Marine biomonitoring with lead isotopic compositions and metal concentrations using coastal British Columbia pink salmon ...
Fish biomonitoring by quantifying metals is a method with global applications for aquatic environmental health. Such studies measure anthropogenic metal contamination and often include an assessment of human health risks from fish consumption. However, these techniques are infrequently applied to co...

Fish biomonitoring by quantifying metals is a method with global applications for aquatic environmental health. Such studies measure anthropogenic metal contamination and often include an assessment of human health risks from fish consumption.

This study tests different methods to (1) optimize fish preparation methods for biogeochemical analyses to minimize metal contamination, (2) quantify metals in fish tissues to determine the best samples for metal biomonitoring, and apply these methods to wild pink Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) to (3) demonstrate applications and limitations of analyzing Pb isotopic compositions in concert with metal concentrations in marine fish biomonitoring.
