Urinary Amino-acetone Excretion in Lead Workers.
Urinary amino-acetone concentrations were determined in a group of 51 persons with industrial exposure to lead and the findings compared with those obtained from a control group of 27 persons having no exposure to lead.A good correlation was found between delta-aminolaevulinic acid and amino-acetone excretion in the control group but this correlation was not so well defined in the lead-exposed ...
متن کاملUrinary delta aminolaevulinic acid and porphobilinogen in lead-exposed workers.
Of 100 workers exposed to lead in varying degrees, 34 had a urinary delta amino-laevulinic acid (ALA) concentration of above 0-6 mg./100 ml. and a further 35 had an ALA concentration of between 0 3 mg. and 0-6 mg./100 ml. In only 20 of the workers was the urinary porphobilinogen concentration above 0-1 mg./100 ml., two of these being above 0-2 mg./100 ml. No significant correlation was found be...
متن کاملUrinary kallikrein activity of workers exposed to lead.
Two groups of men of different age ranges and with the same period of lead exposure were selected for study in a recently opened car-battery factory. Two other groups of age-matched men, not exposed to heavy metals in their work, were used as controls. Morning urines were collected from control and exposed groups for determination of urinary kallikrein activity, urinary delta-amino-levulinic ac...
متن کاملLead and Female Workers
In adults, high-level lead exposure often occurs in the lead-related industries. Acute lead poisoning has become rare, but chronic exposure to low-level lead remains a public health issue. With recent advances in our understanding of lead toxicity at low-levels, researchers have shifted their focus to studying lead at concentrations below those currently recommended as ‘acceptable’ in worker pr...
متن کاملLead induced increase of blood pressure in female lead workers.
AIMS Although lead exposure has, in the absence of mathematical modelling, been believed to elevate blood pressure in females, it is necessary to clarify the relation between lead and blood pressure by eliminating confounding factors in the analysis. METHODS Blood lead was measured in 193 female workers, including 123 lead exposed workers. Possible confounding factors were controlled by multi...
