主　　题：Heavy metal Fish Sardinella sindensis Balochistan coast Pakistan 

摘      要：Objective:To determine Fe,Cu,Zn,Pb and Cd concentrations in muscle of sind sardinella[Sardinella sindensis(***)]from Balochistan coast,***:*** were collected from Balochistan coast,Pakistan,at autumn inter monsoon,north east monsoon,spring inter monsoon and south west monsoon during October 2005-September *** samples were analyzed for Fe,Cu,Zn,Pb and Cd by AAnalyst 700 flame atomic absorption ***:Generally,*** caught from Balochistan coast showed the accumulation level of Fe[(16.88±5.60)μg/g],Cu[(2.74±1.89)μg/g],Cd[(0.29±0.25)μg/g],Zn[(4.29±2.31)μg/g]and Pb[(0.24±0.24)μg/g]in the muscle ***:The metal concentrations in fish from Balochistan coast observed in this study were lower than the limit ***,all metal accumulations in *** have to be monitored continuously,especially in this region.
