Metal content in muscular tissue of commercially important fish from Novosibirsk reservoir and near dam on Ob’ River

  • Published:
Contemporary Problems of Ecology Aims and scope

Abstract

The 2009 study on the content and accumulation of some metals, including heavy ones, in the muscular tissue of fish (perch, sander, bream, roach, and ide) from the Novosibirsk reservoir and around the HPP dam on the Ob’ river are presented. Interspecies and interpopulation (biotopical) differences found in the metal concentration are most likely caused by peculiarities in the feeding habits of fish. This coincides with data on the accumulation of metal in fish from other Siberian water bodies and bony fish as a whole. The metal content in the muscular tissue of fish does not exceed that accepted for fresh fish products in Russia.
