“…Hence, there is no such potential non-carcinogenic effect for the consumers due to intake of the fish species. Studies carried out by several authors in similar condition were in line with our results [43, 78, 107–109]. In general, the assessment of THQ for human health risk evaluation has no dose-response relation of the examined elements [110].…”

“…Hazard index (HI) was calculated for the multiple elements (Hg, As, Mn, and Cr) found in the fish samples and the equation is as follows [3, 16, 75, 76]: where, THQs is the estimated risk value for individual metal [77]. When HI value is higher than 10, the non-carcinogenic risk effect is considered high for exposed consumers [78–80].…”

The Karnaphuli, a major river of Bangladesh, located off the coast of Chittagong in the Bay of Bengal is largely exposed to the heavy metal pollutants, which may be toxic to humans and aquatic fauna. The estuary is a striking example of a site where human pressure and ecological values collide with each other. In spite of being a major supplier of fish food for local community, there has been no study carried out to date to assess the potential human health risk due to heavy metal contamination in the fish species from this estuary. Therefore, the aim of present study was to assess bioaccumulation status and the potential human health risk evaluation for local consumers. Six commercially important fish species, Apocryptes bato, Pampus chinensis, Hyporhamphus limbatus, Liza parsia, Mugil cephalus, and Tenualosa toil from the Karnaphuli River estuary were collected to analyze heavy metals concentration level. Heavy metals As, Pb, Cd, Cr and Cu were detected from the samples using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (Model: ELAN9000, Perkin-Elmer, Germany). The hierarchy of the measured concentration level of the metals was as follows: Pb (mean: 13.88, range: 3.19 - 6.19) > Cu (mean: 12.10, range: 10.27 - 16.41) > As (mean: 4.89, range: 3.19 – 6.19) > Cr (mean: 3.36, range: 2.46 – 4.17) > Cd (mean: 0.39, range: 0.21 - 0.74). The Fulton’s condition factor denoted that organisms were particularly in better ‘condition’ and most of the species were in positive allometric growth. The Bioaccumulation factors (BAFs) observed in the species of the contaminants were organized in the following ranks: Cu (1971.42) > As (1042.93) > Pb (913.66) > Cr (864.99) > Cd (252.03), and among all the specimens, demersal fish, A. bato corresponded to the maximum bio-accumulative organism. Estimated daily intake (EDI), target hazard quotient (THQ) and carcinogenic risk (CR) assessed for human health risk implications suggest that the values are within the acceptable threshold for all sorts of consumers. Hence none of them would experience non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic health effect for the ingestion of the fishes. However, children are shown to be largely susceptible than adults to non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic health effect due to the consumption of fish. Therefore, an appropriate guidlines and robust management measures needed to be taken to restore the estuarine health condition for greater benefit of the quality of fish products for local consumption.Graphical abstract

“…In the past, a study revealed that prenatal exposure to Hg at 16‐18 weeks of gestation might cause accumulation of the Hg in the amniotic fluid and adversely affect the health status and children’s cognitive skills since the children were approximately 3 years of age . As already reported above, the main source of maternal Hg vapour exposure is amalgam fillings and fish . These two mercurials are known to penetrate the placenta rapidly and then pass into the foetus.…”

Mercury (Hg), a highly toxic environmental pollutant, shows harmfulness which still represents a big concern for human health, including hazards to fertility and pregnancy outcome. Research has shown that Hg could induce impairments in the reproductive function, cellular deformation of the Leydig cells and the seminiferous tubules, and testicular degeneration as well as abnormal menstrual cycles. Some studies investigated spontaneous abortion and complicated fertility outcome due to occupational Hg exposure. Moreover, there is a relation between inhaled Hg vapour and reproductive outcome. This MiniReview evaluates the hypothesis that exposure to Hg may increase the risk of reduced fertility, spontaneous abortion and congenital deficits or abnormalities.

e objective of the study was to determine the content of cobalt, silver, tin, antimony, lead, mercury, cadmium, arsenic, vanadium, chromium, manganese, nickel, and uranium in canned meat and canned fish by means of ICP-MS apparatus and mercury analyzer. Also, probabilistic risk assessment (non carcinogenic) was estimated by models including target hazard quotient (THQ). It was found that Mn was the element with the highest concentration in the analyzed products, with average concentration of 0.216 mg·kg −1 in canned meat and 1.196 mg·kg −1 in canned fish. e average contents of other elements were as follows (respectively, for canned meat and fish): Co 0.018 and 0.028 mg·kg −1 , Ag 0.0386 and 0.0053 mg·kg −1 , Sn 0.059 and 0.200 mg·kg −1 , Sb 0.0268 and 0.0377 mg·kg −1 , Pb 0.202 and 0.068 mg·kg −1 , Hg 0.00003 and 0.02676 mg·kg −1 , Cd 0.00496 and 0.0202 mg·kg −1 , As 0.002 and 0.857 mg·kg −1 , V 0.0003 and 0.095 mg·kg −1 , Cr 0.244 and 0.590 mg·kg −1 , Mn 0.216 and 1.196 mg·kg −1 , Ni 0.004 and 0.088 mg·kg −1 , and U < LOQ and 0.047 mg·kg −1 . e concentration of As was the highest among other toxic elements in canned fish; therefore, the THQ value of this element revealed the highest level amounting up to 0.77576 (THQ max ).
