These values were lower than those reported earlier in fish species of different lakes (Aucoin et al, 1999;Mendil et al, 2005 concentrations of Zn in liver were higher than muscle.…”

“…Heavy metals from natural and anthropogenic sources are continuously released into aquatic ecosystem (Oymak et al, 2009). Due to their toxicity, long persistence, bioaccumulative and nonbiodegradable properties in the food chain, heavy metals constitute a core group of aquatic pollutants (Uysal et al, 2008;Moorthikumar and Muthulingm, 2010).…”

The effect of nickel on hematological parameters and behaviour in Cyprinus carpio after a 96 h exposure to nickel test was investigated. Cyprinus carpio fingerlings were obtained from local fish hatchery. Morphometric characteristics of experimental fish were recorded. Fish of both sexes were stocked without discrimination. The fish were exposed to different concentrations (0, 6, 9, 12, 15 and 18 mg/l) of nickel sulphate using standard screening procedure. The mortality rate of the experimental fish was increased with increase in concentration of nickel. The 96 h median lethal concentration (96 h LC50) was 12.44 mg Ni/L using the logarithmic method with dose-mortality regression line y = 188.224x -86.52. The dissolved oxygen concentration decreased with increase in the level of Ni. All the blood parameters (erythrocyte, leucocytes, hematocrit and hemoglobin count) decreased with increasing dose of nickel and become significantly lower (P < 0.05) at higher concentration when compared with the control. Mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) were also lowered with concentration of toxicant when compared with the control. The results of the present study showed that a short-term exposures to high levels of nickel induced stress reactions in C. carpio. Some adaptive changes were observed; preparing the organism to an increased energy expense, whereas other changes showed a considerable immunosuppressive effect of stress. It was concluded that changes observed indicate that hematological parameters can be used as an indicator of Ni stress in C. carpio.

“…In the literature lead contents in the muscle of fish have been reported as 0.39 mg kg -1 in Labeo rohita and 1.32 mg kg -1 in Ctenopharyngodon idella in lake of Bhopal, India (Malik et al 2010), 1.23 mg kg -1 in Tor grypus in Atatürk Dam Lake, Turkey (Oymak et al 2009). Also, the mean of lead concentrations in muscle of B. grypus and B. xanthopterus in Karoon and Dez Rivers in Khouzestan, Iran, were reported as: 1.75, 1.29 and 2.37, 0.95 mg kg -1 respectively (Mohammadi et al 2011).…”

Bioaccumulation of lead was determined in muscle and liver of Barbus xanthopterus, Liza abu, Barbus grypus, Acanthopagrus latus, Platycephalus indicus, Otolithes ruber exposed to lead contaminated river and marine in Khouzestan. Significant variations in metal values were evaluated using student's t test at p < 0.05. In river fish, liver was polluted in comparison with muscle and high level was in B. xanthopterus (2.80 mg kg(-1) wet weight) except for B. grypus in Karkhe River (1.73 mg kg(-1)wet weight). In marine fish, muscle was contaminated than liver and high level was in O. ruber (47.18 mg kg(-1)wet weight) except for O. ruber in Mahshahr seaport (17.85 mg kg(-1) wet weight).
