In 1986, the ambient air for lead in radiator repair shops in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area exceeded the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) action level in nine of 12 shops sampled by Minnesota OSHA. We therefore sought to determine the prevalence of lead exposure/toxicity in this industry. Thirty-five radiator shops were identified, 30 were visited, and 53 workers were studied. The mean blood lead level was 1.53 (range 0.24-2.80). Seventeen individuals had blood lead levels greater than or equal to 1.93 mumol/L (40 micrograms/dl). The mean zinc protoporphyrin level (ZPP) was 0.55 mumol/L (range 0.16-1.43). No single worksite or personal characteristic was a strong determinant of either blood lead or ZPP level.
1986年，明尼阿波利斯-圣保罗大都市地区散热器修理店的环境空气中铅含量，在明尼苏达州职业安全与健康管理局（OSHA）抽检的12家店铺中有9家超过了职业安全与健康管理局的行动水平。因此，我们试图确定该行业铅暴露/中毒的流行情况。我们确定了35家散热器修理店，走访了其中30家，并对53名工人进行了研究。平均血铅水平为1.53（范围0.24 - 2.80）。17人的血铅水平大于或等于1.93微摩尔/升（40微克/分升）。平均锌原卟啉水平（ZPP）为0.55微摩尔/升（范围0.16 - 1.43）。没有单一的工作场所或个人特征是血铅或ZPP水平的强有力决定因素。
