“…The elevated zinc and iron data might be explained by greater metal bioavailability for white shrimp than the other trace metals. In either event, the ability for metal enrichment in aquatic animals has resulted in their frequent use as monitoring bioassays (Williams and Mackenzie, 2003;Lanfranchi et al, 2006;Birungi et al, 2007;Abrahamson et al, 2008).…”

“…On the one hand, among the reported POPs, PCBs dominated, followed by Chlordanes and DDTs. On the other hand, in 2006, Endosulfan sulfate, Chlordanes, HCH isomers and DDT compounds dominated in tissues and ingested food of fish (Cynoscion guatucupa), from Bahía Blanca Estuary (Lanfranchi et al, 2006). These authors also identifiedChlordane, Heptachlor and p,p´-DDE as the major bioaccumulated and biomagnified OCs.…”

“…Fish is widely used to monitor the environmental conditions, as they are the bio-indicators and they take contaminants directly from water and diet (Lanfranchi et al, 2006). Agriculture and their allied sectors like dairy, fisheries is one of the largest contributors to the gross domestic product (GDP) i.e.…”
