Description 377-383
Levels of mercury in tissues of blue
swimming crab, Portunus pelagicus in the Persian Gulf coasts, south Iran
were investigated. Hg analysis was performed by Atomic Absorption
Spectrophotometer. Distribution pattern of Hg in the tissues of P. palagicus
was as follows: hepatopancreasn > muscle > exoskeleton. Total mercury
levels in the tissues of P. palagicus from the other six sampling
stations ranged between (4.70 ± 0.80 μg/g) and (0.10 ± 0.07 μg/g). In present
study recorded that there was negligible differences in Hg levels between P.
pelagicus sexes. Maximum concentration of the total Hg in all tissues of P.
pelagicus observes in Bahrekan station (P
