“…Essential elements (Cu and Zn) are accumulated higher in the tissue organs compared to the non-essential elements (Cd, Pb, Hg, and As). Many researchers have observed a similar accumulation pattern of higher concentration of essential elements in the tissue organs compared to the non-essential elements (Zubcov et al 2012;Wang, Chu, et al 2015;Varol et al 2017;Anandkumar et al 2018). Among the analyzed metals in the fish species, Cu, Zn, and Cd show higher concentration in the viscera tissue; Cr, Pb, Hg and As shows higher accumulation in muscle tissue and Mn accumulated higher in the gill tissue, whereas in bivalve species accumulation of Cu, Zn, Mn, Pb, Hg and As was higher in gill tissues; Cr and Cd show higher accumulation in gonad tissue.…”

“…Muscle tissue is commonly considered as the organ with the low accumulation ability for toxic metals. However, this is not always the case, previous studies by Liu et al (2015) and Jia et al (2017) have reported the higher concentration of non-essential elements (Cr, As and Cd) in the muscle tissue of S. fuscescens, P. fulvidraco and C. carassius compared to gill and liver tissues. This can be due to the distinct circulation pattern of heavy metals between various fish species (Liu et al 2015).…”

Increasing toxic metal content in aquatic products has become a universal burden due to the risk to aquatic organisms and human health risks associated with consumption of these products. In this study, toxic metal distribution and accumulation in the organs of fish and bivalve species of economic and culinary importance from the lower reaches of the Yangtze River are examined, and the corresponding health risks are also investigated. In general, the viscera and gill show higher concentration of metals than other tissues. The order of the accumulation sequence of metals in muscle tissue of fish and bivalve is: Zn > Cu > Mn > Cr > As > Hg > Pb > Cd and Mn > Zn > Cu > As > Cr > Pb > Cd > Hg respectively. Maximum accumulation of Mn (507.50 µg g -1 ) and Pb (0.51 µg g -1 ) in the gill tissues indicates the major uptake of these metals from the water column. According to the Hazard Index (HI) calculations (based on USEPA), the analyzed metals will not cause any harmful health effects to individuals for both normal and habitual fish consumers, except for Hg and As in habitual consumers, if these species are consumed at a larger amount. Compared to the Chinese Food Health Criterion and other international standards (WHO/FAO), metal concentrations in the edible muscle tissues of the studied species are lesser than the acceptable levels and found to be fit for human consumption.

“…The content of manganese in the muscles of fish from Lake Kenon is lower than that presented in the work (Rahman et al 2012), which might be due to the tendency of various species of fish to concentrate certain elements in their tissue more than the surrounding. In the food components of the fish stomach in Lake Kenon, the high concentration of Zn, Mn and Hg shows that chemical contaminants enter organisms not only through the environment but also with food, which is supported by research (Wang et al 2015). For example, it was detected that approximately 70% of methylated Hg is consumed with food, while only 10% is accumulated through gills (Heath 2002).…”

In this study, contamination of potentially toxic elements (Cr, Mn, Cu, Zn, Hg and Pb) and species dominant in the fish community of Lake Kenon – Carassius auratus gibelio (Bloch 1782) and Perca fluviatilis (Linnaeus 1758) – were investigated. Chemical elements in samples were determined by atomic emission spectrometry (iCAP-6500, Thermo Scientific, USA) and mass spectrometry (X-7, Thermo Elemental, USA). It was reported that water in Lake Kenon contained low concentrations of the studied metals. The bottom sediments are enriched with Mn, Zn, Hg and Pb. Bioaccumulation factors of chemical elements accumulated from the surrounding water for P. fluviatus and C. auratus gibelio in descending order are as follows: Zn > Pb > Hg > Cu. P. fluviatus accumulates Hg in equal measure from both water and bottom sediments. Manganese and mercury are accumulated in the muscles of C. auratus gibelio from bottom sediments. The high accumulation ratio of Zn and Hg in C. auratus gibelio was obtained from Chara sp. (24 times) and Chironomus spp. (38 times), respectively. High accumulation ratio of Zn (26 times) and Hg (29 times) in P. fluviatus was obtained from amphipods. At the same time, Hg in P. fluviatus muscles was accumulated at high level from Chironomus spp. (67 times). In this way, management decisions for mitigation practices in Lake Kenon should be focussed on for the disposal of wastewater from the ash dump contaminated with chemical elements.

“…Mn was related with Zn in the subsidence pond with a pillaring photovoltaic cover (p ≤ 0.05). Usually, the positive correlations between the heavy metals are most likely related to their common source [27]. Therefore, Cr, Ni, and Cu had the same origin in different subsidence ponds.…”

The subsidence pond is an important water resource for coal mining areas in China. In order to take full advantage of the subsidence pond, a floating photovoltaic cover or a pillaring photovoltaic cover were installed on the surface water of the subsidence pond in the Huainan coal field. Different photovoltaic systems (floating/pilling cover) equipped in the subsidence pond may affect the water quality; thus, assessing the metals in the subsidence pond with the solar photovoltaic system is of great importance for environment control. In this research, surface water samples were collected from three different subsidence ponds, with or without the solar photovoltaic system. The concentrations of Pb, Cr, Ni, Cu, As, Mn, and Zn in the water of the subsidence pond were determined using ICP-MS and AFS. Then, the health risk posed by the heavy metal in different subsidence pond waters via the ingestion pathway was evaluated and analyzed using the assessment model recommended by USEPA. The results indicated that the mean concentrations of Pb, Cr, Ni, Cu, As, Mn, and Zn in the water of different subsidence ponds were less than the environmental quality standards for surface water (China, Grade II). Cr showed a higher non-carcinogenic risk than the other metals, and the photovoltaic cover actually decreased the total non-carcinogenic risk in the photovoltaic subsidence pond compared with the natural subsidence pond. Non-carcinogenic risks of single and total heavy metals in the subsidence ponds with or without solar photovoltaic systems were below 1; thus, these risks in different subsidence ponds were considered to be at an acceptable level. However, the potential single carcinogenic risks of Cr, Ni, and As; and the multielement carcinogenic risks of Pb, Cr, Ni, and As exceeded the limits of 1 × 10−6 and 1 × 10−4, respectively, suggesting that these metals showed single and total potential health risks in the subsidence pond, with or without the solar photovoltaic system. Further, the subsidence pond with the photovoltaic cover showed higher total carcinogenic risks in comparison with the natural subsidence pond. Therefore, a subsidence pond with a solar photovoltaic system should be monitored periodically to ensure the water safety.
