Abstract
Analysis of metals, including the group of heavy metals, in the muscular tissue of fish (Leuciscus idus, Rutilus rutilus, Perca fluviatilis, Sander lucioperca) from the Novosibirsk reservoir and the Ob river near the dam of the Novosibirsk water-power station during the year 2009 is presented. The revealed interspecies and interpopulation (biotope) distinctions in metal concentrations are most probably connected with the differences in the food of fish. The level of metal concentrations in the muscular tissue of fish does not exceed the standard level accepted in Russia for fresh fish products.
