Abstract |
Medical and biological examinations in 33 women microsoldering lead-tin alloy printed circuits are reported. Lead absorption was moderate, except in one case with a blood lead level above 40µg/100ml. Mean blood lead values were higher than in a control group, and periodical controls suitable for jobs involving relatively low exposure are recommended. |
