The aim of this research was to determine the concentration of cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) in the muscle and liver tissues of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in Hamedan Province (west of Iran) cold water fish farms, and compare the results with the FAO/WHO guidelines. Heavy metal concentrations were determined from the three randomly selected fish farms by Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical ...

this paper presents  the  levels  of total  mercury  (t-hg)  in  dorsal  muscle,  liver  and  spleen of pike  (esox lucius) from  anzali  lagoon  in iran.  sampling were  carried  out from  july  2004 to july 2005. in addition 78 samples were collected. t-hg concentration  were  calculated  in relation to biometric factors. t-hg was measured by the leco ama 254 advanced mercury analyzer (usa) a...

effect of zinc cyanide on protein and certain metabolites content and some enzymes activitieswas evaluated in liver, muscle and gill tissues of the freshwater fish, cirrhinus mrigala, during exposure andfollowing cessation of exposure. fish exhibited significant alterations in the biochemical parameters in alltissues studied. levels of total protein decreased in all tissues, where as free amino...

background: lead is the oldest known toxic metal, physiologically and biologically harmful to living creatures. this study aimed to evaluate the lead accumulation in the liver and breast muscles of japanese quail (coturnix japonica) and to compare concentrations in both sexes and its effect on blood biochemical factors. methods: twenty-four young farm japanese quails (25 day old) prepared from ...

This study was conducted to determine the concentration of five heavy metals, including lead, cadmium, mercury, arsenic, and chromium in muscle, liver and gills of the gray mullet, Liza aurata in southern part of the Caspian Sea.
