This study investigated 12 trace elements in paired green turtle (Chelonia mydas) eggshell
composites and coral sand samples to examine within-habitat heavy metal pollution from 40 …

Chemical pollutants present a substantial threat to the survival of the green turtle (Chelonia
mydas). In this study, the concentrations of 12 trace elements (TEs) in seawater, sediments …

Concentrations of 22 trace elements were determined in green turtle (Chelonia mydas) eggs
collected from Hong Kong. Concentrations of selenium, lead and nickel in these eggs were …

The green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas) has been a species of global concern for decades. In
this study, heavy metals (mercury: Hg; Cadmium: Cd; Lead: Pb; Copper: Cu; and Zinc: Zn) …

This study investigates the concentration of heavy metals in fresh and un-hatched green
turtle eggs from two major nesting beaches in (Ma'Daerah, Terengganu and Cherating …

Concentrations of eight elements were measured in Chelonia mydas and Lepidochelys
olivacea eggs collected along the Pacific coast of Panama. Manganese (Mn), iron (Fe) …

Heavy metals in the muscles, livers, kidneys and eggs of loggerhead turtles and green sea
turtles were analysed to develop a non-killing method of heavy metal monitoring using eggs …

Background Anthropogenic sources can lead to the accumulation of heavy metals in marine
organisms through ingestion, absorption, or inhalation. For sea turtle embryos, heavy metals …

Background Persistent organic pollutants (POPs)—such as organochlorine pesticides
(OCPs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) …

This study was undertaken to provide data on the levels of trace elements in the tissues of
green turtle nesting along the South China coast. The specimens analysed were 4 adults …
