This study was carried out 18 villages and towns fronting to a cement factory in Mahmudiye village of Çanakkale district. Four poultry houses from each location was selected and 4 chickens, 4 eggs and the samples of seed wheat from each poultry houses were taken in winter, spring, summer and autumn seasons (January, April, July, October) of 2009 and 2010 years. One of the main aims of the study is to determine the level of selected heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Cu, Cr, Co, Mo and Ni) in the liver, legs and chests of the chickens fed near the places of cement factory. In the experimental period, from 2304 chickens, the samples of chicken liver, legs and chests, 2304 eggs and 576 seeds of wheat were collected. Heavy metal levels analyzed in the livers of the samples were found higher than the ones in the legs and chest samples (P?0.01) and the heavy metal levels of the seed wheat collected in the poultry houses were found higher than the egg samples in the same poultry houses (P?0.01). It has found that none of the heavy metals exceeded the limits determined by Turkish Food Codex and European Union.
