R Remarks k Bodboron and Pirit caught from September to December, 2010 are safe for human consumption

Bodboron and Pirit from General Santos City are proven safe for human consumption since it do not have any traces of lead concentration as revealed laboratory analyses.

Based on the foregoing findings of the study, it can be concluded that: €Bodboron

€

Samples were safe for human consumption because it did not exceed the standard set by Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) and World Health Organization (WHO)
