Trace element analysis of algae in the Firat River was performed. To measure elemental concentration, an Am-241 radioisotope source and a Si(Li) solid-state detector were used. The Fe, Ni, Zn, As, Se, Sr, Y, Zr, Mo, Cd, Sn, 1, and Ba elements were found in algae samples by using 59.5 keV gamma photons from Am-241.
