TRACE ELEMENTS IN FISH TISSUE WITH COMMERCIAL VALUE OF THE DANUBE DELTA BIOSPHERE RESERVE Autori: Adrian BuradaData aparitiei: Martie / 2017 Revista: Environmental Engineering and Management Journal › Vol. 16 › Nr. 3 ISSN: 1843 - 3707 N.A.
Researches and analysis of heavy metals concentrations in the fish species exploited as a food source are of great interest due to long term toxic effects on human health even at very low concentrations. Therefore, we have conducted this study in an area of great interest in terms of aquatic biodiversity, but also of tourism and trade. Depending on the degree of toxicity in delta aquatic ichtyofauna, five heavy metals (Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb) and a metalloid (As) concentrations were measured in the muscle tissue of fifteen commercial value fish species in order to assess their impact on human health. |
