“…These seasonal variations in heavy metal concentrations in the fish flesh could result from seasonal pollution of farm water and sediments (Kouakou et al, 2016). In addition, the accumulation of metals in fish partly depends on the concentration of the metal in water and sediments (Junejo et al, 2019). The concentrations of cadmium, lead, mercury and arsenic in the muscle were compared with the limit values authorized for consumption.…”

“…Indeed, fish, reared in waters contaminated with heavy metals, most likely contain heavy metals in their flesh (Benzer et al 2013;Junianto et al, 2017) because they can accumulate large quantities of heavy metals (El-Nemaki et al, 2008). Thus, when the fish's living environment is contaminated with heavy met²als, this contamination cannot only pose a threat to the fish, but also serious risks to public health (Vieira et al, 2011;Junejo et al, 2019). This therefore represents a serious threat to humans (Shafei, 2015).…”

“…The presence of heavy metals in the waters and sediments of fish farms comes from many sources including agricultural activities (Garcia et al, 2016) and fish feed (Das et al, 2017). Many studies (Mostafa et al, 2015;Sarker et al, 2016;Adeyemi and Ugah, 2017;Maurya et al, 2018;Junejo et al, 2019) have demonstrated anthropogenic pollution of water and sediments in fish farms by heavy metals. Moreover, the risks of toxicity to fish have been examined (Kalantzi et al, 2013).…”

“…These differences in metals accumulation in the edible organs may be attributed to the function of the studied organ. Furthermore, the increasing level of biosedimentation rate leads to the defect in organs function and could be due to the toxic effects of heavy metals (Abarghoei et al, 2016;Junejo et al, 2019;Kouamenan et al, 2020 andElwasify et al 2021).…”

The present study was aimed to determine the concentrations of some heavy metals in the sediment of different sites in El-Bagouria Canal at El-Menoufia Governorate during the year from autumn, 2019 to summer, 2020. Sediment and fish (Chrysichthys rueppelli) samples were collected seasonally during the study period .The present study exhibited that, all studied metals were showed a higher level in the sediment during the cold weather (autumn and winter) except lead and zinc. Results indicated differences in some heavy metal accumulations in different tissues of studied fish, Chrysichthys rueppelli with an increasing rate in the liver during autumn and winter. Furthermore, gonads showed a higher level of Mn and Zn during autumn and winter. The correlation coefficient of some heavy metals between sediment and target organs indicated this, a strong positive correlation between zinc concentrations in sediment and liver. However, there is a negative correlation between all studied heavy metals concentrations in the sediment and muscles.The data revealed that the highest values of the biosedimentation factor were observed during the winter except for manganese which increased in the spring, with an aspect for all equal to or greater than 1 (BSAF≥1). This means that there is almost predangerous bioaccumulation of these metals in fish. This could be attributed to the content of metals in the substrate .The increasing rates of biosedimentation factors in the target organs indicate the high risk to fish health and human consumption. So, the present study shows that more of precautionary measures must be taken to reduce heavy metal pollution in the future.

“…For this reason, there is a need for efficient fish pond sediment management strategies that include both their removal and recovery [ 4 ]. This is especially important as uncontrolled spreading of sediment on the field, a widespread practice, can lead to soil pollution with nitrates and water eutrophication [ 5 ]. Moreover, leachate can reach groundwater and drinking water sources, threatening human health [ 6 , 7 ].…”

Periodic removal of sediment from aquaculture ponds is practiced to maintain their productivity and animal welfare. The recovery of sediment as a plant fertilizer could alleviate the costs of sediment removal. The objective of this study was to test the effects of a dried sediment, extracted from an aquaculture pond used for common carp cultivation, on the growth and physiology of potted wheat grass and the quality of the juice obtained from wheat grass. The results showed that sediment application did not produce significant morphological changes, although the values for plant height (16.94–19.22 cm), leaf area (19.67–139.21 mm2), and biomass (3.39–4.26 g/plant) were higher in sediment-grown plants. However, at a physiological level, the effect was negative, decreasing photosynthesis (0.82–1.66 μmol CO2 m2s−1), fluorescence ΦPSII (0.737–0.782), and chlorophyll content (1.40–1.83 CCI). The juice yield was reduced in the sediment treatments (46–58 g/100 g), while the quality was improved by increasing the content of phenols (2.55–3.39 µg/mL gallic acid equivalent), flavonoids (1.41–1.85 µg/mL quercetin equivalent), and antioxidant activity (47.99–62.7% inhibition of ;2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl). The positive results obtained in this study can be attributed to the moderate nutrient content of the sediment and a negligible concentration of heavy metals.
