AB  - Moss transplants of Hypnum cupressiforme and Sphagnum girgensohnii were tested for efciency in detection of airborne
element pollution at a suburban background site during short time exposure of 15 days (twelve consecutive periods) and
during prolonged exposure from one to six months. Concomitantly, particulate matter (PM10, PM2.5) was sampled during
three identifed Saharan dust episodes, while MERRA-2 data were used for estimation of dust concentration at ground level to
which the moss bags were exposed during 15-day periods. The concentrations of 22 potentially toxic elements were measured
in the moss and PM10 samples. The results showed that 15-day bag exposure at the background location could not provide
a measurable and reliable signature of the elements in the moss transplants, except for Al, V, As, Ga, Y, and Tb, unlike the
extended moss bag exposure of a couple of months. These were also the only elements whose concentrations were increased
multifold in PM10 samples during the most intense dust episode, which was also recorded by S. girgensohnii bags exposed
in the corresponding 15-day period. The ratio of crustal elements (Ca/Al, Mg/Al) in PM10 and moss samples (3-month
exposed) was in line of those reported for dust transported from western Africa. The V/Al, Ga/Al, and Tb/Al concentration
ratio values in PM10 and S. girgensohnii samples were higher for dust days contrary to the As/Al ratio, which could be used
to distinguish between dust and fossil fuel combustion pollution sources. The moss bag technique could be used as a simple
tool for tracking long-range transported elements, but after prolonged moss bag exposure (3 months).

AB  - Conventionally used spectrometric techniques of inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-MS) usually involve time-consuming sample preparation procedure of a sample dissolution which requires the usage of aggressive and toxic chemicals. The need for suitable and sustainable analytical methods for direct multi-elemental analysis of plant samples has been increased in recent years. Spectrometric techniques for direct sample analysis, instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) and X-ray fluorescence (XRF) have been applied in environmental studies and various fields of screening tests. Nevertheless, these techniques are not commonly used for plant sample analysis and their performances need to be evaluated. This research aimed to assess how reliable non-destructive techniques are in the determination of elements in plants compared to conventionally used spectrometric techniques. A total of 49 plant samples of four conifer species (Pinus nigra, Abies alba, Taxus baccata and Larix decidua) were measured using two conventionally applied (ICP-MS, ICP-OES) and two non-destructive techniques (wavelength dispersive XRF (WD-XRF), INAA). The comparison was performed by investigation of relative ratios of concentrations and by correlation analysis. Moreover, precision of the techniques was examined and compared. The quality control included analysis of NIST pine needles certified reference material (1575a) using all examined techniques. Our results suggest that additional analytical and quality control steps are necessary for reaching the highest accuracy of multi-elemental analysis.

AB  - This study was performed in organic vineyard to assess integrated pollution in soil–plant–air system by potentially toxic elements (PTE). Concentrations of 26 PTE were determined in soil, grapevine, and air biomonitors (moss bags) using ICP-OES and ICP-MS. Environmental implication assessment of soil did not show pollution by PTE, except for B in samples collected in the middle of grapevine season (July). Despite low total Cd concentrations in soil, it has the highest influence on increase of environmental risk. Based on biological accumulation concentration (BAC), grapevine is not hyperaccumulator of PTE from soil. Advanced classification algorithm, Kohonen self-organizing map (SOM), was applied to compare environmental implications in organic with conventional vineyards. PTE concentrations were significantly lower in organic than conventional grapevine. PTE concentrations were higher in the outer (leaf and petiole) than in the inner grapevine parts (skin, pulp, and seed). Some airborne elements have an influence on outer grapevine parts, especially on leaves (ratio factor—RF > 1). Moss bag technique testified about lower enrichment of airborne elements compared with the conventional vineyard and urban microenvironments. Environmental and health risk assessments confirmed that organic production is harmless for field workers and grape consumers.

AB  - Air traffic represents an important way of social mobility in the world, and many ongoing discussions are related to the impacts that air transportation has on local air quality. In this study, moss Sphagnum girgensohnii was used for the first time in the assessment of trace element content at the international airport. The moss bags were exposed during the summer of 2013 at four sampling sites at the airport 'Nikola Tesla' (Belgrade, Serbia): runway (two), auxiliary runway and parking lot. According to the relative accumulation factor (RAF) and the limit of quantification of the moss bag technique (LOQ(T)), the most abundant elements in the samples were Zn, Na, Cr, V, Cu and Fe. A comparison between the element concentrations at the airport and the corresponding values in different land use classes (urban central, suburban, industrial and green zones) across the city of Belgrade did not point out that the air traffic and associated activities significantly contribute to the trace element air pollution. This study emphasised an easy operational and robust (bio) monitoring, using moss bags as a suitable method for assessment of air quality within various micro-environments with restriction in positioning referent instrumental devices.
