Popis: The contents of 17 elements in thirteen strawberry cultivars grown in the 5 districts of Southern Serbia were determined using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). The most abundant elements are K (875-1148 mg •kg−1 fresh weight), P (307-664 mg •kg−1 fresh weight), Ca (192-256 mg •kg−1 fresh weight) and Mg (111-189 mg •kg−1 fresh weight) in all samples. Strawberries were also found to be a good source of Sr (8.05-18.6 mg •kg−1 fresh weight) and Fe (3.09-10.4 mg •kg−1 fresh weight). The contents of As and Cd were below the detection limit (0.0828 mg •kg−1 and 0.0205 mg •kg−1, respectively) in all strawberry samples, while the contents of Ni, Cr and Cu were below the recommended tolerable levels proposed by Joint Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and World Health Organization Expert Committee on Food Additives, and did not a pose a health risk for the consumer. The application of Duncan’s test showed significant differences between contents of ana...
