gigas from Quiberon Bay, Brittany, France]]>OngM.C. ShaziliN.A.M. MenierD. EffendyA.W.M. 2201382The concentration of trace elements, copper, zinc, cadmium and lead in the
two oyster species (Ostrea edulis) and (Crassostrea gigas) collected
from mariculture sites in the Quiberon bay were studied to investigate metal
contamination in the surrounding area and its significant risk assessment to
human who consumed the both species. Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb were analyzed by using
inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry after acid digestion process. Certified
reference materials, Oyster tissue, SRM1556a was used to validate the methods
and the results shown a good agreement with the certified values. The levels
of Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb in oyster flesh were 0.26-14.5, 4.61-83.9, 0.01-0.11 and
0.02-0.41 mg kg-1 wet weight. Element levels in C. gigas were
generally higher than O. edulis. Element concentrations in the flesh
were assessed for human consumption according to Provisional Tolerable Weekly
Intake (PTWI) and Provisional Tolerable Daily Intake (PTDI). Due to their bioaccumulation
capacity of trace elements, both oysters
species had the potential of being used as biomonitors to control the aquatic
contaminations by trace elements.]]>Agusa, T., T. Kunito, G. Yasunaga, H. Iwata, A. Subramanian, A. Ismail and S. Tanabe,200551896911Amiard, J.C., C. Amiard-Triquet, L. Charbonnier, A. Mesnil, P.S.
