dc.description.abstractThe main objects of current work is to find the concentrations of lead, copper and mercury in the milk of human collected from Muridke Pakistan, to investigate the toxic effect of Pb, Cu and Hg with the help of Spectroscopy. Human milk is actually the important part of diet for newborns in Pakistan. Human milk contains essential nutrients and metals required for growth of child. Unluckily, human milk becomes an origin of some poisonous metals in our country and may be hazardous for infants. Absorptions of noxious elements in milk of human were determined by Spectrometry in 16 human milk samples collected from Muridke Pakistan during the 3rd month of lactation. As we know that Muridke is an industrial and over traffic kick city, which has a direct influence of the concentration of lead, Copper and mercury in milk of human. The average concentrations of Cu, Pb and Hg are 0.2208 milli grams per liter (0.1286-0.3856), 0.1897 milli grams per liter (0.1611-0.2356) and 8.2699 micro grams per liter (4.9575-15.5282) respectively. The outcomes of current work shows the Cu, Pb and Hg metals in samples of milk collected from side in Muridke Pakistan are high as compared to suggested values by W.H.O. This is a really threat for the residents of Muridke, which is an industrial and over traffic city Muridke, Pakistanen_US
