2001년 1-12월 서울시 가락농수산물시장에서 총 951건의 수산물(어류 34종 468건, 패류 17종 373건, 갑각류 10종 39건 그리고 두족류 등 11종 71건)을 대상으로 중금속 함량[average(minimum∼maximum), Unit:㎎/㎏]을 분석한 결과, Hg 0.025(N.D.∼0.19), Cd 0.288(N.D.∼1.85), pb 0.227(ND∼1.68)이었다. Hg의 경우, 패류[0.003((N.D.∼0.19)]>두족류 등[0.026(N.D.∼0.11)]>갑각류[0.026(N.D.∼0.09)]>어류[0.018(N.D.∼0.19)]순이었고, 가장 높은 함량은 미꾸라지(0.19)와 꼬막(0.19)이었으며, Pb의 경우 패류[0.223(N.D.∼1.38)]>어류[0.213(N.D.∼1.68)]>두족류 등[0.151(N.D.∼0.39)>갑각류[0.144(N.D.∼0.44)]순이었고, 가장 높은 함량은 미꾸라지(1.68)>빙어(1.44)>바지락(1.38)>뱀장어(1.35) 순이었다. 한편, Cd의 경우 패류[0.288(N.D.∼1.85)]중 가장 높은 함량은 꼬막(1.85)이었다.

The contents[average(minimum∼maximum), Unit:㎎/㎏] of hazardous heavy metals(Hg, Cd and Pb) were estimated from 951 fishery products in Seoul(468 fishes, 373 shellifishes, 39 crustaceans and 71 others) from January to December in 2001 by Atomic Absorption Spectrometer. Hg contents showed in shellfishes [0.033(N.D.∼0.19)]>others[0.026(N.D.∼0.11)]>crustaceans[0.026(N.D.∼0.09)]>fishes[0.018(N.D.∼0.19)], Misgurnus mizolepis(0.19) and Tegillarca granosa(0.19) were the highest. Pb content were shellfishes [0.223(N.D.∼1.38)]>fishes[0.213(N.D.∼1.68)]>others[0.151(N.D.∼0.39)]>crustaceans[0.144(N.D.∼0.44)], and Misgurnus mizolepis(1.68)>Hypomesus olidus(1.44)>Tapes philippinarum(1.38)>Anguilla japonica(1.35). Also, Tegillarca granosa(1.85) was the most Cd contents among shellfishes[0.288(N.D.∼1.85)].
