Bioaccumulation of Heavy Metals in Two Marine Fishes (Pristis microdon and Scomberomorus guttatus)

摘要: The present study was carried out to evaluate the concentrations of heavy metals from two marine fishes a) Pristis microdon and b) Scomberomorus guttatus collected Tuticorin, Tamilanadu, India. selected (Cu , Zn Pb ) were determined in liver, muscles gills said fishes. All three 2+ detected using Atomic Absorption Spectrometry compared with standard metals. Statistical mean values calculated then principal component analysis used detect Pearson correlations. Results exhibited that recorded metal generally found within range or below levels similar species global studies. fish organs accepted by international legislation limits are safe for human consumption.
