Özet:

In this research, the concentrations of essential metals (Mn, Zn, Cr, Cu, Co), toxic metals (Cd, Pb) and some minerals (Al, Ca, K, Na, Fe, Mg) were determined in raw cow's milk and water samples collected from 3 different regions at 3 different periods (November-December, February-March and April-May). The regions are from those areas that are close to heavy industry plants (Yeniçiftlik), food producing plants (Gümüşçay) and highways (Şakirbey) in BigacountyofÇanakkaleprovince,Turkey. Metals and mineral contents of the samples were determined by using inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). This study showed that heavy metal concentrations in the two most important liquid nutrition were found to differ from region to region due to environmental factors such as rainfall and industrialization. However, for mineral concentrations in the water and milk samples, no change was observed according to regional pollution parameters.
