Explanation:

Biodetritus is biological detritus, organic sediment, organic matter that sedimented on the bottom of model aquatic ecosystems. The origin of the biological detritus was aquatic organisms in these model systems. The organisms were 2 species of mollusks and 1 species of aquatic higher plants. The paper demonstrated that the organic matter was the storage  (place of accumulation) of some chemical elements. Some of the elements can pollute water.

It is the first time that in the detritus of biological origin that formed over a 7-month period in water microcosms with aquatic mollusks (Viviparus viviparus, Unio pictorum), and aquatic plants (Ceratophyllum demersum), a number of chemical elements were measured. This is the first study to determine concentrations of these chemical elements in biological detritus, including uranium, gold, and rare earth elements. Neutron activation analysis showed that the elements' concentrations decrease in the following order: Ca > Zn > Ba > Br > Ce > Se > Nd > La > U > Hf > Sb > Th > Sm > S > Cs > Au. The data obtained contribute to understanding of the polyfunctional role of aquatic organisms in aquatic ecosystems, and the important role of biological detritus produced by the organisms, especially in biogeochemistry of water systems.
