Accumulation of Heavy Metals in Crayfish and Fish from Selected Czech Reservoirs

Original language description

To evaluate the accumulation of aluminium, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, mercury, nickel, and zinc in crayfish and fish organ tissues, specimens from three drinking water reservoirs (Boskovice, Landstejn, and Nova Rise) and one contaminated site (Darkovske more) in the Czech Republic were examined. Crayfish hepatopancreas was confirmed to be the primary accumulating site for the majority of metals (Cu } Zn } Ni } Cd } Cr), while Hg and Cr were concentrated in abdominal muscle, and Al and Pb were concentrated in gill. Metals found in Nova Rise specimens included Cu } Zn } Ni and those found in Boskovice included Zn } Hg } Cr. Cd concentrations were observed only in Landstejn specimens, while contaminated Darkovske more specimens showed the highest levels of accumulation (Cu } Al } Zn } Pb). The majority of evaluated metals were found in higher concentrations in crayfish: Cu } Al } Zn } Ni } Cr } Cd } Pb, with Hg being the only metal accumulating higher in fish. Due to accumulation si
