A comparative study of heavy metal concentrations in the clam Corbicula javanica and surface sediments collected from clean and polluted sites of Langat River, Selangor.
Previously, anthropogenic activities in Langat River had been reported to have negative impact on the riverine water quality (Sarmani, 1989; Azrina et al., 2006). This involved a wide range of macrobenthic invertebrates. Since the Langat River serves as one of the major sources of drinking water for...
