Abstract:: The kidneys of fish from five different regions of Styrian waters were investigated for their content of cadmium, lead, copper and zinc. 72.6% of fish demonstrated a zinc content below 130 ppm, cadmium content lay with 69% under 750 ppb. Lead concentrations were slightly higher, however values above 1 ppm were demonstrated only in 27.4% of cases. The copper content in the kidneys of fish was significantly higher; revealing in 28.8% a copper content of above 8 ppm.
