Description
We present here preliminary results of an analysis of the iron abundance
in the ionized gas of three planetary nebulae and one H II region of the
Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). These results are compared with the ones
we obtain for a sample of Galactic and extragalactic nebulae. We find
that the amounts of iron depletion into dust grains in LMC nebulae are
similar to those found in Galactic nebulae. Objects with lower
metallicities show lower depletions, but a larger sample of objects is
needed to explore the reasons behind this trend.
