Özet

This study examined the level of metals, metalloids, non-metals, and mineral elements in the edible parts as well as in other organs of Rapana venosa, obtained from the Eastern Black Sea. The concentrations of Ba, Ca, Cr, Co, Cu, Fe, Ni, P, Mo, Se, Pb, Sr, and Zn within the organs showed significant variations. The operculum possessed significantly higher Ba, Co, Cr, Fe, Mo, Pb, and Se, while the hepatopancreas had higher Ca, Cu, Ni, P, Sr, and Zn concentrations. The target hazard quotient (THQ) and total THQ were < 1, indicating no potential health risk to consumers.
