Fresenius Environmental Bulletin, 14(9), 773-776.1018-46191610-2304http://hdl.handle.net/11452/24852Lead and cadmium were determined by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry in liver, kidney and muscle of horses in Bursa, a highly industrialized city in Turkey. Mean levels of lead were 254 +/- 0.71 mg/kg, 3.59 +/- 1.31 mg/kg and 5.98 +/- 2.63 mg/kg (fresh weight), in liver, kidney and muscle samples, respectively, and those of cadmium were 10.62 +/- 2.90 mg/kg, 53.34 +/- 17.51 mg/kg and 0.21 +/- 0.02 mg/kg, in liver, kidney and muscle, respectively. These levels were higher than acceptable in other European countries and show that people and animals living in Bursa are subject to heavy metal pollution.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessEnvironmental sciences & ecologyLeadCadmiumHorse tissuesBursaTurkeyHeavy-metalsAnimalsEnvironmentKidneyRegionCattleOrgansPlantSoilsLiverBursa [Bursa (PRV)]Bursa [Turkey]Eastern hemisphereEurasiaWorldAnimaliaEquidaeEquus caballusBioaccumulationUngulateArticle0002316053000042-s2.0-24344477097773776149Environmental sciencesMeats; Average Daily Intake; Cadmium
