Abstract

In this study, it was aimed to determine heavy metal levels in muscle tissues of Atlantic bonito samples caught in the Eastern Black Sea Region and to determine their potential to pose a risk to human health. The concentrations of Fe, Zn, Cu, Pb, Mn, and Al have been measured in the edible muscle of Atlantic bonito (Sarda sarda Bloch, 1793) from the Trabzon and Rize coasts of the southern Black Sea from September 2020 to December 2020. Cd, Cr, Co, and Ni were not detected in the edible part of S. sarda in both coastal areas. These concentrations are lower than the maximum permissible values in European and Turkish regulations. The average weekly intake of heavy metals per body weight value not exceeded the Provisional Tolerable Weekly Intake (PTWI) established. Therefore, it may be concluded that these ten metals should not pose any health threat to the consumers resulting from the consumption of S. sarda.

Türkiye'nin Karadeniz Kıyılarında Yakalanan Sarda Sarda'da (Bloch, 1793) Ağır Metal Konsantrasyonları ve Sağlık Riski Değerlendirmesi

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, Doğu Karadeniz Bölgesinde yakalanan palamut örneklerinin kas dokularındaki ağır metal seviyelerinin belirlenmesi ve insan sağlığı açısından risk oluşturma potansiyellerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Karadeniz'in Trabzon ve Rize kıyılarında avlanan palamutun (Sarda sarda Bloch, 1793) yenilebilir kaslarında Fe, Zn, Cu, Pb, Mn ve Al konsantrasyonları ölçülmüştür. Eylül 2020'den Aralık 2020'ye kadar deniz. Her iki kıyı bölgesinde de S. sarda'nın yenilebilir kısmında Cd, Cr, Co ve Ni tespit edilmedi. Bu konsantrasyonlar, Avrupa ve Türkiye yönetmeliklerinde izin verilen maksimum değerlerden daha düşüktür. Vücut ağırlığı değerleri başına haftalık ortalama ağır metal alımı, belirlenen Geçici Tolere Edilebilir Haftalık Alım (PTWI) değerini aşmadı. Bu nedenle, S. sarda tüketiminden kaynaklanan bu 6 metalin tüketiciler için herhangi bir sağlık tehdidi oluşturmaması gerektiği sonucuna varılabilir.
