According to the FDA's testing data, canned albacore tuna has a higher average mercury concentration (0.350 ppm) than canned light tuna (0.126 ppm). This higher level of mercury is a result of albacore being a larger, older, and more predatory fish compared to the smaller skipjack tuna used in most canned light products.
