Shaik Umme Salma, Ramachandra Naik A T
The increasing levels of heavy metals in the environment, their entry into the
food chain and the overall health effects on people who consume fish are of the
major concern to researches in the field of food and nutrition, because heavy
metal toxicity is a result of long term, low level exposure to pollutants through air,
water and numerous consumer food products.Heavy metals are environmental
pollutants and their toxicity is a problem in increasing significance of ecological,
evolutionary and nutritional reasons. They are ubiquitous in environment and
higher concentrations poses serious threat to the aquatic ecosystem.
