Abstract

Tooth lead levels have been measured in 109 children living in Glasgow. A significant association has been demonstrated between molar tooth lead concentrations and domestic drinking water lead concentrations. Tooth lead concentrations were found to be greater the longer a child had liver in older housing with lead plumbing during foetal life and following birth. Tooth lead concentrations were also found to be age-related although no difference with respect to social class could be found.

摘要

已对居住在格拉斯哥的109名儿童的牙齿铅含量进行了测量。研究表明，磨牙的铅浓度与家庭饮用水中的铅浓度之间存在显著关联。研究发现，儿童在胎儿期和出生后居住在有铅管道的旧住房中时间越长，其牙齿中的铅浓度就越高。牙齿铅浓度也与年龄有关，不过在社会阶层方面未发现差异。
