“…The contents of Pb, Cd, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, and Co in the ENEA drupes are in good agreement with those reported in the literature for plants grown on uncontaminated soils, while the ones from Allumiere are lower [40]. The concentrations of major and trace elements in olives can be used both to establish the geographical origin of olives and, like other authors reported [19,41], as an indicator of soil pollution.…”

Olives and olive products are particularly important for the national agroindustrial sector, for the aspects related to the production territory (authenticity), and for the link with the Mediterranean Diet. Several studies indicate that the elemental profile of olive and olive products depends on the production area in which the olive trees were grown, and the elemental content of the olives can be used as a marker of the production area. In order to confirm this hypothesis, the multi-elemental profile of olive drupes and olive leaves of eleven cultivars arising from two different production areas was evaluated through ICP-MS and ICP-AES techniques. In addition, some leaf samples were analysed by LPAS in order to evaluate the applicability of this new analytical technique for determining the geographic origin. The obtained results, combined with chemometric tools, showed the possibility of discriminating samples according to the production area on the basis of the elemental content, as well as by LPAS.

Atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) is a well‐established technique for the quantitative determination of elements in environmental materials at trace and ultratrace levels. AAS is an optical atomic spectrometric technique based on the measurement of the specific absorption originated from the free, unionized atoms in the gas phase. For transferring the analyte to free atoms, different types of atomizers are in use, out of which the flame and the graphite furnace are the most often used atomizers. Typical detection limits of flame AAS (FAAS) are of the order of 1–100 μg L −1 , making it a perfect tool for the determination of minor and trace elements, at least for contaminated samples. Graphite furnace AAS (GFAAS), offering detection limits which are about a factor of 20–200 lower than for FAAS, is the standard method for many trace elements especially for background values, and for unpolluted samples, such as freshwater and biological materials. AAS in its conventional configuration is a single element technique, which has to be used in a sequential mode when more than one element has to be determined. However, there are commercial instruments available, that can be used for the determination of six to eight elements simultaneously. While most manufacturers provide instruments working with line sources, one manufacturer has commercialized high‐resolution instruments working with continuum sources (HRCS‐AAS).
