Human health risk assessment and bioaccumulation of trace metals in fish species collected from the Miri coast, Sarawak, Borneo.

TL;DR: The level of elements in the edible muscle tissues of all the analyzed fish species from the Miri coast are below the maximum permissible limits of Malaysian and International seafood guideline values and safe for consumers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bioaccumulation of trace metals in the coastal Borneo (Malaysia) and health risk assessment.

TL;DR: The estimated daily intake and hazard indices of all metals in the muscle indicate that the measured values were below the provisional tolerable daily intake suggested by the joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives.

Accumulation of toxic elements in an invasive crayfish species (Procambarus clarkii) and its health risk assessment to humans

TL;DR: The calculated estimated daily intake (EDI) and hazard indices (HI) of the analyzed elements in the tissue organs of Procambarus clarkii and Macrobrachium nipponense species were lower than the Chinese Food Health Criterion and international guideline values and results in no acute toxicities and thus, safe for human consumption.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contamination profile of heavy metals in marine fish and shellfish.

TL;DR: The investigation indicated that the fish, prawn and crab species of this port were safe for human consumption but the safe disposal of various wastes should be practiced to control the heavy metal accumulation in future.

Investigation of heavy metal levels in economically important fish species captured from the Tuzla lagoon

TL;DR: In this article, heavy metal concentrations were measured in the muscle, gill, liver and gonad of three fish species (Sparus aurata, Dicentrarchus labrax and Mugil cephalus) from the Tuzla Lagoon.
