A systematic assessment of tea was done for heavy metal poisoning
using Double Beam UV-Visible spectrophotometer and AAS. The tea were procured
from the market and analyzed for seven heavy metals viz. Pb, Cu, Fe, Ni, Cr, Zn
and Mn. The study revealed that the mean concentration of the analyzed heavy
metal showed the following order, Mn > Zn > Fe > Cu > Pb > Cr > Ni T. The
samples were reported to be contaminated with highly toxic lead and copper which
demands a firm concern and check so as to prevent our present as well as future
from the upcoming diseases and ill effects.
