Abstract
In this investigation, the concentration levels of potassium, calcium, iron, nickel and cadmium for three Chrysolina species were measured in the region of Erzurum (Turkey) located at latitude 40°17Ⲡnorth and longitude 41°17Ⲡeast. The concentrations measured by energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) spectrometry were analysed. Photons of 59.5 keV and 5.9 keV emitted, respectively, by an annular 241Am and 55Fe radioactive source were used to excite the characteristic X-rays of various elements present in the insect samples. These results are presented and discussed in this paper.
