This strdy was performed to investigate the effect of chitin, chitosan and dithiocarbamate chitosan against cadmium accumulation. The Scapharca subcrenata were divided into four independent groups which were one control and three experimintal groups by camium alone treatmint or chitin, chitosan and dithsan and dithiocabamate chitosan which cadmium. Samples were analyzed by Varian 30/40 atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The results obtained were as follows;1. The cadmium concentration in water were isgnificantly decreased in three experimental group compared with that of control group (P<0.05)2. The cadmium concentration in muscle of S. srbcrenata in cadmium alone treatment group were similar to that of the chitin treatmint group, but chitosan and dithiocarbamate chitosan treatmint groups were significantly decreased (P<0.05)In conclusion, this study revealed the effect of chitin chitosan and dithiocarbamate chitosan against cadmium accumulation. It exhibited the highest effect at dithiocarbamate chitosan treatment group.
A soudy on the distrobution and seasonal changes of the benthic macrovertebrates community was performed on the 5 intertidal rocky shores of Chujado in the Cheju-Channel during four seasons from March 1996 to February 1997.The macroinvertebrates identified in Chujado totally composed of 9 phyla, 18 classes, 38 orers, 147 species. The macroinvertebrates idetified according to the stations were 9 phyla, 138 species in Sinyangri(ST. 1); 8 phyla, 134 species in Younghungri(ST. 4);and 8 phyla, 131 species in Daeseori(ST. 5); The species diversities of the lower intertidal zones were higher than those of middle and upper intertidal zones, however, the seasonal appearance in number of species was not different among the stations. The vertically distributed dominant species in intertidal zone were; Nodifittorina exigua and Nerita japponica in the supralittoral zones; Monodonta labio labil and Buccinulum ferrea in the upper zones; Septifer keenae and Lunella coronata corensis in the middle zones; Purpura clavigara, S. keenae and Pomatoleios krausii in the submiddle zones; and Actinia mesembryanthemum, Tetracliata squamosa japonica and N. schrenckii in the lower zones. The intertidal community structures between Chujado and Cheju coast showed that Chujado composed of fewer number of species and lower value of species diversity and richness indices than Cheju coast.
