Abstract: In order to build method for measuring of elements in propolis, the contents of Zn, Be, V, Fe, Mn, Ni, Se, Ba had been determined by ctively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (MWD) and microwave digestion (ICP-AES) . The results showed that the range of heavy metal elements were 0¹0.0mg/L. There was a good linear relationship, and the related coefficients were more than 0.999 in all, the adding standard recovery was 93.7% ¹13%. The results of determination were promising. By comparison with the result of chemical experiment, the present method was quickly accessible and convenient. It was used in the determination of propolis with the result satisfactory.
