Özet

Copper and zinc were determined in the water and freshwater fish (Carasobarbus luteus) from the Tigris River, and its surrounding soils, wheat and mushrooms by using a Jobin Yvon model 24 Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectrometry (ICP-AES). The average contents of Cu and Zn in the river water, were found 0.03 mg L-1 and 0.14 mg L-1, and in the liver of fish were found approximately 454 mg kg-1 and 290 mg kg-1 respectively. All Cu and Zn values in the soils that irrigated with the river water, were found higher than the non irrigated soils in the same area. The similar results were observed in wheat and mushrooms, that near or far from the river.
