The analysis of correlations between the age and the level of bioaccumulation of heavy metals in tissues and the chemical composition of sheep meat from the region in SE Poland

Assessment of trace elements in animal tissues from Turkey

“…4 and 6). These lead values are in agreement with reported data from literature (Uluozlu et al 2009;Rudy 2009). In the literature, high lead concentration has been reported in samples; it was reported to be 2.11-1.5 μg/g and 84.24-0.85 ppm in animal tissues (Caggiano et al 2005;Haneef et al 1998).…”

“…They are stored in the liver, kidney, and bone sites, and eliminated by renal clearance (Haneef et al 1998). The effect of lead is actually similar to cadmium (Rudy 2009). …”

A study of toxic elements and radionuclides in semi-smoked sausages made with lentils, thyme, and juniper

“…According to the results of the study of the longest muscle in back and liver samples, it has been established that the age of sheep decreases the content of water in meat, but the contents of protein, fat and ash increase; the accumulation of Cd and Pb depends on the age of animals [11].…”

Determining the effect of lupin flour and inula on the flow of metabolic processes in the organism

“…Concentrations of elements of aluminum, arsenic, cadmium, chromium, cobalt, copper, lead, mercury, nickel, selenium and zinc get into meat during air and vegetation contamination [12]. In particular, according to results of examination of meat of wild and domestic animals [13], it was found that the existence of these elements does not pose any danger to the health of consumers, their amount does not exceed maximum permissible concentrations [14]. The level of accumulation of particular heavy metals was determined in meat and liver of sheep.…”
