Abstract

Eighteen trace elements in biological material [grass /Imperata cylindrica/, mimosa plant /Mimosa pudica/, rice] by neutron activation method were determined. In the comparative analysis, we found the content of the same elements was different in the each material, although they were collected at the same place and the same sampling method was applied.
