摘要: In the last two decades (1990–2008), as part of a comprehensive monitoring eco-system, hares were collected in vicinity mercury contaminated natural gas production and treatment plant Molve, Croatia. Their organs (muscle, liver, kidney brain) analyzed for total concentration by cold vapor AAS. The range median values (wet weight) 0.001–0.005, 0.007–0.045, 0.022–0.126 0.0006–0.015 μg/g muscle, brain, respectively. results measurements during period twenty years demonstrate small but constant decline values. Comparing obtained this study with published available data literature on hare's tissue it can be concluded that area investigated research belongs to low region. Nevertheless, further eco-monitoring various ar...
