ABSTRACT / САЖЕТАК:
Consumption of fish has increased in last 50 years. Fish as a food is changing red meat because it has unsaturated fat and it is the best source of omega 3 fatty acids. Beside it is full of minerals, vitamins and it has high biological value of proteins.The content of heavy metals in the muscle tissue of fish is directly related to the pollution of the water they come from
The analysis of the content of heavy metals was done by the Institute of Public Health of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina.The content of lead (Pb) in the tested samples of fresh fish ranged from 0.0015 to 0.0381 mg/kg. The measured content of cadmium (Cd) in the examined samples was in the range of 3.3*10-5 to 0.0053 mg/kg. The content of arsenic (As) in the tested samples ranged from 0.0085 to 1.1668 mg/kg. The mercury (Hg) content in the tested samples of fresh fish ranged from 0.0033 to 0.0991 mg/kg, which is within the allowed values prescribed by the Rulebook. It has been statistically proven that there is a significant difference in the measured values of lead, arsenic and cadmium in the samples of sea and freshwater fish.
Aim of this work was to establish do the samples of fresh fish contain concentration of heavy metals more than concentrations prescribed in Rule book about allowed amounts of certain contaminants in food. Thereby ten samples of fresh fish were tested, five samples of marine fish and five samples of freshwater fish. Results showed that all samples of fish satisfy allowed concentration of heavy metals according to the Rule book.
