The present research was carried out in winter 2010 and summer 2011 for the purpose of determining the concentration amount of the heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Ni) in liver and muscle tissues of the “Scomberomorus guttatus” in Hormozgan province water, (Bandar Abbas) shore. In every season, 20 samples were selected by simple random method. The samples were tested biologically. Afterwards, microwave digestion method was used to extract metals from the muscles and liver of the fishes. Lead, Nickel and Cadmium content were determined by Varian atomic furnace equipment, GTA 100 model. Average concentrations of Lead, Cadmium and Nickel in liver were determined to be 0.4652±0.03897, 0.3536±0.03552 and 0.5010±0.06972 and in muscle 0.2934±0.02661, 0.0375±0.00319 and 0.2667±0.04930 µg/g-1 on dry weight respectively. Results indicated, using Kruskal-wallis test, that there is a significant different between the content of the three metals in liver tissue and muscle of fishes (P<0.05).
