چکیده
Biological materials have gained an irreplaceable position as a bio-indicator for environmental pollution with heavy metals. Human hair and nails come to play important role in this subject according the recommendations by World Health Organization (WHO). The levels of selected toxic metals (Pb, Zn, Cd, Ni) fingernails scalp autoworkers Saudi Arabia were estimated study exposure chemical pollutants samples collected from d

15 صفحه اولRisk Assessment and Implication of Human Exposure to Road Dust Heavy Metals in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
Data dealing with the assessment of heavy metal pollution in road dusts in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia and its implication to human health risk of human exposure to heavy metals, are scarce. Road dusts were collected from five different functional areas (traffic areas (TA), parking areas (PA), residential areas (RA), mixed residential commercial areas (MCRA) and suburban areas (SA)) in Jeddah and one ...
متن کاملLevels of selected heavy metals in black tea varieties consumed in Saudi Arabia.
The metal contents (Fe, Cu, Zn, Mn, Cr, Pb, Ni, Cd, Co) of 17 black tea samples were analyzed by using Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-AES). Among the investigated metals Mn was the highest (1,071.7 microg/g), whereas Pb showed minimum levels (0.30 microg/g). Iron was the second highest element found in black tea samples. Lowest Pb concentration (0.30 microg/g) was ...
متن کاملSerum heavy metals and hemoglobin related compounds in Saudi Arabia firefighters
BACKGROUND Firefighters are frequently exposed to significant concentrations of hazardous materials including heavy metals, aldehydes, hydrogen chloride, dichlorofluoromethane and some particulates. Many of these materials have been implicated in the triggering of several diseases. The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of fire smoke exposure on serum heavy metals and possibl...
متن کاملTrace metals in scalp hair of Greek agricultural workers.
In order to determine "base-line" values of hair metal concentrations in unpolluted, non-industrial areas of Greece, a random sample of 144 agricultural workers (75 males and 69 females) was selected from the Civil Registry of communities of southwest Greece. All subjects were at least 50 years old and had lived in the same community for at least 10 years prior to the investigation. Bulk hair s...
