I have seen many patients with excessive lead levels. Often they have strange symptoms that have baffled their doctors and specialists, especially neurologists. How do we get exposed? Lead-based paint and the resulting dust and soil contamination is a main source. Other sources of exposure includ...
House and Hand Dust As a Potential Source of Childhood Lead Exposure Blood lead sampling has demonstrated an almost universal low-level elevation in inner-city children. The ingestion of lead paint chips is questioned as the... JW Sayre,EM Charney,J Vostal,... - 《American Journal of Diseas...

The sanding or blow-lamp stripping of old paint is found to be an important source of the higher household dust lead concentrations. Finally, the dust lead-blood lead relationship is used to derive a standard for lead in house dust, as no such standard exists for this exposure route. 展开...
