Determine lead level in blood that pre result of express method

Abstract

Objective: 1.Determination of the lead in the blood of employees in different working conditions. Result: Adopt an express method for determining lead in peripheral blood. Overall, 23 people aged between 22-52 participated in our study of Express Method for Determining Lead in Peripheral Blood (SOP 08: 2018). Among them, 18 participants were male and composed 78.3% of all participants, remaining 5 females made up the 21.7%. 11 out of all participants were mine operators (47.8%), average 10.07 μg/dl, while 12 were people working hazardous conditions (52.2%), average 15.07 μg/dl,, the one result that exceeded the instruments highest detection limit was estimated as 66 μg / dl, and the results less than the lowest limit was indicated to be half of that limit value of 3.3 μl / dL (1.65 μs / dL). We compared the blood lead levels of 23 individuals to the US CDC blood lead reference value (≤10 μg / dL). Shows that 6 of the 11 mining operators, or 54.4%, had the exposure to poisoning at some level (maximum value 29.90 mcg / dl). On the other hand, 3 out of 12 workers in hazardous and / or hazardous working conditions (25%) show relatively high levels of lead in the blood (maximum value of 66 μg / dL). According to the results of the study, the average blood lead level of people working in hazardous conditions was two times higher than that of the mining workers, which could be due to factors such as work environment, occupational safety and health. Conclusion: The average lead level in the blood of 23 tested individuals was 12.57 μg / dL, slightly higher than the US CDC blood lead reference value of slightly below 10 μg / dL. Among the 23 surveyed workers, 6 of the 11 mining operators, or 54.4%, average 10.07 μg/dl had the exposure to poisoning at some level (maximum value 29.90 mcg / dl). On the other hand, 3 out of 12 workers in hazardous and / or hazardous working conditions (25%), average 15.07 μg/dl show relatively high levels of lead in the blood (maximum value of 66 μg / dL) Average lead level in the blood of workers in hazardous, who works in hazardous working conditions was higher than in blood of mining operators by 5 μg/dl
