Distribution of metals in organs of Clarias gariepinus, Heterobranchus bidorsalis, and Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus from the Offin River at Dunkwa-on-Offin, Ghana.
All heavy metals are potentially harmful to most organisms at some level of exposure and absorption. Concentrations of Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Zn, Hg, Cd, As, and Pb were determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS) in three fish species (C. gariepinus, C. nigrodigitatus, and H. bidorsalis) from the Offin River in Dunkwa township, Ghana. In the fish species, gills, livers, and muscles were analyzed. The metal that recorded the highest concentration was Zn, which was highly accumulated in the liver of C. gariepinus, but had the lowest concentration in the muscles of C. nigrodigitatus.
期刊介绍:
The Japanese Journal of Veterinary Research (JJVR) quarterly publishes peer-reviewed articles on all aspects of veterinary science. JJVR was originally published as a “University Journal” of veterinary science at Hokkaido University from more than 60 years ago. Currently, JJVR, is Japan’s leading scientific veterinary journal, and provides valuable information for the development of veterinary science by welcoming contributions from researchers worldwide.
JJVR offers online submission for Regular Papers, Short Communications, and Review Articles that are unpublished and not being considered for publication elsewhere. Research areas include:
Anatomy, Physiology, Biochemistry, Pharmacology, Microbiology, Infectious diseases, Parasitology, Laboratory Animal Science and Medicine, Internal Medicine, Surgery, Pathology, Theriogenology, Molecular Medicine, Public Health, Radiation Biology, Toxicology, Wildlife Biology and Medicine, Veterinary Hygiene, The other fields related to veterinary science.
