Lead and cadmium levels in coastal benthic algae (seaweeds) of Tenerife, Canary Islands
AbstractLead and cadmium levels of some species of brown-algae (Phaeophyta) from the mesolittoral (intertidal area) of the Island of Tenerife (central–eastern Atlantic) were determined by Atomic Absorption Spectrometry. The quality control was carried out using a standard “CRM 279 Ulva lactuca”. The mean, minimum and maximum concentrations were 11.21, 2.090 and 81.795 μg/g/dw; and 1.13, 0.190 and 5.130 μg/g/dw for lead and cadmium, respectively. The fact that samples registering the highest cadmium concentrations were the same as those which showed the highest lead level corresponding to a sampling station nearby an urban water outlet could be relevant.
