Abstract

It was previously reported that stable and radioactive zinc concentration in water changed during the tracer experiment for the uptake of zinc in marine organisms. In the present study, the cause of the change in zinc and zinc-65 concentration in water was investigated, and the followings were revealed: (1) zinc in dust contaminates the rearing water for tracer experiment, (2) the presence of organisms changes the zinc content in water, and (3) the reduction in zinc-65 concentration in water corresponds to the uptake amount by shellfish.
