Abstract in English
The concentrations of copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), nickel (Ni), lead (Pb),
cadmium (Cd) in dead and live honeybees were determined by using
atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The samples were collected from
beehives of stationary apiariessituated in five different locations of
Latakia; Qardahah (Asitamo), Haffeh (Dabba), Jableh (Snouper),Latakia
city (Al-Ramel Al-Shamali\ Autostrade of Al-Jomhouria) and Eastern
Entryway to Latakia (behind Al-Jood factory) , during the spring and
autumn in 2014.
