Pb: lead;
Hg: mercury; Cr: chromium; Ni: nickel; Cd: cadmium C = head / cephalotorax; AS I-II: abdominal segment I-II; AS III-IV: abdominal segment III-IV.

•Cd levels are 2-3X higher in cephalothorax (C) than abdominal segments (AS) of L. vannamei from Ecuador and Honduras, and Penaeus monodon of Philippines, and may impact health of people that consume them.
