyard (Muntenia region), Cr Babadag (Dobrogea Sr V (region Moldova), respectively Fe Zn Blaj (Transilvania region).
