The aim of this study was to assess the water quality of the Gradac, near the town of Valjevo, on an analysis of DNA damage in different tissues of trout (Salmo trutta L. 1758) and barbel (Barbus meridionalis R. 1827). For the detection of genotoxic potential of alkaline comet assay were used three types of tissue, blood liver and gills. Among the parameters available the Olive tail moment was chosen as the most reliable to estimate the damage to DNA molecules. In all tested tissues was detected damage in DNA molecule, where the gills showed the highest sensitivity.
