Plant samples were collected and processed following the established scientific methods, while concentrations of metal(loid)s were determined using the ICP-AES. Distinct patterns in the metal(loid)s distribution in the linden parts were revealed, which varied depending on the environmental pollution levels, highlighting obvious differences between the polluted and unpolluted zones.enLindenMedicinal PlantsEnvironmental PollutionCopperLeadArsenicconferenceObject
