Abstract
The purpose of the study was to determine the influence of environment on metals concentration: lead, cadmium, copper and zinc, in tissues of roes from Zgorzelec- Bogatynia region. The study was made in 2003-2004. Liver, kidneys, muscles, lungs and hair samples were taken and mineralized dry a muffle furnace at 4500 C. metals were determined directly in mineralizate by the ICP-AES method on the Varian spectrophotometer. Results of the studies show on significant contamination of lead compounds in Bogatynia region. Confirmation of these are higher levels of analyzed metal in tissues of roes coming from this region. Higher levels of copper in muscular tissue as well as zinc in kidneys and lungs animals coming from region of Piaseczno, show on existence of local, not controlled sources of this metal emission. For that reason it is necessary to control the content of metals in hunting animals tissues not only in industrial regions, but also considered as ecologically safe.
