Bioaccumulation of selected metals in fresh water haruan fish (channa striatus) collected from Pahang River Basin, Malaysia

A study on Copper (Cu), Zinc (Zn) and Lead(Pb) concentration in fresh water fish Channastriatus -Haruan fish in Pahang, Malaysia was conducted. Three types of fish organs were studied. The organs were; liver, muscle and intestine. They were dissected and dried before the digestion process using HNO3...
