Abstract

In the conditions of laboratory aquatic microcosms it was the first time when data on Au and some other elements concentrations in detritus formed by widely spread aquatic organism species (shellfish Viviparus viviparus, Unio pictorum and macrophytes Ceratophyllum demersum) have been obtained. Measurements have been done by the method of neutron-activating analysis. These experiments have demonstrated once again a significant role of biogenic detritus in conjugation of hydro/biological and geo/chemical processes in aquatic systems. New results add to the previous data on chemical elements content in ecosystems components including aquatic ecosystems. The obtained data can be used in development of the monitoring scientific grounds as well remediation, rehabilitation and restoration of water bodies.
