Abstract :The form and distribution of trace elements in tissues and fluids of the body have become key details in life sciences and medicine, and they may be used to discover disease biomarkers. In the current study, concentrations of twelve elements in Rumex nepalensis, Inula Discoidea, Tripleurospermum callosum, and Thymus migricus plants samples were detected by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). All elements the range of correlation coefficient (R) obtained from 0.993 to 1. For R. nepalensis plant extract Zn (45.457 µg ml-1), Mn (41.357 µg ml-1), and Cu (13.628 µg ml-1); for I. Discoidea plant extract Zn (62.175 µg ml-1), Mn (53.288 µg ml-1), and Cr (16.904 µg ml-1); for T. callosum plant extract Mn (50. 594 µg ml-1), Cu (12.712 µg ml-1), and Cr (2.662 µg ml-1); for T. migricus plant extract Mn (53.893 µg ml-1), Zn (23.768 µg ml-1), and Cu (9.568 µg ml-1) were identified as the most intensive elements. These plants extracts could be a novel source of mineral constituents in various industries and pharmaceutical industries.
