RESIDU DDT (Dichloro Diphenyl Trichloroethane) PADA BURUNG CEREK JAWA (Charadrius javanicus Chasen 1938) DI KAWASAN PANTAI TRISIK KULON PROGO YOGYAKARTA
Abstract: Residues of DDT
(Dichloro Diphenyl Trichloroethane) in coastal environment can reach into the
Bird’s body through intermediary Javan Plover’s food. The residues will
experience biomagnification and biotransformation in organism compartment. The
purpose of this research was to determine residue of DDT in the Trisik
seashore, natural food, and the Javan Plover’s body part. Research located in
the area of lower Progo River and coastal Trisik. Environmental sampling methods
made directly. Sampling of natural food by coring and sampling birds by mist
nets. Detection of DDT residues in environment sample by gas chromatography
(GC). Measurement of DDT residues in natural food and bird by
spectrophotometer. Quantitative Data are obtained by measurement of
environmental samples , food, and Javan Plover. Eventhough Qualitative Data are
discussed in descriptive. The results showed DDT residues were detected in the
water samples of the Progo River and coastal Trisik of range 0,0407-0,0581 ppm, land sediments
from the Progo River and Trisik seashore about 0,192 ppm-0,760 ppm, natural
food ranging from 0.02-0.07 ppm, and finally the residue from the Javan Plover
reached 0.04-1.05 ppm.
