This review presents literature data on the presence of heavy metals in commercial fish species from the Amur River basin. The results of the research show that the trace element composition of fish differs in different parts of the Amur basin; it can exceed permissible concentrations for standardized elements. However, a lack of actual fresh data on heavy metal content of hydrobionts makes it difficult to assess the ecological state of the Amur River or analyze the risks to public health.
