- ABSTRACKMussles blood (Anadara granosa) is a type of shell that is often consumed byIndonesian community. The shells have non selective feeder and sessile filter that relativelyhigh which mean heavy metal content is found in the shell’s body due to the accumulation ofthe heavy metals. In an effort to reduce heavy metals in mussles blood, it can be done usingthe utilization of cassava skin waste. Cassava skin can be used as a material of reducing theheavy metal content of Pb (Lead) in mussles because it contains cellulose that can modify thegroup to produce hydroxyl which can bind Pb metal ions. This research aimed to analyze theeffect of soaking of cassava skin solution (Manihot esculenta Cortex) with decreasing level ofheavy metal lead (Pb) on mussles blood (Anadara granosa).This was an experimental research with treatment of cassava skin concentration of1%, 1.5% and 3% and soaking time 10 minutes, 40 minutes and 80 minutes. The independentvariables are concentration of cassava skin solution, soaking time and dependent variable inthis research is Pb concentration in mussles blood (Anadara granosa). Samples wereanalyzed using an Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (SSA). The data were analyzedusing Kendall's Tau test.The results showed that there was influence of decreasing percentage of heavy metalPb on soaking time (p <0.05) but did not affect to concentration of cassava skin solution (p>0.05).Keywords: Mussles blood (Anadara granosa), cassava skin concentration(ManihotesculentaCortex), soaking time, SSA
