Green mussel (Perna viridis) has filter-feeding habits and a sessile way of life, with the main food components of plankton and organic matter in the waters. These food components can contaminate green mussels when it accumulates heavy metals. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate heavy metals content and the bioconcentration of lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), and cadmium (Cd) in green mussels based on different sizes and ages. The study was conducted on Pasaran Island, Lampung, Indonesia, and used green mussels aged 3, 5, 7 to 9 months as samples, with 2 replications. The AAS (Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry) method was used in the analysis of Pb, Hg, and Cd, sampling technique used purposive sampling. The result showed that green mussels at different ages and sizes has impact on Pb content, while an increase of one unit of age and size of green mussels has no effect on the metal content of Hg and Cd. Furthermore, the highest bioconcentration of Pb and Hg was obtained at 9 months, while Cd was observed at 3 months. Based on the results of this study it can be concluded that the simple linear regression appropriate a functional relationship between Pb and the different ages and sizes green mussels cultivated on Pasaran Island , while heavy metals Hg and Cd appropriate with a polynomial quadratic approach and almost do not exist in the form of a functional relationship between Hg and Cd with the different ages and sizes green mussels. Even though it contains heavy metals in below the maximum limit, but care needs to be taken in addressing this phenomenon due to its nature heavy metals that can accumulate in living tissue, thus consuming green mussels containing heavy metals even in relatively small amounts is not recommended.

Keywords: Heavy metals, Perna viridis, east coast of Peninsular Malaysia ABSTRAK Kajian lepas melaparkan kupang Perna viridis adalah bertaburan secara meluas in persisiran pantai barat Semenanjung Malaysia tetapi bukan pada persisiran pantai timur Semenanjung. Dalam kajian ini, pemantauan dan pensampelan telah dilakukan dari Tumpat ke Mersing pada April 2004, tetapi kupang hanya boleh dijumpai pada Nenasi dan Kuala Pontian di persisiran pantai Pahang. Oleh itu, kajian ini memastikan bahawa kupang pada persisiran pantai timur adalah tidak bertaburan meluas seperti pada persisiran pantai barat Semenanjung. Kupang yang disampel telah dianalisis untuk kadmium (Cd), kuprum (Cu), plumbum (Pb) dan zink (Zn) dan kepekatan (J.lg/g herat kering) logam dalam tisu lembut keseluruhan adalah Cd: 1.89-2.13, Cu: 3.84-10.34, Pb: 7.95-8.84 dan Zn: 93.1-119.6. Keputusan menunjukkan bahawa sampel Kuala Pontian menimbun lebih tinggi kepekatan Cu (dalam tinggalan tisu lembut dan mantel) dan Zn (dalam tinggalan tisu lembut, mantel dan otot) apabila dibandingkan dengan Nenasi manakala Cd dan Pb menunjukkan tiada perbezaan yang signifikan (P> 0.05) di antara kedua-dua lokasi. Oleh sebab tiada input dan aktiviti antropogenik pada kedua-dua lokasi, perubahan kepekatan logam yang dibiotimbun di dalam tisu lembut herkemungkinan disebabkan oleh perbezaan yang signifikan dari segi saiz (panjang cangkerang dan lebar cangkerang) dan tahap kemasinan bagi kedua-dua lokasi. Faktarjaktar persekitaran yang lain juga mungkin boleh menyebabkan perbezaan dalam 'bioavailability' logam di dalam persisiran pantai yang dicerminkan oleh kepekatan herlainan di tisu lembut yang berlainan bagi kupang tersebut.

