Özet
BackgroundTrace elements play dual roles in marine ecosystems and human health, acting as trace elements (e.g., Cu, Fe, Se, Zn) or toxic contaminants (e.g., Hg, As). This study investigates the bioaccumulation of 14 trace elements in Sarda sarda, a commercially and ecologically important species, to evaluate size- and season-dependent trends and their implications for environmental health and nutritional security.MethodsThis study investigated the bioaccumulation of heavy metals (mercury (Hg), lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni)) and trace elements (arsenic (As), zinc (Zn), iron (Fe), selenium (Se), copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), aluminum (Al), boron (B), lithium (Li)) in Sarda sarda individuals categorized by size classes (small, medium, large, based on body length and weight) sampled monthly from the Sinop fishery, Turkey, in September, October, and November 2023.
