Asian green mussel is a marine animal that is used as food by most Indonesians. The mussels are widely cultivated in tropical countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, and other Asian countries. The mussel, known as perna viridis, is marine biota that is a filter feeder in the waters. Therefore, the quality of its meat is greatly influenced by the quality of the sea in its habitat. It is a food that is quite popular with the community but can endanger public health due to the accumulation of heavy metals. This study used a literature review by collecting data related to heavy metal concentrations in green mussel tissue in Indonesia. The results showed that the mussels from several sampling locations still exceeded the maximum acceptable limits of lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), and cadmium (Cd) concentration according to the standards of the food and drug administration of the Republic of Indonesia. Consumption of green mussels can increase health risks if you frequently consume them from cultivating or catching locations that have been contaminated with heavy metals.

Accumulation of heavy metal Pb into the tissue can proceed through a food chain or environmental exposure. This study was to determine the content of heavy metals Pb in water, sediments and mussels (perna viridis). This research was conducted in March 2016, in the waters of Lekok Pasuruan at the three stations. TPI Station 1, Station 2 at the mouth of the Rejoso river and station 3 nearby PLTU 3. The water, sediments and green mussels (Perna viridis) samples were collected for Pb analysis using Absorpotion Atomic Spectrophotometer (AAS). In addition to the water quality such as salinity, temperature, DO and pH was observed. The results showed the highest Pb content in the water (0.4444 mg/l), sediment (23.8284 mg/kg) and green mussel tissue (1.5098 mg/kg) were found at station 2 (Rejoso river mouth). The Pb content in green mussel seemed to above safety level to consume.

Pasaran Island waters is the location of green mussel cultivation (Perna viridis), where the waters has the potential to experience heavy metal pollution including Cadmium (Cd). Green mussels are filter feeders and have a slow movement, thus they have the potential to experience heavy metal bioconcentration on their bodies. The aim of this study was to determine the bioconcentration of heavy metal cadmium (Cd) in green mussels (Perna viridis) which were cultivated in the waters of Pasaran Island. Samples were collected in February 2018 in green mussel cultivating cages of Pasaran Island water with 3 and 6 cm mussel size. Sampling was taken at three stations with three replications each. The Cd content was analyzed using AAS method. The results showed that the water content of Cd at the observation location ranged from 0.022 to 0.024 mg/l. The content of Cd of mussel meat is 0.030 to 0.033 mg/kg, the value is below the threshold based on Indonesian National Standard (SNI). The BFC value of 3 cm mussel is 1.33 mg/kg, while the 6 cm mussel is 1.47 mg/kg which indicates that the green mussels on Pasaran Island are accumulatively low on Cd.
