Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This article presents studies of the presence of heavy metals in waste carbon dioxide extraction (CO2-meal). Alcohol and aqueous extracts from CO2-meal of herb Scabiosa ochroleuca L. (scabiosa pale yellow) were studied via inversion voltammetry for the presence of the following heavy metals: zinc (Zn), cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), and copper (Cu). Research has been conducted to determine the dynamics of the migration of heavy metals from raw materials to CO2 meals. According to the results of the present study, the contents of heavy metals in the alcohol extract from the CO2 meal of the herb Scabiosa ochroleuca L. were as follows: Zn = 0.6136 mg/ml; Cd = 0.001999 mg/ml; Pb = 0.002992 mg/ml; and Cu = 1.868 mg/ml. For an aqueous extract from the CO2 meal of the herb Scabiosa ochroleuca L., Zn = 0.2471 mg/ml; Cd = 0.01919 mg/ml; Pb = 0.02321 mg/ml; and Cu = 0.3304 mg/ml. The percentage of transition of heavy metals from vegetable raw materials to CO2-meal for alcohol extraction was as follows: Zn =1.87%; Cd = 12.44%; Pb = 0.28%; and Cu = 10%. The percentage of transition of heavy metals from vegetable raw materials to CO2-meal for the aqueous extract was as follows: Zn = 0.8%; Cd = 85%; Pb = 2.2%; and Cu = 1.7%.
