Title The lead hazard of frit in the ceramics industry.
Bibliographic information Aug. 1976, Vol.27, No.2, p.141-159. Illus. 20 ref.
Abstract Results of this study: the in vitro solubility in serum of the lead contained in frit was low; the acute toxicity of frit was low in mice and rats; weekly intraperitoneal injections of frit for 15 weeks caused distinct symptoms of lead poisoning in rabbits. The toxicity seemed to be similar to that of soluble lead such as lead acetate.
