Abstract :

Sea cucumber is a commodity fishery  that is  traded  international. One of  the sea cucumber that has economic value is the local sea cucumber (Phyllophorus sp.) believed that contain compounds can be immunomodulatory.  Phyllophorus  sp.  is  one  of  the  three  dominant  species  of  sea  cucumbers  in abundance  and  distribution  in  the  Surabaya  East  Coast  (Winarni,dkk.,  2010).  Coastal  environmental issues  that deserve  the attention  is  the problem  of  heavy metal pollution  in coastal waters. The highest toxicity of heavy metals for aquatic animals and humans are mercury (Hg) (Widowati dkk, 2008). The purpose of  this study was to determine levels of heavy metals bioaccumulation of mercury (Hg)  in  the  local  sea  cucumber  (Phyllophorus  sp.) From  the East Coast Surabaya and  to determine  the heavy metal  content  of mercury  (Hg)  in  the  local  sea  cucumber  (Phyllophorus  sp.)  has  exceeded  the threshold or does not. The experiment was conducted on the East Coast Surabaya and analisys of heavy metal Mercury (Hg)  in Balai Besar Laboratorium Kesehatan (BBLK) Surabaya. The method used  is  the method of field observation and analyzed descriptively.   The  results  showed  levels  of  mercury  bioaccumulation  of  heavy  metals  (Hg)  from BCFo-w value from 454.78– 802.05 and BCFo-s from 31,42 – 111,26. This shows Phyllophorus sp. have the  ability  to  accumulate  heavy  metals  with  low  until  middle  accumulation  level  category. Mercury content of the Phyllophorus sp. obtained range from 0.031 to 0.061 ppm, sea water ranged from 0.0015 to 0.0023 ppm and  sediments  ranged  from 0.0417  to 0.112 ppm. Mercury  levels  in Phyllophorus  sp.  and sediment is below the NAB, but the sea water has exceeded from  NAB. Water quality parameters are still in normal conditions in accordance with the quality standards KMLH (2004) that temperatures 26-28 º C, pH 7-8, salinity ranged from 28-29 ‰, DO value range 4-5 mg / L and brightness between 2-3 m.
