Abstract
The number of stippled erythrocytes in the blood of lead workers counted under dark ground microscopy show a marked fall when blood is taken into an anticoagulant. The significance of this finding is studied and alternative methods of screening workers are examined.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
