Abstract
A retrospective study was performed by evaluating time course changes in blood Pb and Zn protoporphyrin concentrations in 240 industrial Pb workers. There was a difference in rate of change and plateau state for 2 parameters. Difference in time course in these parameters indicated that both should be monitored in workers to estimate the accumulation of Pb and metabolic response to body burden.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
