Evaluation of trace metals concentration and human health implication by indigenous edible fish species consumption from Meghna River in Bangladesh

This study is focused on the determination of trace metals (Cr, Cu, Zn, As, Pb, and Cd) concentrations of nine different indigenous fish species of Meghna River in Bangladesh to know the possible risk in human consumption. Fishes' wet muscles samples were analyzed to evaluate the level of trace...
