摘要: Birds are susceptible to environmental changes, which make them particularly important as indicators of contamination, including metal concentrations. In the present study, concentrations arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), iron (Fe), lead (Pb), manganese (Mn), nickel (Ni), and zinc (Zn) in tail flight feathers greylag goose, mallard, pintail, pochard, wigeon were investigated from south Caspian Sea Iran by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ET-AAS) method. The trend both types all examined species was follows: Fe < Zn < Mn < Cd ∼ Cr ∼ Ni ∼ Pb < As. interspecies variation almost studied metals observed, well significant differences between feather types. only exception Ni, medians comparable primaries. Correlations Cd, Mn, Pb, Zn primaries positive statistically significant. Elevated Cr, Pb noted so possibility contamination area is suspected.
