Man throughout history has used botany with most diverse purposes. Plants have been used as sources of food for humans and animals; and as a therapeutical remedy to combat various diseases. This thesis aims to raise awareness of the presence and concentrations of heavy metals: Lead (Pb), Cadmium (Cd), Arsenic (As), nickel (Ni), Mercury (Hg) and Manganese (Mn) in filter bags of “tea“ (Camellia sinensis), “chamomile“ (Matricaria chamomilla L.), “anise“ (Pimpinella anisum), “lemongrass“ (Cymbopogon citratus), and “green tea“ (Camellia sinensis) expended in Metropolitan Lima. Taking 36 samples of all brands of filter bags was conducted infusions of “tea“, “chamomile“, “anise“, “lemongrass“ and “green tea“ expended in Metropolitan Lima; analyzes were performed using the method of atomic absorption spectrophotometry by graphite furnace for Lead and Cadmium; with Hydride Generator for Arsenic; with cold steam for Mercury and with flame for Manganese and Nickel. Because in the Peruvian regulations limit or value is not contemplated maximum allowed for heavy metals like Lead, Cadmium, Nickel, Manganese, Mercury and Arsenic in the leaves of “tea“, “chamomile“, “anise“ “Lemongrass“ and “green tea“ values set will be used by International organizations like the World Health Organization (WHO), the Regulation of the European Union and Codex Alimentarius. Of the thirty-six filter bags samples analyzed, the Arsenic value found was up to 0,16 µg/g, while the minimum value is 0,01 µg/ g, the average value of arsenic was 0,06 µg / g. The maximum value of Cadmium found was 0,62 µg/g and the minimum value was 0,11 µg/g; average value Cadmium was 0,28 µg/g. Lead Maximum value found was 22,15 µg/g and at least 1,85 µg/g; Lead average value was 4,21 µg/g. For maximum value Nickel found was 6,99 µg/g and the minimum value of 0,11 µg/g; the average value of Nickel is 0,28 µg /g. The maximum value of Mercury found was 0,016 µg/g and the minimum value 0,003 µg/g; the average value found in the concentration of mercury was 0,01 µg/g. For Manganese, It found a maximum value that was 785,45 µg/g and a minimum value of 210,57 µg/g; Manganese average value was 472,16 µg/g. Keywords: Heavy metals, Lead, Cadmium, Arsenic, Nickel, Mercury, Manganese, filter bags.
