Abstract in English
The samples of bee pollen were collected from inside and outside
the honey beehives of apiaries situated in five different locations of
Latakia; Al-Qardahah, Al-Haffeh, Jableh, Latakia city and Eastern
Entryway to Latakia during the autumn in 2014. The
concentrations of three heavy metals, zinc (Zn), lead (Pb), cadmium
(Cd) were determined in pollen by using atomic absorption.
