Abstract

Benzene is a hazardous ingredient for health. Benzene is used as a latex glue solvent in the shoe industry. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between benzene exposure with trans, trans-muconic acid and the blood profile of shoe workers in Romokalisari Surabaya. This study is a cross-sectional study conducted in the shoe industry in Romokalisari Surabaya with a number of research subjects of 20 shoe workers. Data collection was carried out by measuring benzene levels conducted at 8 measurement points in Surabaya Romokalisari, taking workers' blood, measuring body weight and conducting interviews with respondents. Data were analyzed using correlation tests. The results showed that there was no relationship between benzene levels with t, t-MA (p-value = 0.205), there was no relationship between benzene RQ and t, t-MA (p-value = 0.271) and there was no relationship between the ECR and blood profile of workers in Romokalisari. There is no correlation between benzene levels and t,t-MA, RQ and t,t-MA and there is no relationship between the ECR and all the profile parameters of the blood workers in Romokalisari.
