Abstract<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The concentrations of copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), nickel\n(Ni), lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd) in propolis and bees wax were determined by using atomic\nabsorption spectrophotometry. The samples were collected from five different\nlocations of Latakia; Qardahah (Asitamo), Haffeh (Dabba), Jableh (Snouper), Latakia\ncity (Al-Ramel Al-Shamali\\ Autostrade of Al-Jomhouria) and Eastern Entryway to\nLatakia, during the spring and autumn in 2014. The results showed that there\nwere significant differences in the concentrations of all tested elements\nbetween the locations, it was also demonstrated significant differences between\nthe mean concentrations of all elements in propolis and  bee wax except cadmium. The concentration of\nnickel, zinc and lead were significantly higher in propolis than bees wax, except\nthe concentration of copper which was high \nin  bees wax. The concentration of\ncopper, zinc, nickel and lead was similar in both spring and autumn, unlike the\nconcentration of cadmium in autumn (0.019 ppm) which was higher than in spring (0.009 ppm).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
