title: [Determination of Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn, Pb and Hg levels in herbal drugs using the radionuclide x-ray fluorescence method].
abstract: The present paper reports the results of determinations of both biogenic (Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn) and toxic (Pb, Hg) metals in the following plant drugs: Herba melissae, Herba urticae, Herba menthae piperitae, Herba equiseti, Herba agrimoniae, Flos tiliae, and Folium betulae. The drugs are used in human medicine in the form of tea both separately or in mixtures. The samples analyzed came from pharmacies, cultivators as well as collection in the nature. The radionuclide X-ray method was used to identify and determine the metals.
