PERUBAHAN JARINGAN HATI IKAN PARI KEMBANG (DASYATIS KUHLI) AKIBAT MERKURI (HG)
ABSTRACT: Blue Spotted Ray
(Dasyatis kuhlii) as the demersal organisms has a lot of accumulation of
pollutants in the water that settles to the bottom. This study was conducted to
look at the liver tissue alteration of Blue Spotted Ray caused by contamination
of mercury (Hg). Performed on 5 tanks. Tank A as a control, tank B with
concentration 0. 025 ppm, tank C with concentration of 0.05 ppm, tank D with
concentration 0.1 ppm and tanks E with concentration 0.2 ppm. The result is
alteration on the liver tissue in the form of atrophy, cloudy swelling, vacuolization
degeneration and even necrosis or death of liver tissue already. The alteration
can reduce and even eliminate the function of the liver as a toxin absorbent
and can lead to death.
