“…However, according to research in Bandar Lampung, the duration of exposure to substances will affect the concentration of Pb entering the body (Samsuar et al, 2017). The same thing was also mentioned in the research in Kampung Rambutan, time/length of work had a significant effect on Pb levels contained in the body where workers with daily working hours of more than 8 hours had Pb levels in Ade Kelana Risfiardy, Novrikasari*, Yuanita Windusari Fakultas Kesehatan Masyarakat Universitas Sriwijaya Corresponding author: *E-mail: novrikasari@fkm.unsri.ac.id the blood that exceeded the threshold (Sofyan, Wintarsih, & Ismail, 2020).…”

Background: Lead (Pb) is one of the heavy metals that has a negative effect on the health of the human body and the environment. This metal is included in the 20 dangerous and toxic heavy metals defined by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 1997. One way to detect exposure to lead (Pb) in the body is to analyze the levels of lead in hair. The impact of exposure to lead (Pb) can cause neurological disorders, kidney function, reproductive system function, and nerve function.Purpose: To analyze lead levels through the hair of smelter workers at the smelting department of smelter limited company on Belitung Island, Bangka Belitung Islands Province.Method: Quantitative with cross-sectional method approach. The population in this study were workers at the smelter limited company smelting division. The object of research was 30 hair samples taken using a purposive sampling method. Data analysis was processed statistically so that the research data could be concluded as univariate, bivariate, and multivariate.Results: The Fisher's exact test showed a p-value of 1,000 so it could be concluded that there was no relationship between age and Pb levels in workers' hair. There is no relationship between working duration and Pb levels in workers' hair with a p-value > 1,000. That there is no significant relationship between length of service and Pb levels in the respondent's hair with a p-value of 0.469. There is a significant relationship between smoking habits, use of PPE, and work environment with lead levels in hair with a p-value of 0.023.Conclusion: There is no relationship between age, length of work, and years of service with Pb levels in the respondent's hair because the p-value is > 0.05. And there is a relationship between the variables of smoking habits, use of PPE, and work environment with Pb levels in hair with a p-value <0.05.

Lead is one of the heavy metals used as an additive in gasoline to enhance lubrication and combustion efficiency in motor vehicles, such as container truck drivers, and is commonly found on highways. Truck drivers have a higher tendency to inhale air containing lead while on the road, which can lead to poisoning. Hair and blood can serve as biomarkers of lead exposure in the body. The purpose of this research is to determine the lead levels in the hair and blood of container truck drivers at PT. Trans Indo Sakti Surabaya using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS). This research is a descriptive study conducted at the Analytical Chemistry Laboratory of the Department of Medical Laboratory Technology, Health Polytechnic Ministry of Health Surabaya and the Standardization and Industrial Services Center Laboratory in Surabaya from October 2022 to May 2023. The samples used in the study are 15 container truck drivers, selected using purposive sampling technique. This study demonstrates results of the lowest hair lead level value at 0.1936 µg/g and the highest at 3.026 µg/g. Among the respondents, 9 were categorized as having normal levels, while 6 respondents were categorized as having abnormal levels. For the blood samples, the lowest lead level obtained was 0.146 µg/dL and the highest was 3.81 µg/dL. The lead levels are still categorized as normal. The presence of lead in the body is influenced by age, length of employment, duration of work, and smoking habits.

“…Plumbum (Pb), which in Indonesian is known as black tin or lead, is one of the nonessential and toxic heavy metals that is very dangerous because it can cause poisoning and death if it exceeds the threshold. The accumulation of lead in the body can cause fatigue, anaemia, as well as compromising the function of kidney, nervous system, circulatory system, and reducing reproductive quality (Sofyan et al, 2020). The toxicity of this metal is very high at the acute and chronic levels.…”

Plumbum or lead is a type of heavy metal that is dangerous if it has exceeded the threshold of 0.07 µg/g based on the National Standardization Agency SNI 2004. This type of heavy metal is found in nature such as in soil, water, and air. The purpose of the study was to determine the phytoremediation ability of two types of ornamental plants, namely Celosia argentea L. and Mirabilis jalappa L., against Plumbum (Pb) metal in soil. The growth parameters observed consisted of plant height, plant stem diameter, number of leaves, leaf length, and leaf width. The ICP-MS (Inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry) was used to analyze the plumbum (Pb) content in soil and plants. The results ofinitial soil analysis prior to the plant planting process (phytoremediation) were 103.17 µg/g which had exceeded the predetermined threshold. The result of the analysis after phytoremediation of Celosia argentea L. showed plumbum (Pb) content of 49.685 µg/g in soil and 1,9548 µg/g in plants. Similarly, the analysis of Ph content after phytoremediation of Mirabilis jalappa L. was 47.802 µg/g in soil and 5.3077 µg/g in plants. Based on biomass calculation of Celosia argentea L. and Mirabilis jalappa L., the obtained Plumbum (Pb) content was 18.84% and 27.85%, respectively. The percentage of Pb removal of Celosia argentea L. was 51.842%, while Mirabilis jalappa L. was 53.667%. The efficiency of Pb absorption of Celosia argentea L. and Mirabilis jalappa L. was 1.895% and 5.145%, respectively. In conclusion, Ornamental plants Celosia argentea L., and Mirabilis jalappa L., are able to act as phytoremediation agents for Plumbum (Pb) metal that pollutes the soil as evidenced by the decrease in Pb levels in the soil after the phytoremediation process.Keywords: Plumbum (Pb), Phytoremediation, Celosia argentea L., Mirabilis jalappa L.
