Abstract
Levels of eleven trace metals in edible muscle of seven commercial fish spe
cies harvested from the south west coast of the Arabian Sea, Pakistan are r
eported The maximum concentration was found in case of Zn (3.412 mu g/g) an
d Fe (3.591 mu g/g). Maximum As (0.273 mu g/g) was found in Argyrops spinif
er and As (0.041 mu g/g) in Chaetodon jayakeri. The metal concentrations sh
owed a high species-specificity.
