“…The level of heavy metals in the lake reached 7.41, 36.14, and 27.12 ppm for Cd, Pb, and Cu, respectively (El-Shehawi et al 2007). As a result, these metals were highly accumulated at significant concentrations in the biota of the lake (Saad et al 1981). A test of samples representing two different basins from the lake showed different effects on the orientation and motility parameters.…”

“…Only half of this volume is subjected to primary treatment before it is discarded into the lake (Halim and Abou Shouk 2010). The untreated industrial and sewage wastes have elevated the concentrations of heavy metals, mainly Zn, Fe, Mn, Cd, Pb, and Cu in the water and sediments of Lake Mariout (Saad et al 1981). Pond Rakta is located in the western part of Alexandria; this pond receives untreated waste effluents from the nearby industries.…”

“…This reflects the discharge of the industrial and sewage wastes into this sector. Saad et al (1982) have claimed that Tilapia spp. fish in the lake have markedly enhanced concentrations of both heavy metals and organochlorine pesticides.…”

“…Some of the marshy areas around the basins have been reclaimed for new building as the cities grow. Generally, all published scientific works and particularly those related to chemical pollutants in water (Saad et al 1981(Saad et al , 1984 and in sediment (Saad et al 1985;Abdel-Moati and ElSammak 1997) are restricted to the main basin or Maryut Lake. This is simply because it collects intensive discharge and waste waters from agriculture, urban, and industrial uses.…”
