dc.description.abstractNaphthalene (Nap) belongs to the group of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and is considered as the simplest compound (it consists of two benzene rings). The aim of this work was to determine the content of Nap in the unwashed leaves and stems of poison ivy (PI). The samples were collected from nine locations in the area of Bor municipality, situated at different distances from the main source of pollution, i.e. from the metallurgical complex in the city of Bor, containing also the city heating plant. The highest concentration of Nap was found in stems of PI at the site S (66.63 μg/kg), while in the leaves was at site BN (45.89 μg/kg). Obtained results for the concentration of Nap in PI samples from each location were processed using factor R. Based on the calculated values for factor R, it can be concluded that at the sites FJ (2.05) and BN (1.39) closest to the metallurgical complex, and at rural sites SN (1.28), and O (1.70), the pollution of atmospheric origin was the greatest; also, it can be supposed that the proximity of the city heating plant and smelter was responsible for the increased R values (R>1) at the sites from the urban/industrial zone, while increased R values in the rural zone were the result of domestic heating. In both zones, the traffic was also one of the possible sources of Nap. There is a possibility that plants absorbed Nap not only from the atmosphere but also from the soil.
