Metal pollution in Laizhou Bay along the Bohai Sea in China has been posing a risk on fishery species and hence may affect seafood quality. In this work, shrimps Fenneropenaeus chinensis were sampled from three sites, namely, a reference (site 6334) and two metal-polluted (sites 6262 and 7262) sites, located in Laizhou Bay. The metal concentrations in shrimp muscle tissues were tested using the ICP-MS technique. The Cr and Cu concentrations were the highest in the shrimp samples from site 7262, exceeding the national seafood safety standard Ⅱ, and the As concentration was much higher than the national seafood safety standard Ⅲ. NMR-based metabolomics indicated that metal pollution induced oxidative and immune stresses, damaged the muscular structure, and disrupted energy metabolism in shrimps at sites 6262 and 7262, in particular disturbed osmotic regulation in shrimps at site 7262. Glycine and serine could serve as biomarkers for Cd in F. chinensis.
