Abstract

Background and Objective: Environmental pollution emitted from industrial areas while enter the food chain can cause serious adverse health effects. Therefore, this study was conducted to use Ziziphus spina-christi and Prosopis cineraria leaves as bio-indicators of environmental pollution emitted from the complex of Steel Company. Materials and Methods: In this descriptive study, a total of 90 surface soil samples and also 90 leave samples were collected. After acid digestion of samples, the heavy metal contents were measured using atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Also, the Bioconcentration Factor (BCF) of metals were computed. All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS statistical package. Results: The highest content of the metals (mg/kg) with an average of 2180. 3 ± 202. 3 and 2237. 9 ± 315. 1 for Fe, 76. 6 ± 9. 6 and 114. 3 ± 4. 5 for Pb and 69. 2 ± 16. 8 and 107. 2 ± 6. 8 for Cd were found to be in Z. spina-christi and P. cineraria unwashed leaves respectively. Also, the BCF of all studied metals were higher than 1. Conclusion: Based on the values of BCF, it can be concluded that Z. spinachristi and P. cineraria can be considered as a suitable species for phytoextraction of Heavy metals in the most polluted regions including industrial and urban areas.
