Toxic heavy metals are ubiquitous environmental contaminants that can detrimentally influence human well-being, especially in the pediatric population. This study investigated soil, dust, and moss contamination collected from six urban children's playground (parks 1 to 6) in Çankaya District with heavy metals (Cr, Cu, Cd, Ni, Pb, and Zn). The highest values of Cu (44.1 mg/kg), Ni (45.6 mg/kg), and Pb (44.2 mg/kg) were recorded from park dust. Moss samples showed higher values of Cr and Zn, respectively, as 68.7 mg/kg and 284.3 mg/kg. Of these, surface soil presented the lowest concentrations, with Zn showing the highest concentration at 259 mg/kg and Cd the lowest at 1.9 mg/kg. Moss showed the highest total metal load Σ=482.1 mg/kg, followed by dust Σ=457.9 mg/kg and soil Σ=388.3 mg/kg. Significant differences of p < 0.05 between the soil and other sample types, together with a strong correlation of R2 … |
