“…Present results were slightly higher than those reported in previous literature regarding sh from Bangladesh (Ahmed et al, 2015;Saha & Zaman, 2013;Rahman et al, 2012). Higher EDI values of trace metals in sh were also observed in earlier studies in respect to present results (Kumar & Mukherjee, 2011;Krishna et al, 2014;Sadeghi et al, 2019).…”

“…India has been found to contain arsenic as 0.35 ± 0.08 mg kg − 1 in L. rohita from tropical wetlands(Kumar & Mukherjee, 2011); 2.9 ± 0.6 mg kg − 1 in hilsa shad from Ganga river of India(Mohanty et al, 2017). Arsenic concentration has been recorded in higher magnitude comparing to present study in previous studies for sh from Oman(Sadeghi et al, 2019), Arabian Gulf(Kamal et al, 2015), Persian Gulf(Cunningham et al, 2019), Pakistan(Shah et al, 2009).…”

Substantial quantity of fish has been imported to Bangladesh without adequate food safety assessment which can pose a serious health risk to local people. This study analyzed the trace metals and organochlorine pesticides residues and the associated human health risk in 33 imported fishes (9 species) from four countries (India, Myanmar, Oman and United Arab Emirates) collected from three different ports (Benapole, Bhomra, and Chittagong) of Bangladesh with invoice lists from the port authorities. Trace metal concentrations were determined using graphite furnace absorption spectrometry and flame absorption spectrometry. The two organochlorine pesticides (Aldrin and Chlordane) residues were determined by GC-MS and found as below detection level (BDL). The trace metal concentrations (mg/kg-ww) in imported fish samples ranged as: As: 0.008 to 0.558; Pb: 0.004 to 0.070; Cr: 0.010 to 0.109; Cd: 0.00 to 0.083; Ni: 0.011 to 0.059; Co: BDL to 0.067; Mn: BDL to 0.0780; Fe: 1.780 to 10.77; Cu: 0.055 to 0.632; and Zn: 0.898 to 9.245. Concentrations of As and Cd were higher than the food safety guideline. Considering the source country of imported fishes, fish samples from Oman were mostly contaminated by the trace metals. The estimated daily intake (EDI) was higher for As and Cr. However, the target hazard quotient (THQ) for individual metal and total THQ for combined metals were lower than 1, indicating no apparent non-carcinogenic health risk for consumers. But target cancer risk (TR) was higher for As, and Ni and the values exceeded the acceptable range indicating a high carcinogenic risk for the local people. Therefore, extensive monitoring of these toxic chemicals is needed prior to import these fishes to the country. Given the self-sufficiency in fish production this study also argues whether Bangladesh needs to import the fishes at all.

“…The authors concluded that these results provide updated information on an antibiotic and its ecological risk assessment for the area. Sadeghi, Loghmani, and Afsa (2019) examined for the concentration of heavy metals in the tissues of Otolithes ruber as well as surface sediments in the Sea of Oman. The study investigated the metals of Cd, Nickel (Ni), chromium (Cr), Pb, and arsenic (As).…”

The literature review presented in this paper includes the ecological and human health risk assessment in the form of receptors in the environment. The main objective of this review to highlight a summary of the many studies undertaken in the year 2019. The first part of the review covers the papers published on the health risk assessment related to human and ecological health. This article focuses on methods and tools utilized for the analysis of scientific studies and the data. The review provides main issues such as interpretation of data, uncertainty, and policies related to the management of risks. The ecological and human health risk assessment is divided into two main sections. Each of these sections presents in broad the risk assessment process namely pollution studies, remediation, and tools required for the management of natural resources and the environment.

“…The liver is an essential organ in heavy metal accumulation due to its role in fish metabolism (Squadrone et al 2013). Muscle is significant in the human diet and used as an excellent tool for the health risk assessment in heavy metal pollution (Yi et al 2017;Sadeghi et al 2019). Tail fin can be used to heavy metal biomonitoring without killing fish (Mziray and Kimirei 2016) that needs more studies.…”

This study was performed to determine the concentrations of copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), and lead (Pb) in the gill, liver, muscle, and tail fin tissues of Euthynnus affinis, Katsuwonus pelamis, and Thunnus albacares from Oman Sea. All samples were analyzed using a flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer and the results were expressed as μg g −1 dry weight. Metal concentrations were significantly higher in the liver than other tissues in three species (with some exceptions) (p < 0.05). The concentrations of metal accumulation in tissues of tuna species followed the Zn > Cu > Pb. Correlation matrix and principal component analysis (PCA) revealed that Zn and Pb have anthropogenic sources. Estimated daily intake (EDI) in three tuna species for heavy metals were below the tolerable daily intake (TDI). Also, the mean target hazard quotient (THQ) based on studied metals in three tuna species was below 1, which suggests that consumption of these fish can be safe for human health in the Oman Sea.
