Cimanuk Waters, Bacterial Density, Microbiological Parameter, Pollutant IndicatorAbstract
Cimanuk waters are one of Indonesia’s areas with abundant natural resource potential that have been threatened with contamination due to impulsive population growth and high human activities. Microbiological aspects are one of the parameters that can indicate environmental pollution. Therefore, pollution-indicator bacteria such as coliform and pathogenic bacteria have become one of the most important indicators of environmental conditions. This study conducted an analysis of pollution indicator bacteria at several sampling sites around the Cimanuk estuary to assess the environmental status. Surface seawater (±30 cm) was taken using a Zobell water sampler with
a sterile 300 ml bottle. Samples were subjected to microbiological analysis, including total coliform contaminating bacteria, Escherichia coli, heterotrophic bacteria, halotolerant, and pathogenic bacteria. Results showed severe fecal contamination of stations compared to the WHO standards, and total coliforms varied between stations in the range of 1500-3000 CFU/100mL. The presence of pathogenic bacteria such as E. coli, Vibrio cholera, Aeromonas spp., Salmonela spp., and other bacteria indicative of fecal contamination were reported. Coliform bacteria and E. coli were found at the highest density in coastal waters near the mainland, indicating waste input due to anthropogenic activities. This study shows that Cimanuk waters are not good for biota and recreational studies.
