| This study was carried out in order to measure and compare heavy metals levels (Pb,Cd,Fe, Zn, Ni and
Cu) in gill and muscle of Capoeta damascina. 60 fish were caught from 3 stations in Tangeh haft zone
from Sezar river. Heavy metals were measured by Atomic Absorption spectrophotometery. The
highest concentrations of heavy metals Fe>Zn>Pb>Ni>Cu>Cd, respectively. The average heavy
metals concentration in gill and muscle have significant different (P<0.05). Gill has the highest
concentration and muscle has the lowest concentration. Heavy metals concentration in different
stations don’t have any significant different (P>0.05). The results of this study showed that there were
significant difference between heavy metals concentrations in gill, liver and muscle (P<0.05).
According to the result of this study concentrations of Pb in Capoeta damascina are height than
international standard FAO, WHO, NHMRC, UK (MAFF). |
