چکیده
Therefore fruits and vegetables are very useful for the maintenance of health as a preventive treatment of various diseases (D’ mello, 2003). The presence of heavy metals may have a negative influence on the quality of vegetables and fruits causing changes to their taste and smell. The term heavy metals to any metallic elements that has a relative density greater than 4gcm -3 . In the group of heavy metals one can distinguish both the element necessary for living organism and elements whose physiological role is unknown and those that are neutral for plants, animals and humans. Accumulation of heavy metals by vegetables may depend on plant species as well as temperature, moisture, organic matter, Ph, nutrient availability and concentration of heavy metals. The total concentration of heavy metals in soil and water however varies from local to regional and further to continental level. The uptake and accumulation of Cd, Cr, Fe were higher International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences ISSN: 2319-7706 Volume 6 Number 8 (2017) pp. 2909-2914 Journal homepage: http://www.ijcmas.com
