“…The HCH levels in all loach were approximately similar between all the territories under study and did not depend on species (in the Songhua River). It is worth noting that, in all cases, the DDT concentrations were higher than the HCH concentrations, which differs from the patterns found in the more northerly areas (the Russian Far East and the adjacent seas) [ 79 , 80 , 81 , 82 , 83 ]. Furthermore, it is reported that the use of the aquatic organisms under study poses risks to the health of local farmers who actively consume loach as food.…”

Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are well-known contaminants that raise serious concerns, even more than 20 years after they were banned. Their worldwide distribution and persistence necessitate continuous monitoring in all components of the environment. The most challenging issues of POP regulation are associated with international water resources because their solutions require international cooperation in environment protection. This review provides data on various POPs (DDT, HCH, endrin, dieldrin, and PCBs) and their concentrations in aquatic organisms inhabiting the Amur River basin, one of the most poorly explored regions of Northeast Asia. Most studies have been conducted in the Songhua River (China), a tributary of the Amur River, which indicates that large inland bodies of water, especially those of international importance, require more extensive research.

“…Of the toxic residues, organochlorine (OC) pesticide residues in water are absorbed more through the gills than through stomach, being deposited in fish muscles. Following the ban on the use of OC pesticides in the developed countries, decreasing OC concentra tions in Pacific salmon species were reported for the period from 2012 to 2018 [46]. How ever, OCs have continued to be used in some African and Asian countries, despite th knowledge about their potential hazards through food fish.…”

Global marine fish harvests have reached a plateau over the last decade, and efforts to increase aquaculture tend to face limitations in terms of water resources and contamination problems. Of the current fish harvest, at least 50% is discarded as waste. The current situation requires efforts to process, preserve, and utilize the fish capture to minimize waste. Chemical and microbiological contamination limit the utilization of harvested fish. There is a need to improve fish preservation to minimize spoilage and to process them into more appealing products. Instead of resorting to individual food-processing methods, the efficiency of processing could best be increased by a combination of conventional and modern processing methods or by combinations of modern processing methods. Fish waste is a rich source of oils containing essential fatty acids, polypeptides, and amino polysaccharides that could be utilized through the upscaling of current scientifically proven methods to new processing technologies. The separation of collagens, gelatins, bioactive peptides, edible fish oils, and chitosan form the primary stages in the utilization of fish waste. The products need purification to meet food quality and safety standards and to have desirable industrial characteristics. The diversity of information and products generated through new methods require advanced data handling and prediction systems, such as artificial intelligence, to address food safety and to derive the best out of fish processing and utilization.

“…The OC and the other persistent organic pollutants tend to accumulate in the fatty tissues of the fish, reaching toxic concentrations. The exposure of consumers to OC through salmon and other fish in the Western United States (Schafer & Kegley, 2002), and decreasing concentrations in the Pacific salmon over 2012 to 2018 (Donets et al., 2021) indicate the risk, and the tendency of lowered risk associated with banning of the OC in agriculture, respectively. However, some countries in Asia and Africa continue to use OC pesticides.…”

The marine finfish and crustaceans contribute immensely to human nutrition. Harvesting marine food‐fish to meet the global demand has become a challenge due to reduction of the fishery areas and food safety hazards associated with increased pre‐harvest and post‐harvest contaminations. The causes of low fish availability and contaminations were reviewed following the published literature from 2000 to 2023. The marine fish yields are stressed due to spread of contaminants triggered by rising sea temperatures, transport of microorganisms by marine vessels across the oceans, anthropogenic activities leading to increase in the toxic microorganisms, and the entry of toxic chemicals and antibiotic residues into the seawater through rivers or directly. Processing adds pyrogenic chemicals to foods. The hazardous materials may accumulate in the food‐fish, beyond tolerance limits permitted for human foods. While the research and control measures focus on minimizing the hazards due to pathogenic microorganisms and chemicals in market fish, there is less discussion on the unhealthy changes occurring in the oceans affecting the quantity and quality of food‐fish, and the origins of microbial and chemical contaminations. This review examines the factors affecting availability of wild food‐fish and increased contaminations. It aims to bridge the knowledge gaps between the spread of hazardous agents in the marine environment, and their effects on the food‐fish. Meeting the future human food security and safety through marine fish and fish products may need marine cage farming, introduction of genetically modified high yielding food‐fish, and cultured contaminant free finless fish muscles as options.
