AB  - Heavy metals have high potential to enter and accumulate in food chains and therefore 
are considered as critical contaminants of aquatic ecosystems (Erdoğrul and Erbilir 2007). 
Given that fish are situated at the top of the food chain they can accumulate large amount of 
heavy metals (Yilmaz et al. 2007). Heavy metals are taken up through different organs of 
the fish because of the affinity between them, and then are concentrated at different levels 
in different organs of the body (Bervoets et al. 2001). Accumulation of heavy metals in 
muscle tissues was the most studied, given that muscle tissue is the main fish part that is 
consumed by humans (Begum et al. 2013; Storelli et al. 2006). However, it is important to 
analyze other tissues since muscles are not always a good indicator of the whole fish body 
contamination (Has-Schön et al. 2006).
The Danube River is the second longest river in Europe and runs through Serbia at a length 
of 587.4 km. The biggest industrial capacities are largely located on the Danube river banks - 
Belgrade, Novi Sad, Pančevo and Smederevo (Petrović 2015). The main problem is that none 
of them has any kind of system for treating municipal wastewaters (Veljković 2005). 
Within this study, published articles regarding heavy metal accumulation in different 
tissues of fish in the Danube in Serbia were analyzed in order to evaluate which species, 
tissues and elements were the most represented in the analyses. The main aim was to assess 
present practices in research of heavy metal pollution in this region, as well as to identify 
key gaps regarding the particular river sections, types of pollutants, tissues, and trophic 
and functional groups of fish communities that were inadequately represented in research.
