Cadmium accumulation in coastal demersal fish

Abstract: The hepatic Cd burden, measured on 291 individuals of 4 species of demersal fish (Gadus morhua, Reinhardtius hippoglossoides, Hippoglossoides platessoides, and Raja radiata), is 2 to 5 times higher in fish from the open Gulf of St. Lawrence than in fish from the St. Lawrence Estuary, 600 km landward. The higher Cd burden in the open Gulf is not related to the input of anthropogenic Cd, nor can it be attributed to differences in size, sex, sampling season, or state of health. Rather, the Cd burden in demersal f… Show more

“…Furthermore, in polluted soils and soil solutions, high cadmium concentrations were measured, for example, 5.4-45.5 μM Cd in soil solutions of soils close to a chemical engineering plant in Northern Taiwan (Lee, Lai, & Chen, 2004) and 284 mg Cd kg −1 in paddy soils from Thailand (Simmons, Pongsakul, Saiyasitpanich, & Klinphoklap, 2005). Moreover, Cd has been shown to be biomagnified in some aquatic food webs (Croteau, Luoma, & Stewart, 2005;Ikemoto et al, 2008;Rouleau, Gobeil, & Tjlve, 2006;Signa, Mazzola, Tramati, & Vizzini, 2017). At the microbial level, this accumulation occurs in communities between bacteria and eukaryote organisms (Worden et al, 2015).…”
