Bioaccumulation of Arsenic Species in Rays from the Northern Adriatic Sea

Bioaccumulation of Arsenic Species in Rays from the Northern Adriatic Sea

The difference in arsenic concentration and speciation between benthic (Pteromylaeus bovinus, Myliobatis aquila) and pelagic rays (Pteroplatytrygon violacea) from the northern Adriatic Sea (Gulf of Trieste) in relation to their size (age) was investigated. High arsenic concentrations were found in b...
