ANALISA KANDUNGAN KADAR LOGAM BERAT PADA DAGING KEPITING (Scylla serrata) DI PERAIRAN MUARA SUNGAI BANYUASIN
Abstract: Heavy metal was a
pollutant because its stable and difficult to disentangle. Heavy metals in the
waters of Banyuasin’s estuaries alleged negative impact on crabs and other
aquatic animals. To see the impact research on the analysis of heavy metal
content in the crab (Scylla serrata), in the territorial waters of Banyuasin’s
estuaries. The objective of this study was to determine the content of heavy
metals (Pb, Cu and Fe) in the crab meat (Scylla serrata) in the territorial
waters of Banyuasin’s estuaries. Completely randomized design was used with 3
stations treatment and each station was repeated 3 times. Parameters observed
were lead (Pb), copper (Cu) and iron (Fe).The results showed that the content
of lead (Pb), copper (Cu) and iron (Fe) were different at each station.The
highest content of lead (Pb) was on SI 0.0073 ppm and the highest content of
copper (Cu) was on S-III 0.3713 ppm. The result indicates that still safe the
crab (Scylla serrata) to consume based on national standards Pb 0,5 mg/kg and
Cu 20 mg/kg . Iron content exceeds the standards set by the Department of
Health in S-II at 2.054 ppm. Results of analysis of the iron content (Fe) on
crab meat in consumption should be limited according to the established
standards 2 mg/kg.
