Six different species were collected, due to their high consumption Asian region—especially Malaysia, assess levels EDCs. highest concentration EDCs detected muscle was dexamethasone (2.37–15.84 ng/g) (0.77–13.41 ng/g), liver (<2.54–43.56 progesterone (2.23–9.78 reproductive organ are (<2.54–37.23 caffeine (0.21–18.92 ng/g). health risk assessment current study suggested that there is no potential consumer because hazard index below 1 (HI < 1). present provides information pollution profile associated fish.
