Organic Pollutants Hazard in Sediments and Green Mussels in Jakarta Bay, Indonesia

Organic pollutants (PAHs, PCBs, and organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) from sediments Asian green mussels (Perna viridis) in Jakarta Bay were studied using GC-MS/MS. The PAHs concentration the ranged 186.64 to 915.71 µg.kg−1 per sediment dry weight (dw), while PCBs OCPs 3 117 17.99 dw, respectively. For P. viridis, 16 types of 591 997 dw mussels, varied 5 6 mussel. selected ratios, including Ant/∑178, Fl/∑202, BaAnt/∑228, IPyr/∑276, potentially showed that sources hydrocarbons generally biogenic terrigenous than for petroleum source. was higher sediments, meanwhile organic pollutant contains chlorine (PCBs OCPs) found sediments. reclamation, urban mangrove areas (stations G H) this study more high risk other sampling stations mussels. According environmental assessment parameters (TEL, ERM, ERL) quality guidelines, have various potential ecological risks. viridis shown be highly contaminated polluted (except station A) not recommended consumption (>200 tissue dw).
