Abstract
⺠We studied accumulation and magnification of trace elements in Antarctic penguin chicks. ⺠We evaluated their bioavailability in rookeries during the breeding season. ⺠Common sources and elimination routes could exist for several elements. ⺠Levels of some elements were similar to those found in seabirds from other regions.
