Assessment of Toxic and Trace Elements in Multifloral Honeys from Two Regions of Continental Croatia

Element concentrations were measured in multifloral honeys sampled from Central and Eastern Croatia. The mean levels of elements ranged from (µg/kg): Al 323–7228, Cu 103–1033, Cr 14.4–139, Fe 295–2336, Ni 122–523, Pb 9.65–154, Zn 442–2025. In all samples, As and Cd content were below the LOD values....
