“…For example, the entry of positive ions corresponds to the release of protons or any other positive ions outside the cell (15). The results of the current study agree with many previous studies in the ability of this plant to accumulate heavy metals such as lead, iron, chromium and other metals (16).…”

Celery is one of the most important table plants in the world, this plant tends to collect many minerals from the surrounding environment, and one of these minerals is lead and chrome, which they considered toxic metals if they accumulate in this plant and accordingly three different areas were chosen for the cultivation of this plant. It was divided into areas contaminated with lead and chromium, which were close to the cement factory street and Bahr al-Najaf area polluted with sewage water and its air polluted by the smoke of bricks. The celery leaves and the soil planted in this sites were collected in December of the year 2020, for three replicates from each region, they were digested and the concentration of lead and chromium were detected. The results showed that the concentration of studied elements in the soil and plants of Bahr Al-Najaf < Al Ma’mal Street < Al Bu Hadari, and this difference was significant (< 0.05). Also, the results showed that the biological concentration of these elements were large in Bahr Al-Najaf area compared to Al-Ma'mal Street and Al-Bu Hadari area. Accordingly, the study recommends not to plant crops in polluted areas and the necessity of chalking the concentration of these elements of the soil and the surrounding environments of the plants before starting cultivation.

Celery and parsnip are highly valuable root vegetables and medical plants all over the world. Beneficial effect of plants on human health is connected not only with high content of biologically active compounds but also with specific levels of minerals reflecting geochemical characteristics of habitat, climate and genetic peculiarities. Using ICP-MS method comparative evaluation of 25 minerals content in roots of celery (Egor and Dobrinya cvs) and parsnip (Krugly, Bely Aist, Zhemchug cvs) was achieved. Similar high levels of all macro-elements except Na and Mg were demonstrated for these crops. Contrary to celery, parsnip contains 89 times lower concentrations of sodium and 1.6 time lower content of Mg. In identical environmental conditions celery significantly exceeds parsnip in accumulation of Fe (1.5 times), Mn (1.7 times). Cr (8.6 times), Se (6 times) and Sr (1.8 times). Consumption of 100 g fresh celery roots in human diet provides 48-61% of Cr daily requirement level, 17% of B, about 10% of Fe and 2030% of adequate consumption level. High levels of Sr in celery roots is beneficial for health of human bones but may be harmful in regions with elevated radioactive pollution.