The concentrations of Cu, Cd, Zn, Pb, Ni and Fe in the different soft tissues of Perna viridis from the west and east coast of The Straits of Johore (SOJ) were determined. Crystalline style (CS) recorded higher accumulation of Cu (west: 58.2 mg/kg dry weight; east: 56.0 mg/ kg dry weight), Cd (west: 9.45 mg/kg dry weight; east: 3.93 mg/kg dry weight), Pb (west: 49.5 mg/kg dry weight; east: 7.07 mg/kg dry weight) and Ni (west: 40.0 mg/kg dry weight; east: 20.2 mg/kg dry weight) than those other soft tissues. Byssus meanwhile recorded high levels of Zn (west: 173 mg/kg dry weight; east: 193 mg/kg dry weight) and Fe (west: 3213 mg/kg dry weight; east: 1221 mg/kg dry weight). By comparing the accumulation of heavy metal concentrations in all the eight tissues, CS and byssus recorded the highest accumulation of heavy metals among all tissues, followed by other tissues namely foot, gill, gonad, mantel, muscle and remainder, which recorded relatively low level on heavy metal concentrations. Generally, the soft tissues recorded higher heavy metal concentrations on the east coast than on the west coast of the SOJ. This indicated a high bioavailability and contamination of the potentially toxic heavy metals on the east coast which was due to various human activities.
Human Health Risk Assessment of Heavy Metals Bioaccumulation In Fish and Mussels from Jakarta Bay
Squalen Bulletin of Marine and Fisheries Postharvest and Biotechnology
Aquatic environment of Jakarta Bay have already been highlighted due to its heavy metals contamination which may lead into food safety concern of fisheries products derived from this region. This research aimed to investigate bioaccumulation level of heavy metals (Pb, Cd, and As) in fish and mussels from Jakarta Bay, as a human risk assessment of seafood consumption. Samples of mussels and fish were taken from Penjaringan, Tarumanegara, Cilincing, and Tanjung Pasir district. Bioaccumulation of heavy metals was analyzed by Inductively Coupled Plasma -Mass Spectrometry technique. Results of the study revealed that metals bioaccumulation in fisheries products were varied, with As (Arsenic) as the highest metal contaminant (0.68 mg/kg, dry weight). Furthermore, estimated daily intake (EDI), target hazard quotient (THQ), total target hazard quotient (TTHQ), and safety limits prescribed by various agencies, showed that consumption of fisheries products from Jakarta Bay considered as relat...

The distributions of Cu, Pb, and Zn in the different soft Pasir Panjang, Peninsular tissues, shell sections and layers of the green-lipped mussel Perna viridis from an area with unpolluted water in Malaysia, were studied. The soft tissues analysed were the lJyssus, mantle and gills, posterior adductor muscle, retractor byssal muscle, foot, crystalline style, gonad and the remaining visceral mass. The level of Cu in the crystalline style was significantly (P< 0.05) elevated when compared to the other soft tissues while elevated levels of Cu, Pb and Zn were found in the byssus. The byssus is therefore a more sensitive material for Cu, Pb and Zn. The heavy metal concentrations in the different sections of the mussel's shell layers were also differed. The level of Pb was significantly (P< 0.05) higher in the inner shell layer than in the periostracum layer while Cu and Zn concentrations were significantly (P< 0.05) higher in the periostracum layer than in the inner shell layer. Copper, Pb and Zn were evenly distributed within the different sections of the inner shell layer with no significant (P> 0.05) difference in the concentrations of these metals in the different sections. The periostracum shell layer was found to be a more sensitive biomonitoring material for Cu and Zn than the inner shell layer.
The use of green mussel as bioindicator of heavy metal pollution in Indonesia: a review
Environmental Analysis Health and Toxicology
Asian green mussel is a marine animal that is used as food by most Indonesians. The mussels are widely cultivated in tropical countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, and other Asian countries. The mussel, known as perna viridis, is marine biota that is a filter feeder in the waters. Therefore, the quality of its meat is greatly influenced by the quality of the sea in its habitat. It is a food that is quite popular with the community but can endanger public health due to the accumulation of heavy metals. This study used a literature review by collecting data related to heavy metal concentrations in green mussel tissue in Indonesia. The results showed that the mussels from several sampling locations still exceeded the maximum acceptable limits of lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), and cadmium (Cd) concentration according to the standards of the food and drug administration of the Republic of Indonesia. Consumption of green mussels can increase health risks if you frequently consume the...

Concern over consumption safety of farmed green mussel (Perna viridis) in Marudu Bay rises due to the increasing agricultural activities taking place around the bay. This urges us to conduct a study to determine the status of heavy metals (Cu, Mn, Ni and Zn) content in the mussel and sediment samples from the aquaculture site and its relationship with the environmental parameters. Samples of 120 mussels and sediment were collected and analyzed monthly for one year period. Water parameters including temperature, pH, salinity, dissolved oxygen and current speed were collected in-situ during sampling. The mean content of Cu, Mn, Ni and Zn in the mussel was at 45.81±46.94, 48.55±22.21, 8.66±5.02 and 46.72±17.38, respectively. In sediment, the mean content of the metals was at 39.76±36.13, 276.24±189.32, 61.61±17.83 and 55.99±54.49, respectively. Current study also found that, the mean contents of Cu, Mn, Ni and Zn were generally higher during northeast monsoon and lower during southwest monsoon. In addition, the Mn content in green mussel was above the permissible limit. Hence an in-depth study is needed to ascertain the sources of Mn in the farmed green mussel in Marudu Bay.
