The contents of 24 elements were determined in seven species of macroalgae collected in Ceara-Brazil, in the rainy and dry seasons of 2022. The samples were digested, and the analytes were quantified by ICP-OES and Hg by direct analyzer. The CRM CD-200 was analyzed for accuracy and obtained recoveries were higher than 95 %. The seaweed species have different inorganic element profiles with predominant elements being: Ca, K, Na, Mg and P. The Sargassum vulgare species stood out for its Hg and As contents (1.479 ± 0.005 mg kg and 172 ± 6 mg kg, both in the rainy seasons). Ulva lactuca attracted attention for its high concentration of V (46.4 ± 3.4 mg kg, rainy season). In general, the elemental content levels in the macroalgae samples were higher in the rainy season. Long-term studies to comprehend the effect of seasonality on the elemental composition of seaweed must be carried out.
于 2022 年雨季和旱季,在巴西塞阿拉采集了七种大型藻类并对其 24 种元素的含量进行了测定。采用消解的方法对样品进行处理,利用电感耦合等离子体发射光谱仪(ICP-OES)和直接进样分析汞(Hg)的含量。对 CRM CD-200 进行了准确度分析,获得的回收率均高于 95%。不同藻类的无机元素含量谱不同,优势元素为 Ca、K、Na、Mg 和 P。在雨季,皱波角叉菜(Sargassum vulgare)的 Hg 和 As 含量(分别为 1.479±0.005mg/kg 和 172±6mg/kg)较高。而在雨季,绿球藻(Ulva lactuca)因其高浓度的 V(46.4±3.4mg/kg)而受到关注。总体而言,大型藻类样品中元素含量在雨季较高。必须进行长期研究以了解季节性对海藻元素组成的影响。
