dc.description.abstractThis study carried out to investigate the potential health hazards of four hazardous metallic elements via trout consumption. Twenty specimens of big trout were purchased between March and June 2022 from Samsun Fish Market. The metallic elements were assessed by the contamination level of non-essential arsenic (As), lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), and cadmium (Cd) in the edible tissues of big trout. The results didn't show any significant differences between months. The lowest metal level was Cd, followed by Hg Pb and As. The mean As, Pb, Hg and Cd concentrations were found to be 0.060, 0.023, 0.005 and 0.001 mg/kg wet wt., respectively, which was far below the both national and internationally permissible values. The findings of the assessment of potential dangers to human health revealed that the indices for estimated weekly intake (EWI) and target hazard quotient (THQ) are below the specified welfare standards. Additionally, there was no potential carcinogenic risk to human health because the total THQs, hazard index (HI) and the total carcinogenic risk (TCR) index fell below the thresholds. In conclusion, it was determined that the consumption of Oncorhynchus mykiss taken from Samsun Fish Market did not cause any health problems.
