This research was conducted in March to April 2018 at Laboratory of Natural and Mineral Materials Department of Chemical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, University of Riau and Laboratory of Marine Chemistry. The purpose of this research is to obtain seaweed extract E. cottoni with n-heksana and etil asetat solvent and to know toxicity value seaweed extract. The method used to analyze this research is experiment. This research used rancangan acak lengkap (RAL). The handling was conducted with giving different concentration handling from Artemia salina (10, 100, 1000 ppm) by three repetitions.
