Popis: This work provides results of a continued study of selected metal concentrations from oysters from Southwest Louisiana. Results were compared to previous studies in 2007 and 2009 and found to be comparable for three metals (Cd, Cr, and Pb) lower for two metals (Cu and Zn) and slightly higher for one metal (Fe). Continued improvement (lower concentrations) was found in this study compared to 2007 for Pd and Cd indicating that potential high concentrations from 2005 Hurricane Rita were significantly reduced.
