Seasonal changes of heavy metal concentrations in the crustacean Callinectes sapidus were determined by the aid of a Buck scientific Accusys 211 Atomic Absorption spectrophotometer in 2020. The heavy metals (copper, cobalt, chromium, iron, manganese, cadmium, lead, nickel, and zinc) were investigated in the tissues of the blue crab Callinectes sapidus collected from the Mediterranean Sea coast of Port Said, Egypt. Most estimated heavy metals in hepatopancreas, gill, and muscle tissues are below the permitted level, indicating that blue crab is safe to eat.
