| Resumen |
Cadmium concentrations in blood and urine of 12 past and present employees exposed to cadmium were determined. All 6 men who had worked in the production plant for 7 years or more showed signs of renal tubular damage; 2 of them exhibited exertional dyspnoea and pulmonary dysfunction. One had moderated airways obstruction. It is suggested that urinary Cd concentrations should be kept below 15µg/day to avoid the possibility of renal damage. |
