Determination of Total Mercury in Muscle, Intestines, Liver and Kidney Tissues of Cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo), Great Crested Gerber (Podiceps cristatus) and Eurasian Buzzard (Buteo buteo)
Original language description
The total mercury concentrations in four tissues (muscle, intestines, liver and kidney) of aquatic birds (cormorant -- Phalacrocorax carbo and great crested grebe -- Podiceps cristatus) and Eurasian buzzard (Buteo buteo) were determined by cold vapour atomic absorption spectrometry (CV-AAS) using an Advanced Mercury Analyser AMA 254. The results of the direct CV-AAS analyses of homogenised solid samples were in very good agreement with those obtained by AFS and CV-AAS analyses after acid digestion. Mercury concentrations in the tested tissues of adult populations of great crested grebe and cormorant were nearly twice as high as in the Eurasian buzzard. Significantly higher mercury concentrations were found in the liver and kidney of the cormorant (7-times and 2-times, resp.) compared to great crested grebe. The highest mercury concentration (39.2 mg/kg DM)was found in liver of adult population of cormorant while the content of mercury in younger cormorants was approx. 6-times lower (5.

Stanovení rtuti ve svalovině, střevech, játrech a ledvinách u ptáků
Czech description
Byly zjištovány obsahy čtyř druhů rtuti, methyl-rtuť (MeHg), anorganická rtuť (Inorg.Hg), etyl-rtuť (EtHg), fenyl-rtuť (PhHg) a celková rtuť (T-Hg) u čtyř vybraných tkaniní (sval, střeva, játra a ledvina) tří ptáka druhy. Významně vyšší obsahy rtuťi bylynalezeny v játrech a ledvině kormorána (7-krát a 2-krát) ve srovnání s potápkou.
