The heavy metals concentrations including Zinc, Copper, Lead and Cadmium (Zn, Cu, Pb and Cd) in water and sediments in Gorgan Bay and their accumulation in Rutilus frisii kutum, Acipenser persicus, Rutilus rutilus caspicus and Cyprinus carpio organs (gills, muscle, kidney and liver) were investigated. There was substantial increase in concentration of heavy m...

 Concentration of heavy and toxic metals Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb and Hg were determined in liver and muscles of Rutilus frisii kutum and their relationships with growth parameters (length, age, condition factor) and hepatosomatic index were examined. Thirty-six fish samples were collected from February through March 2009 caught by beach seine in the southwest parts of the Caspian Sea. Atomic absorption ...

Background: Fish have been at high risk of atrazine toxicity. Comparative atrazine toxicity on the tissues of Clarias gariepinus is scanty. Therefore, acute and chronic effects of atrazine on some biochemical parameters in Clarias gariepinus were investigated in this study. Methods: Atrazine toxicity was determined by assessing the responses of glucose, protein, alanine aminotransferase (ALT...

florfenicol is a broad-spectrum antibiotic, widely used in veterinary medicine. the aim of this study was to determine florfenicol residues in the muscle and liver of cultured rainbow trout in iran by elisa. the samples were collected from three areas (kiar, ardal, and koohrang), considered as areas with high production of trout in the western part of iran. sampling was completed during the spr...

the main objective of the present study is investigation of mercury bioaccumulation relation to length, weight, age and sex factors at liver of zander fish. for this purpose, in winter 2005 at western caspian sea shores (from jefroud fishery station to anzali wetland) 21 numbers zander fish were obtained and then after biometry (measuring length, age and weight) and sex determination, the mercu...

OBJECTIVE To study the association of fish and fish-liver oil consumption across the lifespan with CHD later in life among Icelandic women, with special emphasis on the effects of consumption in adolescence. DESIGN Prevalence association study. Logistic regression was used to estimate odds ratios and 95 % confidence intervals of CHD according to fish or fish-liver oil exposure. Models were ad...

the current study is focused on determination of the accumulation rate of cadmium (cd) and lead (pb) in the liver and muscle tissues of the caspian kutum fish. specimens were collected randomly from twelve stations in mazandaran province, the caspian sea basin, between october 2009 and march 2010. fork length, weight and length-weight relationship of samples were measured. one-way analysis of v...
