The objectives of this study were to evaluate the infaunal, facultative deposit-feeding clam Amiantis umbonella as a bioindicator of trace-metal contamination and the relative importance of clam burrow sediment and porewater to total accumulation in an urban/industrial coastal environment. Concentrations of eight trace metals (cadmium [Cd], chromium, copper, mercury [Hg], nickel, lead [Pb], van...

Since the quality of sperm is affected by water industrial or agriculture pollution, sperm motility was measured as a sensitive and accurate bioindicator of water quality. In this study, sperm motility was measured by a computer assisted sperm analysis after 24 hours exposure of sperm to different concentration of heavy metals) Cadmium and Zinc). The results show that the sperm motility was not...

Abstract. Arsad S, Putra KT, Latifah N, Kadim MK, Musa M. 2021. Epiphytic microalgae community as aquatic bioindicator in Brantas River, East Java, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 22: 2961-2971. One way to monitor water quality is by using biological indicators, namely epiphytic (periphyton). This study aims analyze the periphyton structure and river health status a saprobic index. The research locati...
