Determination of delta aminolevulinic acid levels in urine; a sensitive indicator of lead exposure in construction workers

Determination of delta aminolevulinic acid levels in urine; a sensitive indicator of lead exposure in construction workers

Background: Occupational exposure is a major source for lead poisoning in adults. Lead toxicity disrupts the functions of the digestive system, nervous system, respiratory system, reproductive system, etc. Lead decreases the activity of δ-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase which increases the excretion...
