Abstract |
: |
Accumulation of some heavy metals in fish to a level that may become toxic to human is a growing threat due to the increase of industrial waste discharge in aquatic system. Fish type differs in their heavy metals accumulation rate and affinity depending on fish habitat and the type of heavy metal itself. Different fish types were collected from different Egyptian localities in the Red sea and the Mediterranean as well as from the freshwater habitat in the Nile to study the effect of fish type on the presence of different heavy metals. The results showed that the highest levels of Lead, Cadmium, Chromium, Zinc, Copper, Magnaese, and Iron were found in Bolty (1.64 mg/kg), Bouri (0.07 mg/kg), Mabrook (0.93 mg/kg), Denis (5.84 mg/kg), Koushar (0.97 mg/kg), Mabrook (0.57 mg/kg), and Maghazel (8.61 mg/kg) fish, respectively. The lowest levels of lead, Cadmium, Chromium, Zinc, Copper were found in Koushar (0.71 mg/kg), Mabrook (0.03 mg/kg), and Maghazel (0.06 mg/kg), Bolty (2.1 mg/kg) and Bolty (0.46 mg/kg) fish, respectively. With regard to Magnaese the lowest levels were observed in Koushar (0.24 mg/kg), Loots (0.25 mg/kg) and Maghazel (0.24 mg/kg). Denis (1.17 mg/kg) and Mohseny (1.17 mg/kg) fish showed lowest level of iron. |
