    Notes: Summary A study has been performed in 148 non occupationally exposed subjects (19–21 yrs) divided into three groups: males, females without and females using oral contraceptives. PbB-levels ranged from 46 to 238 ppb. Freeerythrocyte-porphyrins (FEP), serum iron (Fe-S), Hb, Ht, total iron-bindingcapacity and unsaturated-iron-binding-capacity were measured. A negative correlation was found between PbB and Fe-S in males only. In females FEP was higher than in males at same PbB-levels. Females using oral contraceptives had higher Fe-S-levels and total-iron-binding-capacity than females not taking these; no difference was found between individual preparations. Two hypotheses are suggested to explain the negative relationship between lead in blood and serum iron in males. In a study of 51 other male subjects, 19-21 yrs, again a negative trend for Fe-S with increasing PbB was observed; the pooled data showed a negative relation; there was no difference in morning and afternoon Fe-S levels.

    Notes: Summary In 108 two-and three-year-old children the concentration of lead, cadmium, manganese, and zinc in blood, of free erythrocyte porphyrin in erythrocytes, and of haemoglobin and haematocrit were measured. The relation with distance of residence to a secondary smelter and with socio-economic class was studied. The ranges were for PbB 45–383 ppb, CdB 0.2–3.5 ppb, ZnB 2.0–9.7 ppm, MnB 2.7–14.1 ppb, FEP 10.5–138.9 μg/100 ml rbc. PbB was influenced independently by the distance to the source of emission and by the socioeconomic class. FEP increased with PbB; Hb and Ht were not affected. The results suggest that the Biological Quality Guide for blood lead as adopted in the European Community may have to be lowered for young children.
