Biomonitor
Multispesies Air Tawar (Multispecies Freshwater Biomonitor¨) (MFB)
menggunakan pengukuran dan analisis pelbagai kelakuan daripada pelbagai jenis
organisma akuatik untuk memantau kualiti air dalam ekosistem air tawar. Kajian
ini dijalankan di dalam makmal bagi menentukan respons spesifik udang air tawar (Macrobrachium lanchesteri) dan ikan gapi (Poecilia
reticulata) terhadap logam berat kadmium (Cd). Kepekatan Cd yang berbeza
didedahkan kepada M. lanchesteri (1 ppb dan 10 ppb) dan P.
reticulata (100 ppb dan 560 ppb) dan perubahan perilaku setiap organisma
direkod dengan MFB selama 2
jam. Hasil yang diperolehi menunjukkan peningkatan respons pergerakan dan
ventilasi udang air tawar dan ikan dengan peningkatan kepekatan pendedahan
kepada logam Cd. Kajian ini menunjukkan udang memberi respons yang lebih
sensitif kepada logam Cd berbanding ikan gapi dan spesies tempatan ini sesuai
digunakan sebagai organisma penunjuk untuk MFB.

ABSTRACT
The
Multispecies Freshwater Biomonitor¨ (MFB) uses the
measurement and analysis of different types of behaviours from different
aquatic organisms for monitoring the water quality in freshwater ecosystem. The
aim of this study was to determine the specific response of freshwater shrimp (Macrobrachium lanchesteri) and guppy fish (Poecilia
reticulata) to cadmium (Cd) in the laboratory. Different concentrations of
Cd were exposed to M. lanchesteri (1 ppb and 10 ppb) and P.
reticulata (100 ppb and 560 ppb) and the behavioural changes of the
organisms were recorded by MFB for
2 hours. Results showed that the behavioural and ventilation response of M. lanchesteri and P. reticulata increased with
increasing exposure concentrations of Cd. Results also showed that the shrimp
was more sensitive to Cd than the guppy fish and these local species were
suitable as indicator organism for the MFB.
