PENENTUAN SELENIUM HEALTH BENEFIT VALUE (SE-HBV) DAN MOTIVASI KONSUMEN OLAHAN HIU PARI

Abstract

Ikan hiu dan pari berpotensi mengakumulasi logam berat dan menimbulkan risiko kesehatan pada manusia apabila dikonsumsi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan cemaran logam berat merkuri dan kandungan selenium serta hubungannya dengan motivasi konsumen dalam memilih produk olahan ikan hiu dan pari. Proses penelitian mencakup penentuan merkuri dan selenium dengan Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICPMS) dan pendekatan kuisioner untuk mengumpulkan data preferensi konsumen yang akan dianalisis menggunakan SEM-PLS. Uji logam berat menunjukkan 3 dari 32 produk olahan tercemar merkuri berada di atas batas aman konsumsi menurut Badan Pengawas Obat dan Makanan (BPOM). Uji kandungan selenium menunjukkan bahwa 4 dari 32 produk olahan memiliki nilai Se-HBV negatif, yang mengindikasikan tidak adanya efek protektif terhadap paparan merkuri. Hasil SEM-PLS menunjukkan bahwa Health Attitude dan Environmental Attitude berpengaruh signifikan terhadap Health Consumer Behavior.

Sharks and rays have the potential to accumulate heavy metals, which pose health risks to humans when they are consumed. This study aims to determine the contamination of mercury and the content of selenium, as well as their relationship with consumer motivation in choosing processed shark and ray products. The research process includes the determination of mercury and selenium using Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) and a questionnaire approach to gather consumer preference data, which will be analyzed using SEM PLS. Heavy metal testing shows that 3 of the 32 processed product contaminated with mercury exceed the safe consumption limits set by the Food and Drug Administration (BPOM). Selenium content testing revealed that 4 of the 32 processed products exhibited negative Se-HBV values, indicating no protective effect againts mercury exposure. The SEM-PLS results show that Health Attitude and Environmental Attitude have a significant influence on Health Consumer Behavior.
