Preliminary studies on bone fluoride content in the Arctic charr, Salvelinus alpinus (L.) from the Hornsund region

Abstract

Fluoride contents were determined in vertebrae of the Arctic charr in the Hornsund region, using the zirconium-eriochrome cyanine technique. The fluoride content were found to range within 21.5-150.6 µgּg-1, i.e. within a natural range.
