Özet
Kinetic (magic) sand is widely used in preschool activities in order toimprove the children’s creative abilities. Despite its popularity, thisstudy will be the first in literature to assess the heavy metal contentof kinetic sand samples. Focusing on the determination of metalcontent (Hg, Cd, Sb, Sn, Al, Ni, Co, Cu, Pb) of 10 different brands ofkinetic sand samples sold in Turkish markets, the significance ofsample preparation step was further discussed with the applicationof wet digestion and microwave digestion methods, prior to analy-sis by ICP-MS. Based on the acute toxicity classes defined byEuropean Union (EU) As, Cd, Hg belongs to Class 1; Ni, CrVI, Pbbelongs to Class 2, whereas Zn and Cu belongs to Class 3. Amongthe potential toxic elements studied, the Al content of samplesattracts attention with its high level exceeding the limits ofdirectives.
