Summary
Aquatic organisms are capable of concentrating toxic elements within their tissues. In the study, plankton samples have been evaluated for their bioavailability as biomonitors of Po and Pb in Aegean Sea. The concentrations of Po and Pb in plankton samples collected in the period of 2004 -2005 have been presented. The samples were collected from four distinct regions (Aliaga, Nemrut, Fo ca and Izmir Bay). The concentrations of Po and Pb in plankton samples were determined using alpha
