Metal Concentrations in Chub, Leuciscus Cephalus, from a Submontane River
In many aquatic environments elevated levels of trace elements occur due to anthropogenic activities. Water organisms can be precise indicators in estimating the status of pollution of water environments. Among them several species of fish have been widely used (Håkanson 1984, Chevreuil et al. 1995, Andres et al. 2000, Falandysz et al. 2000, Perkowska and Protasowicki 2000, Řehulka 2001, Wagner...
متن کاملStatistical comparisons of heavy-metal concentrations in river sediments
Statistical t tests were used to determine lead, copper, and chromium enrichment in sediments from the Lower Branch of the Rouge River in southeast Michigan, USA. Both absolute metal concentrations and ratios of trace metal to conservative metal concentrations were used to compare sampled sites along the Lower Branch of the Rouge River to background sites in the headwaters region. Concentration...
متن کاملKaryotype analysis of chub, Squalius cephalus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Teleostei: Cyprinidae) from Karasu River, Erzurum, Turkey
The karyotypic characteristics of chub, Squalius cephalus have been investigated by examining metaphase chromosomes spreads obtained from gill and kidney tissues. The fish used in the study were caught with fishing nets from Dumlu Stream, one of the main tributaries of the Karasu River. The live fish were transported to the laboratory, kept in a well aerated aquarium before analysis and then...
متن کاملConcentration of heavy metals in water and chub, Leuciscus cephalus (Linn.) from the river Yildiz, Turkey.
The concentration of heavy metals (Cu, Fe and Zn) were determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometry in the river water and the edible muscle tissues of chub, Leuciscus cephalus, from river Yildiz, Turkey, and in the waste water The following results were found in the water of the river Yildiz: Cu 0.03-0.53, Fe 0.91-1.96 and Zn, 053-1.49 microgl(-1), in the waste water Cu 0.20-0.52, Fe 1.22...
متن کاملTemporal and Spatial Variations of Trace Metal Concentrations Oysters from the Patuxent River, Maryland
Concentrations of copper (Cu), silver (Ag), and cadmium (Cd) in eastern oysters (Crassostreu tirgkicu) from the upper Patuxent River estuary analyzed since 1986 (Cd since 1991) were high relative to concentrations in other sites in the United States analyzed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration National Status and Trends program. Patuxent River oysters had above average concen...
