Özet:

 Food security is a priority issue for sustainable global development. Metal uptake by plants could have a significant impact on crop quality in areas of rapid industrialization with high fallout of airborne particles. In this study, concentrations of some heavy metals copper, Cu; zinc, Zn; and lead, Pb in flour samples supplied in Çorum, defined as one of the New Industry Focus, were investigated using inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry ICP-OES to determine the heavy metal contamination. The results showed that the concentration of Pb in all samples examined exceeded the maximum permissible limit. To monitor the increase in Pb concentration and its relationship with air pollution, a two-year laboratory experiment was conducted. It was found that the increase in Pb concentration of about 47 and 77 for two flour samples was consistent with the increase in annual average particulate matter with diameter 10 micrometers PM10 concentrations 55 and 82 obtained from two stations.
