The aims of the present study were to investigate Pb and Cd levels in tissues of wild boar (Sus scrofa) from the Sierra Nevada Natural Space (SNNS) (southern Spain). Heavy metal concentrations in livers, kidneys and bones from 111 animals were determined by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). Bones and kidneys were the most Pb- and Cd-contaminated tissues, respectively; Cd concentrations were 5.6 times higher in kidneys than in livers. This is the first biomonitoring study of these pollutants in wild boar tissues in the SNNS, and findings indicate that this population is chronically exposed to these heavy metals. The detected Pb and Cd concentrations were lower than those found in many studies performed in Europe on the same species.
本研究的目的是调查内华达自然空间（SNNS）（西班牙南部）野猪组织中的 Pb 和 Cd 水平。通过电感耦合等离子体发射光谱法（ICP-OES）测定了 111 只动物肝脏、肾脏和骨骼中的重金属浓度。骨骼和肾脏是 Pb 和 Cd 污染最严重的组织，分别为；肾脏中的 Cd 浓度比肝脏高 5.6 倍。这是 SNNS 中对这些污染物在野猪组织中的首次生物监测研究，研究结果表明，该种群长期受到这些重金属的影响。检测到的 Pb 和 Cd 浓度低于在欧洲对同一物种进行的许多研究中发现的浓度。
