Abstract The current study was carried out on dominant fish Oreochromis niloticus and water collected from the polluted Yamuna River, Agra, India. heavy metals in water, recorded as follows: Fe > Mn Zn Cu Ni Cr Cd all were found to be above prescribed limits. According metal pollution index, exposed muscle (49.86), kidney (47.68) liver (45.26) have been higher bioaccumulation. blood biochemical analysis of O. indicated significant increase activities aspartate aminotransferase (+ 343.5%), alkaline phosphatase 673.6%), alanine 309.1%), creatinine 494.3%) over reference. However, a decrease albumin (A): globulins (G) ratio (− 87.86%) observed. Similarly, also showed total leucocyte count 121%), differential count, respiratory burst 1175%), nitric oxide synthase 420%). histological examination tissue injury. Moreover, micronuclei (0.95%), shaped nuclei (1.2%), lobed (0.6%) along with DNA damage form mean tail length (20.7 µm) (16.5 observed . Potential health risk assessments based estimated daily intake, target hazard quotient, cancer risks associated consumption these contaminated fishes. In conclusion, present that exposure can alter immunological response; induce histopathological alterations studied fish. this or could serious impact human health.

In this study, from same site Hanchuan, Hubei Province, China were measured by ICP-MS assess four them risk consumer. results showed that concentrations muscle lower than those hepatopancreas/ liver, except for Cr crayfish. Furthermore, Cd hepatopancreas crayfish exceeded standards European Union. Accordingly, are not recommended consumption. estimated daily intake crayfish, did exceed provisional tolerable intakes, corresponding target hazard quotient (THQ), cancer (CR) values As 1 × 10–6, respectively. However, accumulated consumption three freshwater catches could result a significant increase total THQ value. ingestion should be limited. Collectively, findings may renew interest food safety humans owing catches.

Heavy metals, common environmental pollutants with widespread distribution hazards and several health problems linked to them are distinguished from other toxic compounds by their bioaccumulation in living organisms. They pollute the food chain threaten of animals. Biologically, heavy metals exhibit both beneficial harmful effects. Certain essential such as Co, Mn, Se, Zn, Mg play crucial roles vital physiological processes trace amounts, while others like As, Pb, Hg, Cd, Cu widely recognized for properties. Regardless functions, an excess intake all beyond tolerance limit can lead toxicity. Animals face exposure through contaminated feed water, primarily a result anthropogenic pollution. After ingestion persist body extended duration nature dictates whether they induce acute or chronic, clinical subclinical, subtle toxicities. The effects disruption cellular homeostasis generation free radicals that develop oxidative stress. In cases metal poisoning, characteristic symptoms may arise, potentially culminating death animals corresponding necropsy findings. Chronic toxicities manifest decline overall condition scoring decrease production potential Elevated levels consumable animal products raise public concerns. Timely diagnosis, targeted antidotes, management strategies significantly mitigate impact on livestock health, productivity, reproductive performance.
