Citric acid contained in lime is 7 – 7,6%. The decrease of Pb levels caused by acid solution can damage the complex bond of metal protein, besides Pb is a type of fat soluble metal so that by dissolving the fat indirectly also decrease the levels of Pb and Cd in sells meat and Shrimp.<\/em> The purpose of this research <\/em>wa<\/em>s to know the effectiveness of lime juice (Citrus autontrifolia swingle) in decreasing levels of Heavy Metal Mercury (Hg), Cadmium (Cd), and Lead (Pb) on Shells Meat and WhiteShrimp.<\/em> The type of this research <\/em>wa<\/em>s experimental quantitative research that <\/em>wa<\/em>s treatment with immersion of lime juice (Citrus autrontifolia swingle) with concentration of 15% and 30% in 30 minutes and 60 minutes immersion variation to decrease the levels of Hg, Cd and Pb on shells meat and White shrimp.<\/em> The results of the study showed that the decrease of mercury weight (Hg), Cadmium (Cd), and Lead (Pb) on Shellfish and White Shrimp after 15% of lime juice was immersed in 30 minutes of soaking time effectively decreased Hg levels in Marcia himalina <\/em>a<\/em>mounted to 97.95%. In soaking lime juice 15% in 60 minutes immersion time is most effective to decrease Hg levels in Marcia hiantina shells by 98.17%. In 30% of the 30% of 30% lime juice in 30 minutes of immersion is most effective in reducing Hg levels in Marcia hiantina shells by 93.33%. As well as on soaking water of lime juice 30% in 60 minutes soaking time most effectively reduce the level of Hg on Marcia hiantina shells by 97.6%.<\/em><\/p>\n

Meat shells and white shrimp soaked with lime juice decreased heavy metal levels. The longer the shell in soak with lime juice then the heavy metal levels decreases. This decrease <\/em>wa<\/em>s due to the long immersion time the metal contact with the acid is also longer, so acid has a long chance to bind the metal.<\/em><\/p>\n
