The concentration and distribution of Cr, Cu, Pb and Zn among the tissues of a freshwater
fish, Clarias gariepinus exposed to combined (composite) tannery effluent was investigated …

Heavy metals can significantly bioaccumulate in fish tissues. The step wise mechanism of
heavy metal toxicities on fish health is still limited. The present study assessed the tissue …

Present studies were designed to evaluate toxic potential of three common heavy metals,
adequately present in agro-industrial effluents, viz. mercury, arsenic and copper using in …

This book presents in detail the state of knowledge of the distribution, bioavailability,
