| dc.description.abstract | Research on the correlation of Pb metal ion levels to protein content in blood clams (Anadara granosa) taken at the
coast of the East Kalimantan Rhino Estuary has been conducted. This study aims to determine the levels of Pb metal
ions and protein levels in blood clams based on the size and location of different samples. Correlation of Pb metal ion
levels and protein in blood clams was tested using the Least Square method and Pearson product moment. Analysis of
Pb metal ion levels using SSA (Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer) and protein content analysis using the Kjeldahl
method. In this study the Pb metal ion level was obtained at the public port of Muara Badak Ilir Village, Salo Palai
Village and PT Pier .VICO Indonesia with an average of 0.891 mg / L, 0.968 mg / L, and 0.602 mg / L respectively.
Blood clam protein content at Muara Badak Ilir Village, Salo Palai Village and PT Pier .VICO Indonesia with an
average of 20.4308%, 22.7810% and 18.0098% respectively. The correlation of Pb metal levels to protein levels in
blood clams (Anadara granosa) was stated positively with coefficient correlation results was strong (r = 0.9130) | en_US |
