Notes:
Analysis of manganese and zinc concentrations in the scales of salmon and trout from a number of sites showed significant dependence of the levels of these metals in the scales on the levels in the environment. There is some evidence to suggest that in trout scales there is a minimum concentration of zinc above which there is a direct proportion between environmental and scale concentration. It is also possible that the response of trout to environmental zinc differs from that of salmon.
