Trends in mercury concentrations and comparison to EU and WHO limits. Examples of concentration trends for White seabream (a), European pilchard (b), Atlantic bluefin tuna (c) and Swordfish (d). EC and WHO established mercury consumption general guideline level of 0.5 mg kg−1 and 1.0 mg kg−1, respectively. Concentrations include only HgT in tissues (see Table 1 for specification).
