Effect of Acanthocephalus lucii Infection on Total Mercury Concentrations in Muscle and Gonads of Fish Host (Perca fluviatilis)

Original language description

The samples from 13 perches (Perca fluviatilis) ? muscle with skin and bones; fish gonads; and acanthocephalan parasites were analysed for mercury (Hg). Hg concentrations were present in all analysed samples. There were found no statisticky significant diference in Hg concentration in fish tissues between perches either with or without infection by the acanthocephalan parasite, Acanthocephalus lucii). In this study there was no evidence that acanthocephalan worms accumulate mercury from hosts. For thisreason, A.lucii is not a suitable bioindicator for mercury pollution.
