Abstract
Concentrations of Cr(VI) and Cr(III) were determined in plants, collected on unpolluted soils in different geographical areas. It was found that the concentration of Cr(VI) in plants correlated with the soluble fraction of Cr(VI) in soil, while Cr(III) concentration in plants is limited by concentration LMWOA in soil. It can therefore be concluded that the high level of Cr(III) in plants is also due to the direct absorptions of the species from soil rich in organic acids.
