STUDY OF THE COPPER, CHROMIUM AND LEAD CONTENT IN MUGIL CEPHALUS AND ELEGINOPS MACLOVINUS OBTAINED IN THE MOUTHS OF THE MAULE AND MATAQUITO RTVERS (MAULE REGION, CHILE)

The Cu, Cr and Pb concentrations were determined in Mugil cephalus and Eleginops maclovinus, fish species inhabiting the mouths of the Maule and Mataquito Rivers (Maule Región, Chile) which are consumed by the coastal population in large quantities. Measurements were taken by fíame atomic absorption...

Measurements were taken by fíame atomic absorption spectroscopy to analyse representative muscle tissue of the two species. The method was validated using certified reference material (DOLT-1). The concentration ranges of Cu, Cr and Pb (mg· kg-1, dry weight) mMugil cephalus from the Maule river were: Cu 0.5-36.2; Cr 0.3-6.3; Pb 0.4-11.2 and from the Mataquito river varied between: Cu 0.6-23.2; Cr 0.3-6.0 and Pb 0.4-11.1. Forthe species Eleginops maclovinus from the Maule river the concentration ranges were: Cu 0.8-13.2; Cr 0.2-5.6; Pb 0.2-9.6 and from the Mataquito river: Cu 0.5-18.4; Cr 0.2-3.2 and Pb 0.3-4.0.
