aluminum; animal and human health; aquatic environment; arsenic; bioavailability; cadmium; chemical speciation; chromium; copper; hepatopancreas; humans; lead; mercury; nickel; oxygen; pH; reproductive system; research; risk assessment; salinity; seafoods; sediment contamination; sediments; silver; systematic review; toxicity
Abstract:
... Metals, many of which are potentially toxic, are present in the aquatic environment originated from both natural and anthropogenic sources. In these ecosystems, these elements are mostly deposited in the sediment, followed by water dissolution, potentially contaminating resident biota. Among several aquatic animals, crustaceans are considered excellent bioindicators, as they live in close contact ...
