Abstract
Accumulation of cadmium (Cd) was investigated in organs (gill, liver, kidney, intestine) of olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) exposed to sub-lethal concentration (5, 10, 50, 100 g/L) of Cd for 30 days. Cd exposure resulted in an increased Cd accumulation in liver of flounder for exposure periods and Cd concentration, and Cd accumulation increased linearly with the exposure time. At 20 days of Cd exposure. the order of Cd accumulation in organs was Bill>intestine>liver>kidney and after 30 days of exposure, Cd accumulation in organs was intestine>liver>gill>idney. An inverse relationship was observed between the accumulation factor (AS) and the exposure level, but AE shows an increase with exposure time.
