Extinction-corrected oxygen abundance map using the strong-line (O3N2) method described in M. Pettini & B. E. J. Pagel (2004). Both objects 1 and 2 show slightly supersolar (≳0.2 dex) abundance at the core. The lack of abundance peak at object 3 is likely due to heavy dust obscuration and the dilution by the starburst region outside the thick dust screen.
