Abstract

To measure the heavy metal contents of marine invertebrates, we collected 239 individuals representing 52 species from the eastern (Pohang), western (Gunsan), and southern (Tongyeong) coasts of Korea: 34 species of molluscan shellfish (Gastropoda and Bivalvia), 6 species of Cephalopoda, 8 species of Crustacea, and 4 other species. The mean levels of the heavy metals in the samples taken from the edible portion of each Gastropoda were high in the order of Zn ($21.471\;{\mu}g/g$), Cu ($4.115\;{\mu}g/g$), Mn ($0.868\;{\mu}g/g$), Ni ($0.254\;{\mu}g/g$), Pb ($0.238\;{\mu}g/g$), Cd ($0.154\;{\mu}g/g$), and Cr ($0.110\;{\mu}g/g$). The heavy metals in the Bivalvia were high in the order of Zn ($35.655\;{\mu}g/g$), Mn ($5.500\;{\mu}g/g$), Cu ($3.129\;{\mu}g/g$), Cd ($0.423\;{\mu}g/g$), Ni ($0.402\;{\mu}g/g$), Cr ($0.233\;{\mu}g/g$), and Pb ($0.232\;{\mu}g/g$). The heavy metals in the Cephalopoda were high in the order of Zn ($18.380\;{\mu}g/g$), Cu ($3.594\;{\mu}g/g$), Mn ($0.630\;{\mu}g/g$), Cr ($0.150\;{\mu}g/g$), Pb ($0.068\;{\mu}g/g$), Cd ($0.034\;{\mu}g/g$), and Ni ($0.030\;{\mu}g/g$). The heavy metals in the Crustacea were high in the order of Zn ($25.333\;{\mu}g$/g), Cu ($9.042\;{\mu}g/g$), Mn ($0.659\;{\mu}g/g$), Cr ($0.592\;{\mu}g/g$), Cd ($0.207\;{\mu}g/g$), Pb ($0.126\;{\mu}g/g$), and Ni ($0.094\;{\mu}g/g$). Therefore, the mean levels of the harmful heavy metals (Cd and Pb) in marine invertebrates were high in the order of Bivalvia>Crustacea=Gastropoda>Cephalopoda. The average daily intakes of the heavy metals from the fisheries products were as follows: Cd ($6.88\;{\mu}g$), Cr ($19.13\;{\mu}g$), Cu ($137.02\;{\mu}g$), Mn ($156.13\;{\mu}g$), Ni ($11.39\;{\mu}g$), Pb ($7.01\;{\mu}g$) and Zn ($1,025.94\;{\mu}g$). The average weekly intakes of Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn from the fisheries products were 11.47%, 0.46%, 3.27% and 1.71% respectively, as compared with PTWI (Provisional Tolerable Weekly Intakes) established by FAO/WHO Expert Committee for Food Safety Evaluation.

본 연구에서는 2003년부터 2004년까지 동해, 서해 및 남해 연안에서 채취하여 위판장에서 판매되고 있는 연안산 패류(복족류 및 이매패류), 두족류, 갑각류 등의 해산무척추동물 52종 239개체에 대한 중금속 함량을 분석하였다. 인증표준물질(certified reference material, CRM)을 사용한 각 중금속에 대한 회수율은 평균 86.3~104.6%로 Codex에서 요구하고 있는 수준에 부합하였다. 우리나라 연안산 복족류의 중금속 함량은 아연 $21.471{\pm}10.794\;{\mu}g/g$, 구리 $4.115{\pm}2.565\;{\mu}g/g$, 망간 $0.868{\pm}0.593\;{\mu}g/g$, 니켈 $0.254{\pm}0.418\;{\mu}g/g$, 납 $0.238{\pm}0.220\;{\mu}g/g$, 카드뮴 $0.154{\pm}0.170\;{\mu}g/g$, 크롬 $0.110{\pm}0.082\;{\mu}g/g$ 순이었고, 이매패류의 경우는 아연 $35.655{\pm}46.978\;{\mu}g$, 망간 $5.500{\pm}9.943\;{\mu}g$, 구리 $3.129{\pm}5.979\;{\mu}g$, 카드뮴 $0.423{\pm}0.345\;{\mu}g/g$, 니켈 $0.402{\pm}0.379\;{\mu}g$, 크롬 $0.233{\pm}0.234\;{\mu}g/g$, 납 $0.232{\pm}0.216\;{\mu}g/g$ 순이었다. 또한, 두족류는 아연 $18.380{\pm}5.479\;{\mu}g/g$으로 가장 높았으며, 다음으로 구리 $3.594{\pm}1.823\;{\mu}g/g$, 망간 $0.630{\mu}g0.630\;{\mu}g$, 크롬 $0.150\;{\pm}0.115\;{\mu}g/g$, 납 $0.068{\pm}0.066\;{\mu}g/g$, 카드뮴 $0.034\;{\mu}g{\pm}0.046\;{\mu}g/g$, 니켈 $0.030{\pm}0.047\;{\mu}g/g$ 순이었고, 갑각류의 경우 아연 $25.333{\pm}9.608\;{\mu}g/g$으로 가장 높았으며, 다음으로 구리 $9.042{\pm}8.895\;{\mu}g/g$, 망간 $0.659{\pm}0.412\;{\mu}g/g$, 크롬 $0.592{\pm}2.172\;{\mu}g/g$, 카드뮴 $0.207{\pm}0.204\;{\mu}g/g$, 납 $0.126{\pm}0.094\;{\mu}g/g$, 니켈 $0.094{\pm}0.110\;{\mu}g/g$ 순이었다. 따라서 카드뮴, 납 등 유해 중금속의 함량은 이매패류>갑각류=복족류>두족류 순으로 높게 함유하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 우리나라 국민의 수산물을 통한 중금속의 1일 섭취량은 각각 카드뮴 $6.88\;{\mu}g$, 크롬 $19.13\;{\mu}g$, 구리 $137.02\;{\mu}g$, 망간 $156.13\;{\mu}g$, 니켈 $11.39\;{\mu}g$, 납 $7.01\;{\mu}g$ 및 아연 $1,025.94 {\mu}g$이었다. 이는 FAO/WHO에서 설정한 잠정주간섭취허용량인 PTWI와 비교해 보면, 카드뮴의 11.47%, 구리의 0.46%, 납의 3.27% 및 아연의 1.71% 수준이었다. 따라서 우리국민이 수산물을 통하여 섭취하는 카드뮴 및 납 등 유해 중금속 함량은 매우 안전한 수준인 것으로 판단된다.
