This study aims to determine the concentration of heavy metal Hg and Pb in estuary waters Tondano and Sario River in the Bay of Manado, and compare the state of the estuary waters Tondano with Sario estuary waters. Information obtained from this study is expected to be useful for the management of the marine environment, particularly coastal waters, so the environmental monitoring and utilization of coastal areas can be better implemented. The study was conducted for 4 months from September to December 2013. Analasis heavy metal analysis was performed according to the instructions better for Hg, Zn and Pb. The content of Hg and Zn in the water column in the estuary waters Tondano and Sario still within tolerable levels. The content of Pb in the water column in the estuary waters and estuary Tondano and Sario has passed the specified levels and has passed the tolerable levels. Human activity continues to grow around the Gulf waters of Manado so may result in appropriate changes that can lead to contamination, because it is necessary to monitor water quality regularly and continuously.   Keywords: pollution, heavy metals, water quality   A b s t r a k Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui konsentrasi logam berat Hg dan Pb pada Perairan Muara Sungai Tondano dan Sungai Sario di Teluk Manado, serta membandingkan keadaan Perairan Muara Sungai Tondano dengan Perairan Muara Sungai Sario. Informasi yang diperoleh dari penelitian ini diharapkan dapat bermanfaat bagi pengelolaan lingkungan perairan, khususnya perairan pantai, sehingga pemantauan lingkungan dan pemanfaatan wilayah pesisir pantai dapat dilaksanakan lebih baik. Penelitian dilakukan selama 4 bulan sejak bulan September sampai dengan bulan Desember 2013. Analasis logam berat dilakukan menurut petunjuk analisis baik untuk Hg, Zn dan Pb. Kandungan Hg dan Zn pada kolom air pada perairan Muara Sungai Tondano dan Muara Sungai Sario masih dalam kadar yang ditoleransi. Kandungan Pb pada kolom air di perairan Muara Sungai Tondano dan Muara Sungai Sario telah melewati kadar yang ditetapkan dan telah melewati kadar yang ditoleransi. Adanya aktivitas manusia yang terus berkembang di sekitar Perairan Teluk Manado sehingga dapat mengakibatkan terjadinya perubahan-perubahan secara tepat yang dapat mengakibatkan pencemaran, karena itu perlu diadakan pemantauan kualitas air secara berkala dan berkesinambungan.   Kata kunci : pencemaran, logam berat, kualitas air

The article is focused on estimation of Zinc in the roadside forages, and blood of buffaloes feeding on these forages. This study was carried out in Sargodha during December 2015 to January 2016 (winter) and May 2016 to June 2016 (summer). Five road sites (Mateela, Faisalabad roadside, Shaheenabad roadside, Bhalwal roadside and 50 chak) were selected from sampling of forages, soil and buffalo blood sample. Heavy metal analysis of all digested samples was done with atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Analysis of variance and correlation was done with two way ANOVA. This study regarding the accumulation of zinc in forages, soil and the buffalo blood would help the authorities to exactly determine the agents which are responsible for increasing pollution in the environment.

 Objective: Ulva reticulata is a marine edible green seaweed widely distributed along the coastal lines of India. The present study was designed to screen the phytochemicals and evaluate heavy metals content of U. reticulata collected from Rameshwaram, Tamil Nadu, India, in the perspective of assessing their therapeutic value and/or safety in relation to its uses.Method: The seaweed sample was subjected to extraction with solvents of different polarities (methanol, ethanol, acetone, chloroform, and petroleum ether) and screened for phytochemicals according to standard methods. Heavy metal analysis was also performed with the dried sample powder using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrophotometer (ICP-OES).Result: Preliminary phytochemical analysis revealed the presence of reducing sugar, proteins, flavonoids, glycosides, alkaloids, and anthraquinones. ICP-OES indicated the seaweed to contain relative amount of heavy metals in the order of iron (Fe) > chromium (Cr) > Zinc (Zn) > nickel (Ni) > copper (Cu) > lead (Pb) - cadmium (Cd) and is within the permissible limits set by the WHO/FAO, except Fe and Cr.Conclusion: The different solvent extracts of U. reticulata showed the presence of the number of phytochemicals. Furthermore, the present study has revealed the presence of heavy metals in U. reticulata which can be a representative picture of the dissolved metals in the aquatic phase.
