Analisis Kelimpahan Mikroplastik pada Ikan Sapu-Sapu Pterygoplichthys Pardalis (Castelnau, 1855), Air, dan Sedimen di Dua Daerah Ciliwung, Jakarta Selatan
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers analyzed microplastic abundance in the gills and digestive tracts of suckermouth armadillo catfish, as well as in water and sediment, at two sites on the Ciliwung River in Jakarta. Both fish and environmental samples contained microplastics, with fibers as the most common type, reflecting significant plastic pollution in this urban Indonesian river.
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis kelimpahan dan bentuk mikroplastik pada insang dan saluran pencernaan ikan sapu-sapu Pterygoplichthys pardalis (Castelnau, 1855) air, dan sedimen di stasiun penelitian Tanjung Barat dan stasiun penelitian MT Haryono, Ciliwung, Jakarta Selatan. Pengambilan sampel ikan dilakukan sebanyak 10 ekor dari kedua lokasi. Pengambilan sampel air dan sedimen dilakukan pada 3 titik dari kedua lokasi. Insang dan saluran pencernaan dari setiap ikan sapu-sapu diisolasi dan dihancurkan menggunakan asam nitrat kuat (HNO3 65%). Sampel air diambil 20 liter yang disaring dengan plankton net. Sampel sedimen diambil 200 gram dan dikeringkan di oven. Larutan NaCl jenuh digunakan untuk mengapungkan mikroplastik. Sampel diletakan pada Sedgwick Rafter Chamber dan mikroplastik diamati menggunakan mikroskop. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan kelimpahan mikroplastik pada stasiun penelitian Tanjung Barat, Ciliwung yaitu 5.888 ± 611,7 partikel ind-1 pada insang ikan sapu-sapu, 5.344 ± 694,8 partikel ind-1 pada saluran pencernaan ikan sapu-sapu, 341,9 ± 25,9 partikel L-1 pada air, 297.600 ± 16.185 kg-1 pada sedimen. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan kelimpahan mikroplastik pada stasiun penelitian MT Haryono yaitu 5.835 ± 421,0 partikel ind-1 pada insang ikan sapu-sapu, 5.581 ± 472,7 partikel ind-1 pada saluran pencernaan ikan sapu-sapu, 346 ± 28,4 partikel L-1 pada air, dan 316.089 ± 6883,6 kg-1 pada sedimen. Hasil Uji T Dua Sampel menunjukkan bahwa tidak ada perbedaan yang signifikan antara kelimpahan mikroplastik pada sampel insang, saluran pencernaan, air, dan sedimen dari kedua stasiun penelitian di Ciliwung. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah tidak terdapat perbedaan kandungan mikroplastik di kedua stasiun tersebut.

The Occurrence of Microplastic in Suckermouth Armored Catfish in Krukut River, Jakarta, Indonesia
AI summary Read the abstract
Microplastics were found in the digestive tracts of suckermouth armored catfish from the Krukut River in Jakarta, Indonesia, with prevalence varying by river segment. The findings indicate that even urban river fish used as a water supply source are contaminated with microplastics, raising food safety concerns.
Microplastics in Sediment and Digestive Tract of Amazon Sailfin Catfish (Pterygoplichthys Spp.) in the middle segment of the Citarum River, Karawang, West Java, Indonesia
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers investigated microplastic types, abundance, and polymer composition in sediment and the digestive tracts of Amazon sailfin catfish (Pterygoplichthys spp.) collected from the middle segment of the Citarum River, West Java, Indonesia, across three sampling events in 2022. They found average abundances of 602 particles/kg in sediment and 90.6 particles/individual in fish, with pellets, films, fibres, and fragments all present, and polymers including polyamide, polystyrene, and polypropylene identified.

The presence of microplastics in the digestive tract of commercial fishes off Pantai Indah Kapuk coast, Jakarta, Indonesia
AI summary Read the abstract
Commercial fish from nine species collected at the Pantai Indah Kapuk coast in Jakarta were dissected for microplastics, with 97.13% of 174 fish containing an average of ~12 particles per individual dominated by fibers and fragments of PE, PP, and PS. The study documents near-universal microplastic contamination in urban coastal fisheries in Indonesia with implications for seafood consumers.
