Study on heavy metals levels and its risk assessment in some edible fishes from Bangshi River, Savar, Dhaka, Bangladesh.
TL;DR: It was showed that, Zn was the most and Cd was the least accumulated metal in the studied fish muscles, and there was no possible health risk to consumers due to intake of studied fishes under the current consumption rate.
