In the present paper, we report on the use of adsorptive transfer stripping technique in connection with chronopotentiometric stripping analysis for metallothionein (MT) determination and of differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry for lead detection in tissues (muscles, gonads, liver and spleen) of wild perch (n=6) from the Svratka River in Brno, Czech Republic. The highest MT concentrations were detected in spleen and liver (100-350 ng MT per gram of fresh weight). We assume that the content of MT determined in perch tissues is probably related with the age of the fish and therefore with their exposition to heavy metals naturally occurring in the Svratka River. MT concentrations were very well correlated with Pb concentrations.
