Abstract:
An experiment was conducted to assess the Lifetime Average Daily Dose (LADD) by Cd (Cadmium) in people of Kolkata due to the consumption of rohu (Labeo rohita). Samples were collected from three fish markets of Kolkata, cadmium concentration was determined and LADD was estimated. The maximum LADD of Cd was 0.556µg/kg/wk in female and 0.488µg/kg/wk in male respectively. It was lower than the reference dose and thus the fish can be declared safe for consumption.
