“…The concentration of vanadium in the intestine of the most vanadium-rich ascidian Ascidia gemmata was reported to be 11.9 mM by Samino (2012). Sea cucumbers have been reported to be vanadium accumulators, and the average values of 1.09 µg g −1 of total vanadium and 0.79 µg g −1 of organic vanadium were obtained in the intestine and blood of sea cucumbers (Liu, Zhou, et al, 2015). In China, there are about 20 species of edible sea cucumbers that have long been considered as a traditional medicine and tonic food.…”

“…The biological role of Ni and V in marine animals remains unclear, and the ability of crustaceans to regulate Ni concentrations appears species specific [ 24 , 119 – 124 ]. Marine animals can integrate Ni and V from solution [ 120 , 125 , 126 ] and their diet [ 122 , 126 , 127 ], so prawn Ni and V concentrations may be a combination of various sources, resulting in less predictable accumulation and distribution patterns. In contrast, Co is an essential metabolic element [ 128 ].…”

A benthic bioindicator reveals distinct land and ocean–Based influences in an urbanized coastal embayment

Biogeochemical maps of coastal regions can be used to identify important influences and inputs that define nearshore environments and biota. Biogeochemical tracers can also track animal movement and their diet, monitor human coastal development, and evaluate the condition of habitats and species. However, the beneficial applications of spatial biogeochemical analysis are hindered by a limited understanding of how tracer distribution is affected by different land and ocean–based influences. To help address these knowledge gaps, we determined the spatial trends of three stable isotopes (δ13C-carbon, δ15N-nitrogen, δ34S-sulfur) and 13 major and trace elements in an urbanized coastal embayment (Moreton Bay, Australia), as incorporated into the muscle tissue of a marine consumer, the eastern king prawn Melicertus plebejus. Results were used to identify unique biochemical regions within the bay and to discuss how spatial patterns in tracers could be used to indicate the relative importance of catchment, urban and offshore drivers in coastal bays. Discriminant analysis identified seven biogeochemical regions that were likely distinguished by variation in catchment, urban, and offshore input, and habitat type. δ13C and δ15N patterns suggested nearshore areas could be distinguished by increased sediment resuspension and higher wastewater inputs from catchments. High inshore lead (Pb) and copper (Cu) concentrations were likely the result of urban input. Arsenic (As) and cadmium (Cd) increased further from shore. This trend implied oceanic influences were a significant control over As and Cd bioavailability. Cobalt (Co) and rare earths were also used to differentiate some nearshore areas, but incongruent distribution patterns in Co suggested it may be less reliable. Overall, results indicated that δ15N, δ13C, Cd, Cu, Pb and rare earth elements were the most reliable tracers to differentiate nearshore and offshore environments, and catchment–based effects. We encourage future studies to consider using a similar multivariate approach in coastal spatial analysis, and to include unrelated tracers that reflect distinct coastal influences.

“…1 g of dried and sieved sediment was digested in 2 mL of hydrofluoric acid and perchloric acid using a WX-6000microwave digestion instrument (China, 2016) and then diluted to a final volume of 25 mL with deionized water. V and Ni content in both matrixes were then measured by atomic absorption spectrometry [26].…”

As one of the 20th most abundant elements, vanadium (V) is widely distributed in the earth's crust [1]. It is an essential trace element due to its significant role in environmental and physiological systems involving participation in different enzymatic reactions as an inhibitor and cofactor. V can be found in trace amounts in foods, soils, sediments, natural waters, air, plants, etc. [2-5], and is used widely in industrial processes. With the development of industry, V content in environment is getting higher and higher. At high concentrations V has a toxic effect on the environment and health. V could damage the biota and consequently damage humans through processes of bioaccumulation and biomagnification [6-8]. V and its compounds seemed as one kind of pollution in the environment. In the petroleum and derivatives processing industry, control of V is
