英文摘要 | The present study was mainly focused on the distribution of metals (Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn) in commercially important marine finfish and shellfish resources collected from the Tuticorin coast of the Gulf of Mannar, Southeastern India. Sixty-six species were collected in all four seasons for the analysis of metals. The order of bioaccumulation of metals in fishes is (Zn > Pb > Cu > Cd), in Crustaceans is (Zn > Pb > Cu > Cd), and in mollusks is (Pb > Zn > Cu > Cd). The human health risk assessment factors such as BCF, THQ, and HI were higher in most of the tested animals. The outcome of the present study will sound the alarm to the community about heavy metal contamination of sea foods. We conclude that continuous monitoring of the ecosystem is essential to the maintenance of the pristine ecosystem and quality of the seafood. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd |
