Heavy metal accumulation and health risk assessment of crayfish in the middle and lower reaches of Yangtze River during 2015-2017

Ying Li et al.

Summary: This study analyzed and assessed the presence of five heavy metals in crayfish samples collected from six provinces in the middle and lower reaches of Yangtze River. The results showed significant correlations between arsenic, lead, and cadmium, as well as spatial similarities in heavy metal contamination among provinces. The study also highlighted the potential health risks posed by mercury exposure in Anhui province.

Toxic arsenic in marketed aquatic products from coastal cities in China: Occurrence, human dietary exposure risk, and coexposure risk with mercury and selenium

Chenqi Guo et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the types and levels of arsenic in 124 marketed aquatic products from eight coastal cities in China and investigated the distribution characteristics of toxic arsenic and the associated health risks. The results showed that shellfish contained more toxic arsenic and DMA was the major component of toxic arsenic in aquatic products. Residents who consumed a large amount of aquatic products had potential health risks, which requires attention.

Zn contamination stimulate agonistic behavior and oxidative stress of crayfishes (Procambarus clarkii)

Samar Mamdouh et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the effects of zinc contamination on crayfish's agonistic behavior and oxidative damage, finding that higher water zinc concentrations led to increased aggressive behavior and higher levels of malondialdehyde and catalase, while glutathione concentrations decreased. The study concluded that zinc exposure can induce increased social status and oxidative stress in Procambarus clarkii, with potential population-level consequences.

Rice-crayfish coculture delivers more nutrition at a lower environmental cost

Qiang Xu et al.

Summary: Rice-crayfish coculture produces more nutrition per hectare compared to rice monoculture and crayfish monoculture, but has a larger environmental footprint. By increasing productivity per hectare and improving fertilizer and feed use efficiency, the environmental burdens of rice-crayfish coculture could be further reduced.

Assessment of some trace elements accumulation in Karst lake sediment and Procambarus clarkii, in Guizhou province, China

Na An et al.

Summary: The quality of lake wetlands has decreased due to elevated concentrations of certain trace elements. Consuming crayfish from these trace element concentrated lake wetlands can be hazardous for waterbirds and human health. This study quantified the bioaccumulation of Cd, Ni, Pb, and Zn in sediments and abdominal muscles of Procambarus clarkii in Caohai lake wetland, China. The results showed significantly elevated levels of Cd, Ni, Pb, and Zn in sediment, and some samples of crayfish had Cd, Pb, and Zn levels exceeding the maximum permissible limits. These findings suggest that lake sediment could be an important source of feed for P. clarkii and that normal consumption of crayfish posed low to no health risk for waterbirds and local inhabitants.

Ecological and potential socioeconomic impacts of two globally-invasive crayfish

Takudzwa C. Madzivanzira et al.

Summary: The impacts of two invasive crayfish species on freshwater ecosystems in Africa are more destructive than those of native crabs, as they consume higher amounts of macrophytes and fish. This study highlights the importance of considering geographical and species-specific contexts in assessing the risks posed by invasive species.

Effects of heavy metals on fish physiology - A review

Md Shahjahan et al.

Summary: The pollution by heavy metals poses a serious threat to the aquatic environment and organisms. This review investigates the effects of heavy metals on fish physiology, including hemato-biochemical properties, immunological parameters, organ histopathology, and molecular mechanisms. These parameters are important bio-monitoring tools for assessing heavy metal toxicity.

Heavy metal residues, releases and food health risks between the two main crayfish culturing models: Rice-crayfish coculture system versus crayfish intensive culture system

Aijie Mo et al.

Summary: Excessive feeding and commercial feed have led to heavy metal pollution in the agricultural production system. This study systematically quantified the dynamic changes and transfer of heavy metals in a rice-crayfish coculture system (RCCS) and a crayfish intensive culture system (CICS). The results showed that RCCS had lower residues of cadmium and chromium compared to CICS, while residues of arsenic and lead were slightly higher. RCCS produced fewer heavy metal residues and had lower heavy metal discharge pressure on the external environment compared to CICS.

Summary: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of coagulants on the bioaccumulation of metal elements in crayfish and assess the associated health risks. The results showed that exposure to the coagulant affected the bioaccumulation of metals, with an increase in aluminum concentration and a decrease in calcium, iron, magnesium, zinc, and copper concentrations.
