Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of copper and silver in the plants on the mining area and the ingredients of essential oils. Plants collected from the same family, but they were collected randomly from various regions. The concentration of heavy metal in plant samples collected from Veshnave, Qom, Iran have been determined by Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (FAAS). The chemical composition of essential oil isolated by hydrodistillation from Tanacetum polycephalum and was determined using Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC- MS). Results obtained from unidirectional variance analysis suggest that there is a meaningful statistical difference between various regions.
