Abstract

Background and Aim: Heavy metals can be serious threat to food security because of the ability to accumulate in the body of fishes. Therefore, considering the important role of fish play in human nutrition, determination of the Heavy metals concentrations is necessary especially in the edible parts of the fishs, . Therefore, the present study aimed to determine the accumulated proportions of lead, Cadmium, and mercury in the tissues of three different types of fishes including Tuna (Scomberomoruscommerson), Tap(Thunnustonggol), and Tilapia due (Oreochromisniloticus) in Jiroft city. Materials and Methods: In order to investigate the concentrations of Heavy metals including mercury, lead and Cadmium in muscle tissues of three fish species, Tuna (Scomberomoruscommerson), Tap(Thunnustonggol), and Tilapia due (Oreochromisniloticus), 20 pieces of these fish species were randomly collected from fish sellers in Jiroft city in winter 2017. Samples were prepared by acid digestion. Data analysis was performed using SPSS 19 software, ANOVA and t-test. The presence or absence of significant difference was determined at 5% level (P <0. 05). Results: The results showed that there was a significant difference between the accumulation of lead and Cadmium in Tuna, Tap and tilapia muscle tissue (p <0/05) and the rate of lead accumulation in the tuna, tilapia, andtap was 0. 19 ± 0. 07, 0. 81± 0. 66 and 0. 43 ± 0. 47 respectively. Cadmium concentrations also were 0. 49 ± 0. 26, 1. 35 ± 0. 22, and 1. 52 ± 0. 23 μ g/g in tuna, tap, and Tilapia. However, there was no significant difference between the amount of mercury accumulation in the muscle tissue of these three fish species (P≤ 0/ 05). Conclusion: The concentration of mercury in the fish muscle tissue was lower than the global standard but the two metals of Cadmium and lead in the tissues of Tilapia and tap were higher than the global standard.
