In the present study, an attempt was made to study the levels of platinum (Pt), palladium (Pd), and rhodium (Rh) in respirable suspended particulate matter samples and respective blood samples of occupationally exposed traffic personnel in selected sites of Hyderabad city. The maximum concentration of platinum group elements in air dust samples of Hyderabad city were as follows: Pt = 1,416 µg/m(3), Pd = 1,024 µg/m(3), and Rh = 1,352 µg/m(3). The blood samples of occupationally exposed personnel of Hyderabad city showed Pt as high as 6.65, Pd as high as 2.15, and Rh as high as 4.95 µg/l. The results showed an important aspect of bioaccumulation tendency of these metals with increase in age and years of occupational exposure.
