Heavy Metals Concentration in Padina sp. (seaweed) and Halodule pinifolia (seagrass) of Sampadi Island, Sarawak

The aims of this study were to determine the concentrations of Manganese (Mn), Iron (Fe), Aluminium (Al), Lead (Pb), Zinc (Zn), Nickel (Ni), Cobalt (Co), Cadmium (Cd), Chromium (Cr), Copper (Cu) and Mercury (Hg) and to find out the differences of these metals Bioaccumulation Factor (BAF) in Padina s...
