The abundances of selected elements in different environmental compartments, namely soil, honey, and bee pollen, was determined in this study. For that purpose, sixteen soil and honey samples, and nine pollen samples were taken in the region of Mitrovica, Kosovo. The concentration of elements was measured by ICP-AES and ICP-MS. Pollution level concentrations of Pb, Zn, As, and Cd were observed in soil. The level of soil pollution was estimated by calculating pollution indices. Pb was also observed at high concentrations in honey, as was Cd and Pb in pollen. Pearson's correlation coefficients revealed mostly weak and moderate correlations of the concentrations of the eight selected elements among the soil, honey, and pollen samples. Several groups of elements with geogenic and anthropogenic origin were identified by hierarchical cluster analysis. The concentrations of selected heavy metals for soil and honey were compared to those in neighboring countries, and those for pollen with samples from Turkey, Serbia, and Jordan.
本研究旨在测定不同环境介质（土壤、蜂蜜和蜂花粉）中选定元素的丰度。为此，在科索沃米特罗维察地区采集了 16 个土壤和蜂蜜样本以及 9 个花粉样本。采用电感耦合等离子体原子发射光谱法（ICP-AES）和电感耦合等离子体质谱法（ICP-MS）测量了元素浓度。在土壤中观察到 Pb、Zn、As 和 Cd 的污染水平浓度。通过计算污染指数来评估土壤污染程度。在蜂蜜中也观察到 Pb、Cd 和 Pb 的高浓度，而在花粉中也观察到 Cd 和 Pb 的高浓度。皮尔逊相关系数显示，在土壤、蜂蜜和花粉样本中，八个选定元素的浓度之间存在大多是弱和中等程度的相关性。通过层次聚类分析，确定了具有地球成因和人为成因的几组元素。将选定重金属的土壤和蜂蜜浓度与邻国以及土耳其、塞尔维亚和约旦的花粉样本进行了比较。
