Constraint on spin-dependent and spin-independent Yukawa potential at atomic scale is developed. That covers constraints on a coupling constant of an additional photon \ensuremathγ* and a pseudovector boson. The mass range considered is from 1 eV/c2 to 1 MeV/c2. The strongest constraint on a coupling constant \ensuremathα^\ensuremath' is at the level of a few parts in 1013 (for \ensuremathγ*) and below one part in 1016 (for a pseudovector) corresponding to mass below 1 keV/c2. The constraints are derived from low-energy tests of quantum electrodynamics and are based on spectroscopic data on light hydrogenlike atoms and experiments with magnetic moments of leptons and light nuclei.
