Determination of Rare Earth Elements in Lotus Seed from Rare Earth Mining Area by ICP-MS Simultaneously

摘要

To investigate the effects of private dug rare earth elements without planning on environment and food safety from rare earth mining area, contents of rare earth elements in lotus seed from rare-earth mining area was detected by ICP-MS (inductively coupled plasma source mass spectrometry). The results showed that the content of rare earth elements in lotus seed was at a low level which was not higher than that from reference area, so we should overly concern about harm of rare earth in rare earth mining area.
