Reductions of Cd in a Cd-contaminated fish by long-term exposure to EDTA or fresh-water

The variations in Cd levels with the passage of time in the viscera and gills of carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) after exposure to 0.01 and 0.05 ppm Cd containing water for 3 months were determined. After 3 months, the fish were treated with fresh-water. The fresh-water treatment produced slow recovery in the viscera, but the Cd concentration in the gills remained approximately the same. From the results of the study, it was postulated that the recovery of fish contaminated with Cd and other heavy metals would seem possible due to loose bindings of the metals to protein of the fish.
