“…The River Chenab (31.570° & 72.534°) receives vast amounts of toxic industrial and domestic wastes through the Chakbandi Main Drain. This waste water holds genotoxic and cytotoxic chemicals (Noor and Zutshi, 2016) from a variety of industries in Faisalabad. Wastes disposed through this drain are sufficient to reduce water productivity by changing the physicochemical parameters of the river upstream Trimu Head.…”

This investigation is aimed to study an impact of habitat degradation on proximate composition and amino acid (AAs) profile of and collected from polluted, non-polluted area (upstream) and a commercial fish farm. The amino acid profile was estimated by the amino acid analyzer. collected from the polluted environment had highest lipid, protein and ash contents (12.04 ± 0.01, 13.45 ± 0.01 and 0.93 ± 0.03%, respectively). The high protein content (14.73 ± 0.01 and 14.12 ± 0. 01%) was recorded in procured from non-polluted (upstream) wild habitat of River Chenab and controlled commercial fish farm. Farmed fish species showed comparatively higher moisture contents followed by upstream and polluted area fishes. showed significant differences in amino acid and proximate composition collected from a polluted site of the river Chenab. collected from non-polluted site of the river showed an excellent nutrient profile, followed by (wild and farmed) and (polluted area), respectively. All fishes from the polluted areas of the River Chenab indicated a significant decrease in the concentration of some AAs when compared to farmed and wild (upstream) major carps. Omitting of some important AAs was also observed in the meat of fish harvested from polluted habitat of this river. and exhibited a significant increase in the concentration of some of non-essential amino acids such as cysteine in their meat. The results indicated that wild fish (upstream) and farmed fish species had highest protein contents and amino acid profile and hence appeared to be the best for human consumption. The proximate composition and AAs profiles of fish harvested from the polluted area of the river clearly indicated that efforts shall be made for the restoration of habitat to continue the requirement of high quality fish meat at a low cost to the human population.

“…Olabanji and Oluyemi (2014) recorded that Cd concentrations were 0.60 to 0.70 μg/g in T. zillii obtained from Opa Reservoir at Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile-Ife, Nigeria. Noor and Zutshi (2016) reported Cd muscle tissue accumulation 0.41 ± 0.50 μg/g of freshwater sh Labeo rohita from Bangalore, Karnataka. Cd at Maryout Lake ranged from 0.7 to 1.90 μg/g which much greater than our results (Abdel-Kader and Mourad 2019a).…”

The Egyptian government seeks to develop the northern lakes, including Edku Lake in the El Beheira governorate, to enhance the physiological functions of fish, and thus, improve their quality and promote their products. Therefore, this study was performed on the two cheapest fish species T. zillii and C. gariepinus in the Egyptian market, by studying proximate body composition, antioxidant enzyme activity, and bioaccumulation of some trace elements. In this study, T. zillii showed the highest mean of carbohydrates (16.11± 0.67 mg/g), fats (24.21 ± 0.93mg/g), ash (7.33 ±1.00 %), and water content (78.33 ± 1.85 %) whereas, the highest mean of protein content was recorded in C. gariepinus (64.33 ±1.01 mg/g). Antioxidant activity GSH (41.66 ± 2.01mg/g), CAT (21.66 ± 2.6 U/g), GPx (36.5 ± 3.01 mU/L), and GR (41.16 ± 1.0 U/L) in the liver of T. zillii demonstrated insignificant decrease, except GSH and CAT was significant at (p < 0.05). SOD activity showed an insignificant decrease in T. zillii (47±3.5 U/g). Concerning trace element concentrations, C. gariepinus demonstrated an increase in five trace elements than T. zillii. The abundance of the elements is in the order as Hg< Al < Cd <Pb < As in T. zillii and C. gariepinus muscles. The highest As was recorded in C. gariepinus (1.54 ± 0.08 μg/g), whereas, the lowest Hg was recorded in T.zillii (0.47 ± 0.08 μg/g). In this research, the concentrations of the trace element in the two studied fish species were above the limits permitted by EOSQC, FAO/WHO, and the EU'. The estimated weekly intake (EWI) of the elements concentrated in the two fish species was unsafe for young people (40 Kg), and children (15 Kg), whereas it was safe for consumption by adults (70 kg) with advice on safe levels of consumption for C. gariepinus for adults. So, this study recommended that the children should consume less than 16.12857 g/day or 112.90 g/week T.zillii muscle and 13.27 g/day or 92.92 g/week C. gariepinus muscle. Moreover, Youth should consume less than 43.01 g/day or 301.7g/ week T.zillii muscle and 35.39714 g/day or 247.78 g/week C. gariepinus muscle. Finally, adult should consume less than 23.1 g/day and 161.7 g/week T.zillii muscle, and 61.94286 g/day or 433.6 g/week C. gariepinus muscle to maintain their safety.

“…Fish serves as standard organism to determine the bioaccumulation and impact of heavy metal pollution. The bioaccumulation of heavy metals in different fish tissues has been estimated by several investigators (Mohamed 2000, Subartha and Karuppasamy 2008, Javed and Usmani 2011, Malik et al 2014, Shaikh 2014, Noor and Zutshi 2016, Jia et al 2017, Mubarakh and Ali 2020. At station II, increased bioaccumulation of heavy metals in edible tissue could be due to higher level of heavy metals in surrounding water as compared to Station I and hence resulted into more absorption/ accumulation in fish body.…”

The present study estimated the concentration (in ppm) of heavy metals of Zn, Fe, Cu and Pb in water samples and edible tissue of Labeo boga; both collected from the non polluted (Station I) and polluted (Station II) locations of river Tawi, Jammu, India. The mean concentration of heavy metals (Zn, Fe, Cu, Pb) at Station I were 0.048±0.008 (ppm); 0.016±0.001 (ppm); 0.157±0.002 (ppm) and 0.0001±0.0001 respectively; while at Station II, these values were 0.133±0.001 (ppm); 0.022±0.002 (ppm); 0.206±0.002 (ppm) and 0.002±0.001 (ppm) respectively; the statistical difference between the stations were significantly higher (p<0.05). The order of heavy metal load obtained in water samples at both the stations was found to be Fe>Zn>Cu>Pb. Also, the mean bioaccumulation of heavy metals viz. Zn, Fe, Cu and Pb in the edible tissue of fish at Station I was found to be 0.374±0.011 (ppm), 0.105±0.02 (ppm); 0.094±0.04 (ppm) and0.001±0.0001 (ppm) respectively; on the other hand, mean bioaccumulation was 0.539±0.013 (ppm); 0.156±0.04 (ppm); 0.121±0.023 (ppm) and 0.0013±0.0001 (ppm) respectively at Station II. Even though bioaccumulation of the heavy metals in the experimental sites did not exceed the acceptable limits recommended by the agencies like FAO and WHO, the present results showed an increasing trend of the accumulation, which definitely poses a serious threat to the survival of aquatic organisms in the study area.
