Abstract
Studies on the distribution of heavy metals like copper,
cadmium, zinc, lead and mercury in deep sea prawns Pandalus
borealis in the Oslofjord region showed that those collected
from inner and middle fjord contained higher levels of heavy
metals than those from the outer fjord. Their content in the
edible portions, viz., tail muscle, was less compared to other
organs. In terms of metal concentration copper and zinc are
present in significant quantities in Pandalus borealis.
