The levels of trace metals were determined in Moringa oleifera. The leave sample of Moringa Oleifera was analyzed for trace metals using atomic absorption spectrometry after dry ashing the sample at 350oC in furnace for 1hr. Generally, the plant accumulate metals in order Ni >Cu>Mn. The result revealed the accumulated amount of trace metals in leave sample Cu, Mn and Ni 2.8660±0.0436, 1.1050±0.0019 and 3.2002±0.0241 mg/kg respectively.

Abstract
The levels of trace metals were determined in Moringa oleifera. The leave sample of Moringa Oleifera was analyzed for trace metals using atomic absorption spectrometry after dry ashing the sample at 350oC in furnace for 1hr. Generally, the plant accumulate metals in order Ni >Cu>Mn. The result revealed the accumulated amount of trace metals in leave sample Cu, Mn and Ni 2.8660±0.0436, 1.1050±0.0019 and 3.2002±0.0241 mg/kg respectively.
