Abstract

Heavy metals (iron, copper, and zinc) were quantified in purple crab (Platyxanthus orbignyi) tissues collected in winter (September 2021), spring (November 2021), and summer (March 2022) at three beaches (Tres Hermanas, Fundición, and El Diablo) in Ilo Harbour (Moquegua), South Peru. The rank order of heavy metal concentrations in purple crab tissues and sediments was similar; iron (Fe) was followed by Copper (Cu), and this last one was followed by Zinc (Zn). The heavy metal concentrations in tissue crabs from the three beaches differed from each other spatially and seasonally. In addition, Fundición Beach was the zone with the highest concentration of those three metals during the summer.

秘鲁南部紫蟹（Platyxanthus orbignyi）组织中的重金属含量

在南秘鲁伊洛港（莫凯瓜省）的三个海滩（Tres Hermanas、Fundición和El Diablo）采集了紫蟹（Platyxanthus orbignyi）组织，分别于冬季（2021年9月）、春季（2021年11月）和夏季（2022年3月）进行了重金属（铁、铜和锌）定量分析。紫色螃蟹组织和沉积物中重金属浓度的排列顺序相似：铁（Fe）紧随铜（Cu）之后，锌（Zn）紧随其后。三个海滩的紫蟹组织中的重金属浓度在空间和季节上都存在差异。此外，在夏季，Fundición 海滩是这三种金属含量最高的区域。
