Therefore, this study aimed to carry out a risk analysis of lead exposure uponroadside food in SD PucangComplex Sidoarjo.This is an exploratory descriptive study. The population are all roadside foods sold inPucangelementary school especially beside JI. Ahmad Yani. Samplesconsisted of roadside foodthat has been exposed for 2 hours. Data were analyzed descriptively by finding RQvalues fromthe calculated intake.The results of lead examination in roadside food discovered as much as 8.288 ppm inbatagor, 6.637 ppm in siomay and 3.751 ppm in meatballs. Following analyses of theseexposures, a minimum intake of 20 mg/ kg.day and a maximum intake of 44.2 mg/ kg.day. Inthe risk characterization stage, RQminimum value of 2.108 and RQmaximum value of 4,42.108were obtained. The study concluded that the concentration were not safe for consumption. Riskmanagement strategy was carried out by calculating safe concentration limit of lead at theamount of 1,875. 10-8 mg/gr.day and the limit for safe consumption rate of lead at the amountof 1.8. 10-7 gr/ day. Meanwhile, the risk management means consisted of technologicalapproach, socia-economicapproach, and institutional approach.Therefore it is advisable to initiate training for vendors, use of food cover, conductfollow up research and disseminate information on the dangers of contaminated roadside foodto students of Pucangelementary school.Keywords : Lead, roadside foods, risk analysis, SO Pucang Complex
