| dc.description.abstract | In developing countries like India, the occupational exposure to lead still persists in the unorganised small-scale workshops. The workers are unaware of the toxic effects of lead exposure. We studied 30 automobile workers exposed to lead for periods from 2-15 years and normal healthy control subjects (N=30) who were non-occupationally exposed to lead from Bijapur, North Karnataka, India. Venous blood and urine samples were collected from both groups. The blood lead (PbB) 364%, p<0.001 and urinary lead (PbU) 176%, P<0.001 levels were significantly increased in these workers as compared to the control. | en_US |
