Selected heavy metals (Cr, Pb, Cd) uptake in Cymbopogon Citratus plant by using atomic absorption spectroscopy
Cymbopogon citratus is known as lemongrass in Asia. Usually, people will use stem’s part of Cymbopogon citratus for cooking and medicinal purpose. This research is to analyze the selected heavy metals distribution such as cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr) and lead (Pb) in this plant by using Atomic Absorp...
