Heavy Metals Residues in Oreochromis niloticus Fish
Ghada Ramadan Mohamed;
Abstract
In the present study, the concentration of heavy metals namely: Al, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn and Ni were determined in tissues of fifty samples of Oreochromis niloticus fish species collected from different locations in Cairo governorate markets.
The fish tissues were carefully dissected for digestion techniques followed by elements analysis performed with Inductively Coupled Plasma – Optic Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES).
There were different levels of heavy metal concentrations in fish tissues.
The concentrations of Al, Fe, Cr, Mn and Ni that were analysed in fish samples revealed to be greater than the permissible limits set by International standards (FAO/WHO).
