The green-lipped mussel Perna viridis, transplanted from the polluted Kg.Pasir Puteh (KPP) to relatively unpolluted sites at Sungai Belungkor (SB) and Kg.Sg.Melayu (KSM) was examined for lithium (Li), strontium (Sr), and vanadium (V) depuration kinetics.After six weeks of depuration, v levels were found to have the greatest decline (41.7% at SB and 38.9% at KSM).The present study also demonstrated significant declines for Li (20.5% and 24.1%) and Sr (26.7% and 21.7%) at the locations.The estimat
