Bioaccumulation of Heavy Metals by the Brown Alga Cystoseira Sp. along the Turkish Coast of the Aegean Sea
Brown algae Cystoseira sp. and to gain additional information on the environmental conditions of the area seawater samples were collected from six sampling stations along the Turkish coast of the Aegean Sea. Concentrations of Cd, Pb, Cu, Zn, Mn and Fe were measured for both algae and seawater samples. The heavy metal concentrations detected in algae showed significant differences among all stat...
متن کاملDiversity and Temporal Dynamics of the Epiphytic Bacterial Communities Associated with the Canopy-Forming Seaweed Cystoseira compressa (Esper) Gerloff and Nizamuddin
Canopy-forming seaweed species of the genus Cystoseira form diverse and productive habitats along temperate rocky coasts of the Mediterranean Sea. Despite numerous studies on the rich macrofauna and flora associated with Cystoseira spp., there is little knowledge about the epiphytic bacteria. We analyzed bacterial populations associated with canopies of Cystoseira compressa, over an annual vege...
متن کاملHeavy metal bioaccumulation in commercial Lethrinidae fish species in Mauritius
Concentrations of heavy metals arsenic, cadmium, lead and mercury and trace elements chromium, copper, nickel and zinc were tested in the muscle tissue of four commercial edible lethrinids fish species from different region of Mauritius. Sky emperor (Lethrinus mahsena) was collected from coastal regions as well as offshore regions (banks) for this study. Blackspot emperor (Lethrinus harak) and ...
متن کاملTrace metal pollution in the Mediterranean Sea
In the Mediterranean Sea, the distribution of dissolved zinc, copper, lead and cadmium is primarily controlled by marine circulation, surface source dynamics and biological new production. We show that the present relatively high content of these metals in the surface layer is due to non-steady-state cycles as a result of source increases probably following increases in industrial, agricultural...
متن کاملRadionuclides and trace metals in eastern Mediterranean Sea algae.
Three types of sea alga distributed along the Syrian coast have been collected and analyzed for radioactivity and trace elements. Results have shown that (137)Cs concentrations in all the analyzed sample were relatively low (less than 1.2 Bq kg(-1) dry weight) while the levels of naturally occurring radionuclides, such as (210)Po and (210)Pb, were found to be high in most samples; the highest o...
