Description The outcomes from measurements of amount of selected elements in the fish scales of common carp are presented. Concentrations in the scales were identified and differences between storage of heavy metals in exposed and covered part of scale were studied. The spatial distribution of elements on the fish scale's surface layer was measured by Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS). The average amount of elements in the dissolved scales was quantified by ICP-MS. The fine structure of fish scales was visualized by phase-contrast Synchrotron radiation (SR) microradiography.
