Evaluating Total Mercury and Methyl Mercury Contents in Canned Tuna Fish of the Persian Gulf
Due to hygienic risks of mercury residues in food and marine originated supplements, measuring total mercury and methyl mercury contents of canned tuna as a highly consumable marine food product is essential. In this study, 40 canned Tuna fish (from Persian Gulf) were collected in 2015 and then flame atomic absorption spectrometer (FAAS) and thermo gas chromatography mass spectrophotometry were...

متن کاملThe Determination of Total Mercury and Methyl Mercury Contents of Oily White and Light Style of Persian Gulf Tuna Cans
The levels of total mercury and methyl mercury were measured in 40 tuna cans prepared from Persian Gulf tuna, in Tehran, Iran during 2010. The total mercury and methyl mercury concentrations were determined with a GBC 906 AA flame atomic absorption spectrometer (FAAS) and a Thermo gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer (GC-MS), respectively. The results showed that the means of total mercury and m...
متن کاملTotal mercury in canned tuna sold in Canada in 2006.
Total mercury was measured in 156 composites prepared from 936 samples of canned tuna sold in Canada in 2006. Each composite comprised a single brand. Yellowfin tuna contained the lowest concentrations, averaging 0.066 mg/kg. Skipjack tuna contained slightly higher concentrations, averaging 0.132 mg/kg. The highest average concentration was found in the Albacore tuna: mean 0.325 mg/kg, range 0....
متن کاملSources and variations of mercury in tuna.
While the bulk of human exposure to mercury is through the consumption of marine fish, most of what we know about mercury methylation and bioaccumulation is from studies of freshwaters. We know little of where and how mercury is methylated in the open oceans, and there is currently a debate whether methylmercury concentrations in marine fish have increased along with global anthropogenic mercur...
