Evaluation of passive avoidance learning and spatial memory in rats exposed to low levels of lead during specific periods of early brain development

Objectives: Widespread use of heavy metal lead (Pb) for various commercial purposes has resulted in the environmental contamination caused by this metal. The studies have shown a definite relationship between low level lead exposure during early brain development and deficit in children’s cognitive...
