Trace elements in the whale shark Rhincodon typus liver: an indicator of the health status of the ecosystem base (plankton)
ABSTRACT Trace elements were determined in three areas of the right (RL) and left (LL) lobe of the liver obtained from a whale shark (Rhincodon typus) stranded in Mexico. Mean ± standard error concentrations in μg g-1 wet weight were for zinc (Zn) RL: 22.5 ± 2.1; LL: 26.5 ± 7.1, arsenic (As...
