Metals contamination using Polymesoda Expansa (Marsh Clam) as bio-indicator in Kelantan river, Malaysia = Pencemaran logam di Sungai Kelantan, Malaysia menggunakan Polymesoda expansa (Lokan) sebagai penunjuk biologi

Bivalve, such as marsh clam (Polymesoda expansa) feed by filtering most of the suspended particle in water that surrounding them. Lots of elements being trap into their body via this feeding habit including pollutant such as trace metals. Unfortunately, these marsh clams were taken directly by human...

Due to its ability to filter water, marsh clam was used to monitor the level of trace metals in aquatic system in significant place such as industrial area.

On the other hand, the size of marsh clam does not significantly correlate to the concentration of selected trace metals.
