title: Comparative characteristics of heavy metals content in the various types of mollusks’ tissues in Gomel water bodies and its adjacent territories
abstract: The content and accumulation of some heavy metals in the soft tissues and shells of gastropods (Gastropoda: Limnaea stagnalis L. and Viviparus viviparus L.) and bivalves (Anodonta cygnea L. and Unio pictorum L.) were studied. Based on observations, a higher content of copper, chromium and nickel in the soft tissues of gastropods has been established. In chromium, the maximum content is typical for the tissues of the pond snail, while in the viviparus it is minimal. The content of lead, zinc, man
