Nine trace elements (Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Pb, Cd, Cr, Ni, Cc) in eight mushroom species of Turkish origin were determined, using flame and graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry after microwave digestion. The mushrooms were collected from Kastamonu, Turkey. The ranges of element concentrations for Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Pb, Cd, Cr, Ni and Co were 180-407, 12.9-93.3; 40.3-64.4, 7.1-48.6, 6.9-14.1, 0.10-0.71, 1.2-4.2, 8,2-26.7 and 1.0-7.4 mg/kg, respectively.
