“…Previous studies have been emphasised that reproduction period affects tendency of the metal bioavailability and bioaccumulation related with devoting more energy (Blaise et al 2002; Bodin et al 2004; Guerlet et al 2007; Rouane-Hacene et al 2015). In agreement with previous reports, the reproduction period of V. contectus is spring and summer and the mean amount of As, Cr, Cu, Zn and Hg was lower in freshwater snail in summer than in autumn and winter.The regulation of many biological processes is provided by Zn as an essential element in invertebrates(Danabaş et al 2022). Zn accumulated the large amount in tissues of freshwater snail and reached their highest levels in autumn.…”

For the humankind, water quality of natural resources is the most important and freshwater molluscs are used as bioindicators for the evaluation of water quality in biomonitoring studies. Viviparus contectus (Viviparidae: Gastropoda) is a species freshwater snail and consumed by people. Herein, the concentrations of heavy metals heavy metal (Cd, Cr, Pb, As, Zn and Cu) were measured in water and Viviparus contectus samples. The water quality (temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen) were seasonally determined in water samples. The present study showed that the metal accumulation in the water and soft tissues of freshwater snail were in the order of Pb > Cr = Zn = Cu = Cd = As and Zn > Cu > Pb > Cd > As = Cr, respectively. The elevated levels of heavy metals (As, Cr, Cu, Zn and Hg) were recorded in autumn. Seasonal variations affected significantly Pb concentration in the freshwater snail samples (P < 0.05). EDI (estimated daily intake) values were lower than the recommended tolerable daily intake (TDI) values for adults and the values of HI (hazard index) were lower than 1 for adults. Zn and Pb values in freshwater snail samples were above the limits according to the Turkish Food Codex, FAO/WHO, JECFA and EC limit values. The water analysis indicates mean concentrations of metals below the maximum permissible limits established by the World Health Organization, Turkish Pollution Control Regulation and USEPA, except Pb. Overall, anthropogenic activities adversely affected aquatic ecosystems and this study can be provided a useful data set for metallic contamination in aquatic bodies and biomonitoring studies in freshwater ecosystems.
