Levels Of Heavy Metals (Cd, Pb, Cu, Cr And Ni) In Tissue Of Cyprinus Carpio,Barbus Capitoand Chondrostoma Regiumfrom The Seyhan River, Turkey, M. Canli, Ö. Ay, M. Kalay
Turkish Journal of Zoology
Concentrations of cadmium, lead, copper, chromium and nickel were determined in the gill, liver and muscle of Cyprinus carpio, Barbus capito and Chondrostoma regium caught at 5 stations on the Seyhan river system. Heavy metal concentrations in the tissues tended to vary significantly among stations, and one station thought to be contaminated by hospital effluents showed particularly high metal concentration. Liver and gill tissues showed higher metal concentrations than muscle tissue. The ranges of mean metal concentrations (µg/g d.w.) were as follows: the range of cadmium concentration was 1.26-6.10, 0.96-4.72 and 0.51- 1.67, that of lead was 9.41-44.75, 5.22-37.15 and …

An Investigation On The Reproduction Of The Common Carp ( Cyprinus Carpio(Linnaeus, 1758)) From Çildir Lake-Turkey, Sedat Yerli̇, Mustafa Zengi̇n
Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
An investigation was made on the gonadosomatic index (GSI) and egg diameter of the specimens of the Common Carp ( Cyprinus carpio) caugth from Çildir Lake in the period of 1991-93. The most intensive period for the reproduction was recorded in June-August, when water temperatures were 12.9, 19.6°C respectively.
