Abstract
Subarnarekha river is a rainfall-projecting river passing through the industrial city of Jamshedpur, Ghatsila of Jharkhand, Paschim Medinipur of West Bengal, and Kirtania of Odisha state in India. The heavy metal concentration of Cd, Cu, Pb, Ni, Mn, Zn, and Cr was determined in three fish species collected from the river Subarnarekha during the premonsoon season using inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry for five sampling stations that are observed stressed with high concentration due to industrialization, urbanization, and anthropogenic activities. Concentrations of different heavy metals in the fish overdid the recommended food standards for Cu, Pb, Ni, Cd, Mn, and Zn in many samples. Here the estimated accumulation of heavy metals in fish was in order Cu>Zn>Ni>Mn>Cr>Pb and Cd, respectively.
