Industrial Hygiene & Toxicology Laboratory
Connecting workplace environmental health, toxicology, and practical environmental research.
Laboratory Overview
The Industrial Hygiene & Toxicology Laboratory (Laboratorium Higiene Industri dan Toksikologi, Lab HI) supports education and research in workplace environmental health and toxicology within ITB’s Environmental Engineering program.
Established in 1976, the laboratory develops expertise in identifying, evaluating, and controlling workplace risk factors, including their toxicological aspects.
Its activities span physical, chemical, biological, and ergonomic factors, alongside food and beverage sanitation, appropriate environmental technology, and disease vector control. Practical work and research connect field needs with scientific approaches.
Areas of Expertise & Analysis
The laboratory’s documented scope covers six areas. Contact the team to discuss the method, sample requirements, and availability relevant to your study.
Industrial Hygiene & Occupational Safety
Measurement and evaluation of physical, chemical, biological, and ergonomic workplace factors, ventilation and noise, together with occupational safety management system (SMK3) audits and implementation.
Toxicology
Toxicity studies including LC₅₀, LD₅₀, subacute and chronic testing, mutagenicity and carcinogenicity testing, and assessment of waste and treatment-product toxicity.
Food & Beverage Sanitation
Food-quality assessment from raw materials through serving, including food-safety analysis using HACCP.
Appropriate Environmental Technology
Development and assessment of water-supply, wastewater, and solid-waste technologies, including their technical and social aspects.
Disease Vector Control
Identification and evaluation of disease vectors and assessment of pesticide resistance.
Environmental Measurements
Field measurement of noise, lighting, temperature, and other physical environmental parameters.
