Analisis Unsur Dalam Partikulat Terespirasi Menggunakan Metode Aktivasi Neutron

---

Respirable particulates are particulates which having diameter size at 2-5 mm, due to aerodinamically may be inhaled through respiratory tract and having ability to deposit into lungs, causing damage of the alveolar tissues and inducing health problems. Health Departement of Bandung have reported that prevalency of acute respiratory tract infection disease have increased tendency every year. Meassurement of PM10 in period of 2002-2005 have been done by BPLH Bandung city which pointed that in some places the concentration of PM10 was higher than daily threshold limit values. In this pape­r will be explained the determination of elemental concentration on respirable particulates exposur­e in society for hazard identification and as the earlier step from epidemiological study. Sampling was carry out in four different locatios in Bandung area during periode of 2007. Elemental identification of Br, Mn, Al, I, V, Cl, Ti, and Na was done using neutron activation analysis methode. The results showed that most of the elements which contained in respirable paticulates was found in industr­ial area Cisaranten Wetan as highest concentration.
