In this study, the elemental concentrations of some spice plants gathered from Mut-Mersin in Turkey were analyzed by polarized energy dispersive x-ray fluorescence (PEDXRF) spectrometry. The analyzed spices are peppermint (Mentha piperita), thyme (Thymus vulgaris), and sumac (Rhus glabra). These samples are very often used in the preparation of Turkish foods. The spice samples are indispensable in foods for Turkish people. The results of the analysis show that each sample has different compositions, and some of these elements have a great benefit in human health. The spice samples results reveal that the PEDXRF method is more reasonably sensitive in the determination of the elemental composition of the plants.
