Some heavy metals (chrome and cadmium) that enter the food chain are not discharged from fish and therefore are accumulated in their body. When they exceed a threshold concentration they may have a toxic effect or even cause death on fish. These accumulations have also an effect on fish blood and can cause physiological damage on fish. In this review article heavy metal effects on fish blood parameters, such as copper, zinc, chrome, cadmium, and mercury are discussed. Concentration level and exposure time effects on fish blood parameters are discussed in detail with respect to their physiological and ecological significance.trinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessFishblood parametersheavy metalsHeavy metal effects on fish blood parametersArticle234955N/AWOS:000440351900008
