Scorpionfish (Scorpaena porcus) is a demersal fish
species commercially important for its of which meat is tough
and delicious. The aim of this study was to determine heavy
metal (Al, Cu, Ni, As, Cd, Hg, Pb, U) concentrations in this
fish species which is traditionally consumed in the Black Sea
Area and, to compare the concentrations of various toxic elements
in different organs of the fish specimens (muscle, liver,
gill, and skin). Within this scope, the mineralization was performed
using microwave digestion system. Thirty-two scor
pionfish caught from Sinop Inland Port during 2010 were
analyzed. The heavy metal concentrations were determined
with the method of inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy
(ICP-MS). Verification of the method was demonstrated
by analysis of standard reference material (NRCC-TORT-2
lobster hepatopancreas). After evaluation of the results, it
was determined that the highest heavy metal accumulation
was generally found in the liver. The maximum aluminum
level and the minimum uranium level were found in the analyzed
tissues. In terms of heavy metals, Al, Cu, Cd, and Hg
showed a statistically significant difference between tissues
(p < 0.05). It was determined that heavy metal concentrations
obtained from the muscle tissues did not exceed the national
and international recommended limits; and also it was found
that daily intake amounts did not exceed tolerable daily intake
amounts. Furthermore, in THQ based risk evaluation, the value
1 which is crucial for children and adults was not sur
passed. In terms of public health, it was found out that there
was not any risk in consumption of scorpionfish in the study
area.
