Abstract |
During the Bremerhaven Workshop, concentrations of Hg, Cd, Pb, Cu and Zn were determined in the liver, kidney, gills and muscle of healthy and diseased dab Limanda limanda. The results of this preliminary study indicate relationships between metal concentrations and the state of health of the fish. |
