Trace minerals have long been identified as essential components in the diets of domestic livestock species. Chromium, cobalt, copper, iodine, iron, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, selenium, and zinc are included in the category of essential trace minerals (or microminerals). Trace minerals exist in cells and tissues of the animal body in a variety of chemical combinations, and in characteristic...

Assessment of the essential elements and heavy metals content of the muscle of Kutum (Rutilus frisii kutum) from the south Caspian Sea and potential risk assessment

Concentrations of heavy metals were determined in muscles of Kutum (Rutilus frisii kutum) collected from the central part of the southern end of the Caspian Sea during February 2011. Except for silver (Ag) and nickel (Ni) which were below the limits of detection, the average levels of arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), copper (Co), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), lead (Pb), sele...
