“…Among environmental pollutants, metals are of particular concern; due to their potential toxic effect and ability to bioaccumulate in aquatic compartment (Censi et al 2006). Trace metals are naturally and lowly present in seawater but their concentration levels have increased due to anthropogenic pollutants (Kargın et al 2001). Fish and other aquatic organisms are persistently exposed to chemicals in polluted and contaminated waters (Burger et al 2002) and are exposed to accumulate considerable amounts of toxic elements from their living environment (Suhaimi et al 2005).…”

“…Cadmium concentrations found in the viscera are below those observed in gills and hepatopancreas of different shrimp species surveyed in other regions (Páez-Osuna and Ruíz-Fernández, 1995b;Páez-Osuna and Tron-Mayen, 1996;Pourang and Amini, 2001;Kargin et al, 2001;Pourang et al, 2004).…”

“…Several studies have reported the concentration and toxicity of cadmium in shrimps (Páez-Osuna and Ruíz-Fernández, 1995b;Páez-Osuna and Tron-Mayen, 1996;Vanegas et al, 1997;Soegianto et al, 1999;Pourang and Amini, 2001;Kargin et al, 2001;Pourang et al, 2004;Wu and Chen, 2004;Seebaugh et al, 2005;Santos et al, 2013). The Cd concentrations in the shrimp body depend mainly on their levels in the environment since this element is not essential in the biochemical and physiological processes of this animal (Ruelas-Inzunza and Páez-Osuna, 2004).…”

“…Peerzada, Nojok, & Lee (1992), reported that Cd was found in low concentrations in muscle and up to 18 times more in hepatopancreas and digestive gland of decapod crustaceans. Similarly, Kargin et al (2001) noted the hepatopancreas is the main storage and detoxification site of heavy metals in crustaceans.…”

“…These concentrations are lower than those reported by Palomarez, Castañeda, Lango, and Landeros (2009) for F. aztecus 0.119 µg g -1 , suggesting low bioavailability of Pb. According to Kargin, Donmez, and Cogun (2001) recorded high levels of Pb in crustaceans when there were high levels of metals in sediments.…”
