| a survey of size-specific mercury concentrations in game fish from maryland fresh and estuarine waters. | a survey of size-specific mercury (hg) concentrations in game fish from a subset of maryland fresh and estuarine waters was conducted, in which hg concentrations in 112 fish from seven freshwater impoundments and three tidal and four estuarine locations in chesapeake bay and its tributaries were measured. striped bass (morone saxatilis) was the most intensively examined species. of the fish examined, the largest freshwater sportfish contained the highest hg concentrations. striped bass and large ... | 2000 | 10790502 |
| fish tissue quality in the lower mississippi river and health risks from fish consumption. | between 1990 and 1994, samples of three shellfish species (i.e. blue crab, callinectes sapidus;crayfish, procambarus acutis; and river shrimp, macrobrachium ohionii) and 16 fish species and were collected at six sites along the lower mississippi river by the louisiana department of environmental quality, office of water resources in coordination with the us environmental protection agency. the fish species included: bigmouth buffalo (ictiobus cyanellus); blue catfish (ictalurus furcatus); carp ( ... | 2003 | 12526903 |
| a screening-level assessment of lead, cadmium, and zinc in fish and crayfish from northeastern oklahoma, usa. | the objective of this study was to evaluate potential human and ecological risks associated with metals in fish and crayfish from mining in the tri-states mining district (tsmd). crayfish (orconectes spp.) and fish of six frequently consumed species (common carp, cyprinus carpio; channel catfish, ictalurus punctatus; flathead catfish, pylodictis olivaris; largemouth bass, micropterus salmoides; spotted bass, m. punctulatus; and white crappie, pomoxis annularis) were collected in 2001--2002 from ... | 2006 | 16791710 |
| concentrations of cadmium, lead, and zinc in fish from mining-influenced waters of northeastern oklahoma: sampling of blood, carcass, and liver for aquatic biomonitoring. | the tri-states mining district (tsmd) of missouri (mo), kansas (ks), and oklahoma (ok), usa, was mined for lead (pb) and zinc (zn) for more than a century. mining ceased more than 30 years ago, but wastes remain widely distributed in the region, and there is evidence of surface- and groundwater contamination in the spring river-neosho river (sr-nr) system of northeastern ok. in october 2001, we collected a total of 74 fish from six locations in the sr-nr system that included common carp (cyprinu ... | 2005 | 15981034 |
| organochlorine insecticide concentrations in fish of the des moines river, iowa, 1977-78. | organochlorine insecticides were measured in fish of the des moines river, iowa, in 1977 and 1978 to determine whether concentrations exceeded allowable levels and to compare differences among species. significant differences in mean concentrations of dieldrin, sigma ddt, and heptachlor epoxide in whole-body samples of seven species of fish, dorosoma cepedianum, carpiodes carpio, cyprinus carpio, ictalurus punctatus, pomoxis annularis, micropterus salmoides, stizostedion vitreum, could not be ad ... | 1981 | 7312555 |
