Concentration of copper (Cu) in tinfoil barb fish (Barbonymus schwanenfeldii) of Kuantan River and Pinang River, Pahang, Malaysia
No full textThe study was conducted to determine of copper (Cu) in muscle tissue of Tinfoil Barn Fish (Barbonymus
schwanenfeldii) and surface water at Kuantan River and Pinang River, Pahang. The study also determine the water
quality parameters and water quality index (WQI). The fish was caught by using gill net and the were digest using acid
digestion method and analysed by Inductive Coupled Plasma Micro Spectrometer (ICP-MS). The mean concentration
of Cu in fish muscle was 0.5070 ± 0.01748 mg/kg for Kuantan River and 0.4732 ± 0.01807mg/kg for Pinang River
which below the permissible limit set by Malaysia Food Act (MFA) and Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). Cu
concentration were 0.0052 ± 0.0004390 mg/kg in Kuantan River and 0.0017 ± 0.00006669 mg/kg in Pinang River. The
level of Cu in both rivers were not harmful to the fish as the concentrations are below the permissible limit set by US
Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and National Water Quality Standard (NWQS). There was no significant
difference (p < 0.05) in the concentration of muscle tissue for Cu between rivers. In contrast, there showed a
significant difference (p < 0.05) in the concentration of Cu in water between rivers. Kuantan River and Pinang River
have been classified in Class II according to the Department of Environment (DOE) that the water must require
conventional treatment for water supply purpose
