“…Egg weight was significantly (p < 0.05) decreased with increasing Cd level during the experimental period ( Table 2). Ascorbic acid or clay supplementation (p < 0.01) increased egg weight comparing to the control during the whole period (8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20) and 20-24 weeks of age. Whilst, egg weight values were insignificantly improved by ascorbic acid or clay addition during the other periods ( Table 2).…”

“…Some reports found that kidney changes occurred independent of bone disease, while others concluded that Cd induced renal dysfunction is the secondary cause of skeletal deterioration [8]. Recently, Saleemi et al [9] concluded that Cd leads to hepatotoxic and gonadotoxic effects in the quails with dose of 150 and 300 mg/kg feed. As well, researchers found that Cd affects the biochemical parameters of birds.…”

A total number of 360 laying Japanese quail (8 weeks of age) were randomly divided into 12 groups. Birds in all groups had nearly the same average initial body weight. A factorial arrangement (4 × 3) was performed including four levels of dietary cadmium (Cd) as cadmium chloride (0, 50, 100, and 150 mg/kg diet) and three levels of feed additives (without, 300 mg/kg ascorbic acid and 1.50% natural clay). Results revealed that Cd contaminated feed caused significant (p < 0.01) retardation in body weight, lower egg number and egg mass and worse feed conversion. On the other hand, the addition of ascorbic acid or natural clay to quail diets caused a significant (p < 0.01) improvement in all studied traits. With respect to the interaction among Cd and the experimental additives, results showed that within each Cd level, ascorbic acid or clay supplementation recorded the highest body weight, egg number, egg weight and mass in addition to improved feed conversion. Cadmium levels decreased (p < 0.05) blood total protein, albumen and A/G ratio. Both 300 mg ascorbic acid and 1.50% clay increased (p < 0.05) blood total protein and albumen compared to non-supplemented groups. It could be concluded that the consumption of polluted diets Cd causes deleterious effects on the productive performance of laying Japanese quail. The addition of ascorbic acid or natural clay to the diets causes beneficial effects on productive performance traits, improves egg quality criteria and diminishes the toxic effects of Cd.

“…In food chain heavy metal load is measured by degree of contamination at speci c area. Toxicity of heavy metals is measured by assessment of biomagni cations in trophic levels from soil-forages-animal continuum and its bioaccumulation beside this by evaluation of contamination in fodder crops and water (Has-Schon et al, 2006;Saleemi et al, 2019). Water life is also good bio-indicator of heavy metal level in water ecosystem, chemical analysis of heavy metal contents in water bodies is useful method for their bio-monitoring (Liu et al, 2007).…”

The aim of study was to access the Mn contamination in soil, forages and animals. Heavy metal pollution is a matter of prime signi cance in natural environment. Through food chain toxicity of heavy metals and their bioaccumulation potential are transferred into humans .Higher concentrations of metallic compounds are toxic to living organisms but these are essential to maintain body metabolism.Intake of food crops polluted with heavy metals is chief food chain channel for human exposure. Animals are exposed to heavy metal stress by the intake of richly contaminated food crops those are chief part of food chain. We collected samples of soil, plant, animal blood, hair and faeces to nd contamination through wet digestion process in lab and metal analysis. Different forages were collected to study Mn calculation was our major concern in this study. Our present ndings also emphasized on the assessment of bio-concentration factor (BCF). We also calculated other signi cant indices i.e. Pollution load index (PLI), daily intake of metal (DIM), Health Risk Index (HRI) and Enrichment factor (EF). While the experimentation result showed different concentrations of metal in different seasons. When the Mn concentration in forages was (20.01-28.29 mg/kg) and in soil (5.27-8.90 mg/kg). Soil samples showed higher level of (PLI) Pollution load index. Bio-concentration of iron was (2.59-4.21 mg/kg). It can be concluded as regular monitoring of the level metal is essential evaluate the contamination status.

“…In an ecosystem, metal residual distribution revealed contaminated area. Toxicity can easily be determine by considering various factors as to measure the level of feed and water pollution, bioaccumulation and toxicity of heavy metals along with bio magnifications in living beings (Has-Schön et al, 2006;Saleemi et al, 2019).…”

Industrial, domestic and other human activities are responsible for heavy metal toxicity of aquatic bodies. Metals are the major stimulators for variety of diseases in aquatic organisms mainly fishes. Chromium (Cr), mercury (Hg), nickel (Ni) and cadmium (Cd) causes histopathological variations and several diseases in various fishes of Pakistan. Extensive histopathological variations in gills, liver, kidney and skin of different fishes were noticed when exposed to heavy metals, thus indicating severity of heavy metal toxicity. The current study was focused on the toxicological effect of Cr, Hg, Ni and Cd in different type of fishes and it would be useful for the scientific community to restore different metals contaminating water.Novelty Statement | Histopathological alterations in target fish organs functioned as fundamental indicator to assess metal toxicity in different fish species as it provides accurate data on effects of different contami-nants on fish. Hence, histopathology must be consider to monitor contaminated aquatic systems.
