title: [Fluorine and lead content in selected vegetables grown within the range of emission of compounds containing these elements by the glass plant"Irena" in Wrocław].
abstract: By means of spectroscopy fluorine and lead were determined in selected vegetables gathered in 1990 from Workers' Gardening Plots "Transportowiec" lying about 500 m from the Irena glass plant and similar plots "Irena" situated about 2600 m from the emitters of the plant. The obtained results were compared with those of similar measurements in the preceding 8 years, and with analogous determinations in the vegetables gathered in 1989 from "Podzamcze" gardening plots in Szczytna in immediate vicinity of the glass plant "Sudety". The study extended over many years showed that in the vicinity of such plants, the soil, the vegetables and fruit are contaminated with fluorine and lead. Moving of "Irena" gardening plots from 50-350 m from the plant to a distance of 1800 m from it caused that only the parts of the vegetables above soil level contained higher amounts of fluorine and lead. Certain above-soil parts of the plants from the "Podzamcze" gardening plots contained fluorine in amounts exceeding the acceptable level. Most vegetables, both roots and higher parts, were contaminated with lead, indicating that the soil was contaminated with lead also.
