Measurement and comparison of Heavy metals( Pb,Cd) in muscle and skin in Bartail flathead (Platycephalus indicus) from Mahshahr Fishing area

This study was carried out in order to measure and compare heavy metals levels (Pb and Cd) in muscle and skin of Bartail flathead {Platycephalus indicus). 15 fish were colleded from Mahshahr fishing area. After biological measurement, heavy metals were extracted thnugh wet digestion method and heavy metals were measured by Atomic Absorption spectrophotometery Perkin Elmer 4100. The average Pb concentrations in muscle and skin were 11.65 ± 4.24 and 5.82 ± 1.97 mg/kg, respectively. The average Cd concentration in muscle and skin were 4.66 ± 1.53 and 2.94 ± 1.09,respectively. The results showed that there were significant difference between Pb and Cd concentrations in muscle and skin Bart with comparison of results with who, NHMRC UK (MAFF), were conculed that Pb and Cd levels higher than human guid line consumption levels.
