Bu çalışmada petrol rafinerisinin bulunduğu Aliağa Körfezi'nin çeşitli yerlerinden toplanmış kaya balıklarının (Gobius niger) karaciğer dokusu alınarak ağır metal içerikleri (Cd, Ni, Se, Zn, Cu.Cr) ölçülmüştür. Aliağa bölgesinden alınan örneklerde ağır metal birikimine minumum düzeyde rastlanmıştır. Ayrıca alınan datanın fiziksel (boy) ve mevsime (yaz ve ilkbahar) göre dağılımı incelendiğinde metal birikiminin dağılımında farklılıklar olduğu saptanmıştır.
The accumulation of some heavy metals in the liver tissues of black gobby (Gobius niger L, 1758) living in the aegean sea. The heavy metal concentrations (Cd, Ni, Se, Zn, Cu, Cr) in the liver tissues of Gobius niger which are collected from various parts of Aliağa Bay, where a petroleum refinery is located, have been measured in this study. The accumulation of heavy metals in the collected samples from Aliağa region have been found to be minumum. in addition the physical measurements lenght) of the samples and season (summer ,and spring) of the samples they were collected in taken into consideration, yielding to differences in the distribution of heavy metal accumulation.
