Seaweed is a natural treasure that can be intensely evaluated for therapeutic purposes. It is well known that the seaweed is an indicator of accumulation of heavy metals. In order to be used for medical purposes, kelp has to meet certain conditions concerning the content of heavy metals accumulated. In this work are presented the results of the analyzes concerning the content of heavy metals in two algae: Cystoseira barbata and Ceramium rubrum.
