“…The levels detected in different fishes in the present study are parallel with the levels in the study by Uluturhan and Kucuksezgin [26] . In the studies by Dalman et al [25] and Tepe et al [27] (mg kg -1 ) the Zn (0.5-7.2), Mn (0.37), Cr (0.13) levels were close to, and the Cd (0.03), Fe (46.9), Ni (0.31), Pb (0.39), Co (0.03) and Cu (1.56) levels were higher than the levels in the present study.…”

“…Dalman et al [25] have found Pb: <0.02-0.4, Cd: <0.01-0.04, Cu: <0.1, Zn: <0.5-7.2 mg kg -1 in their study for the fish (Dicentrarchus labrax) obtained from fish farms in the Güllük Bay. Heavy Metal Levels in ... [26] have determined the levels of Cd: 2.0±0.91, Pb: 59.3±34.7, Zn: 2810±142, Cu: 164±24.1 µg kg -1 in their study conducted in 2007 on fish from Didim. Tepe et al [27] have determined heavy metal levels of Cd: 0.03±0.01, Co: 0.03±0.00, Cr:0.13±0.05, Cu: 1.56±0.43, Fe: 46.9±12.1, Mn: 0.37±0.07, Ni: 0.31±0.16, Pb: 0.39±0.18, Zn: 5.20±0.81 µg g -1 for the fish they studied in Izmir.…”

The aim of this study was to determine the levels of Ag, Al, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn in wild seabream (Sparus aurata), blotched picarel (Spicara maena), pandora (Pagellus erythrinus) fished from the Aegean Sea and the farmed seabream (Sparus aurata), and to assess the risks depending on their consumption by humans. A total of 40 fishes were collected and the metal levels were determined using ICP-OES. The metal levels were determined to be Ag (Nd),

“…This observation was in agreement with Omar et al (2014) who reported that the metabolically active tissues as liver and kidneys had high affinity to concentrate the greatest amount of most metals in their tissues. In contrast, the lowest metals bioaccumulation were observed in muscles (lowest MPI) and this may be related to the high fat-content in muscle tissues with low affinity to combine with metals in addition to the low metabolic activity of muscle (Uluturhan and Kucuksezgin, 2007).…”

This work aimed to assess the impact of Sabal drains (northern part of El-Minufiyah governorate, Egypt) on the metals load of river Nile. Four sites were selected to monitor the partitioning of metals in the aquatic components: reference site (site1); 20Km before Sabal drainage (site2); Sabal site (site3) and 20Km after Sabal drainage (site4). The maximum means of aqueous metals were observed at site3 in the following order (mg/l): Fe (0.76) >Mn (0.325) >Zn(0.07) >Pb (0.064) >Cu (0.041) >Cd (0.0035), while the trend is slightly different in sediments (mg/kg): Fe (527.9) >Mn (102.7) >Zn (17.65) >Cu (11.4) >Pb (1.26)>Cd (0.07). Tissue-specific patterns of metal accumulation in Oreochromis niloticus were observed. As indicated by the calculated metal pollution index and bioaccumulation factor, the tissues of liver, kidneys and gills were observed to be strong bioaccumulators compared to muscular tissues. Regarding the correlation study in site3, the bioaccumulated metals in most tissues showed homogenous-correlation with aqueous metals (r>0.5) and diverse-correlations with respect to sedimentary metals. The calculated hazard index (HI) indicated that each metal had low HI but, the cumulative impacts of all metals represented a real threat to fish consumers especially at site3. Metals elevation was highly correlated with Sabal discharges and regulations for water and fish consumption have to be applied.

This investigation was aimed to evaluate water pollution with heavy metals using three biomarkers, as well as the study of the aquatic insects-seasons interaction. Three species of aquatic insects collected from El-Mansouriya stream (Dakahlia, Egypt), during the different seasons from spring 2014 to winter 2015. Water samples, sediments and whole body of the three aquatic insects were analyzed for heavy metal contents. As well as, two enzyme biomarkers, Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and glutathione-S-transferase (GST) were used to monitor aquatic insects' response to water pollutants. Results showed various activities of the three biomarkers at the different studied seasons. Where, the concentration of selected heavy metals, in the whole body of the three insects, showed a relatively wide range for each metal analyzed. Also, higher values of metal pollution index (MPI) were attained in hotter seasons (spring and summer) and its decrements were observable during cooler seasons (autumn, winter), that provides a representative picture to the environmental state of environmental impacts on the aquatic ecosystem. While the heavy metals were found to be highly accumulated in selected aquatic insects body, as well as the variation of enzymes activity, thus both enzymes could be used as biomarker of water and sediment contamination.
