are valuable source of vitamins, minerals and fibers important for healthy   human nutrition. However, an increased level of heavy metals in vegetables   has been noticed in recent years. This study was conducted with an aim to   analyze content of heavy metals, cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), and chromium (Cr)   in 11 vegetable species which are the most common in human diet. Vegetables   were collected from three green markets (Limanska, Futoška and Riblja pijaca)   in Novi Sad, during September and October, from 2009 to 2011. Heavy metal   contents were analyzed in edible parts of tomato, potato, spinach, onion,   beetroot, parsley, parsnip, carrot, cauliflower, pepper and broccoli using   atomic absorption spectrophotometer (Varian, AAS 240FS). The results showed   statistically significant differences in element concentrations among   analyzed vegetables. In general, the highest metal pollution was observed in   the year of 2011. Spinach was found to contain the highest metals content -   0.89 μg/g for Cd, 5.81 μg/g for Pb, and 3.67 μg/g for Cr. According to   Serbian official regulations, 18.18% of all analyzed species exceeded maximum   permissible level for Cd, 9.09% for Pb, while for Cr these limits are not   defined. Elevated content of heavy metals in vegetables might be related to   soil contamination, atmospheric depositions during transportation and   marketing. Thus, a continuous monitoring of vegetables on markets should be   performed in order to prevent potential health risks to consumers
