Abstract
⺠We estimated the risk to humans trough ingestion of sea bass contaminated with Hg. ⺠Total and organic Hg in muscle exceeded weekly and daily safety limits. ⺠There's risk through ingestion although Hg was below the maximum limit set by EU. ⺠The ingestion of European sea bass contaminated with Hg poses risk to human health. ⺠Other organs rather than muscle should be considered as edible tissue.
