    (Birkhauser Verlag Ag, 1996) Unlu, E; Akba, O; Sevim, S; Gumgum, B
    The heavy metal levels in the muscle, liver, gonad, gill and intestine of mullet (Liza abu) from the Tigris River in Turkey were studied. The average levels showed that concentrations of Co, Ct, Cu, Mn, Ni and Zn in the mullet varied depending on different organs. Cd and Pb were not detected while Co was detected only in intestine samples. Cr, Cu, Mn. Ni and Zn were found in all the samples analyzed. All the fish samples contain high concentrations of Co, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni and Zn. The high concentrations of heavy metals may be directly related to the contamination of the Tigris River by a copper plant.
