Abstract

The uptake of heavy metals is the main topic of this study. Find out how much lead, cadmium, and other heavy elements are in the soil and guava trees in Rosetta. Therefore, this study's goal is to ascertain the concentration of heavy metals in the guava's fruits, leaves, stems, and roots as well as in the soil cultivar Psidium guajava L. The research was conducted in Rosetta, Egypt. Atomic absorption spectroscopy was used to determine the presence of heavy metals in soil and plant parts. It was found that the soil was poor in copper and the concentration of heavy metals in the soil was generally low. It did not reach the level of toxicity. Cadmium was found in the leaves of the plant. Nickel was also found in all plant parts examined and its percentage varied from 1.2 to 22.4 mg/kg. Agricultural soil contains a percentage of lead. Lead was found in the roots of plants, while manganese was found in all its parts. Copper, iron and zinc have also been found in all parts of the guava plant. In conclusion, the concentrations of heavy metals in both soils and Rosetta guava were so low that they did not cause toxicity to the plants and did not exceed the critical limit. The uptake of heavy metals is The main topic of this study. Find out how much lead, cadmium, and other heavy elements are in The soil and guava tree in Rosetta. Thus, The aim of this study is to determine The concentration of heavy metals in The soil and in fruits, leaves, stem and roots of The guava cultivar psidium guajava L. The research was conducted in Rosetta, Egypt. Atomic absorption spectroscopy was used to determine The presence of heavy metals in soil and plant parts. It was found that The soil was poor in copper and The concentration of heavy metals in The soil was generally low. It did note reach The level of toxicity.
