- •
Arabian Gulf seafood contains relatively high concentrations of total arsenic.
- •
Non-toxic arsenobetaine forms the major fraction (~ 70%) of total arsenic.
- •
Toxic inorganic arsenic presents at only low levels (< 1.84% of total As).
- •
No significant relationship between the tissue concentrations of total As and iAs.
- •
Health risk assessment shows non-negligible risks and the potential for hazards.
