Reliable evaluation of the potential for human exposure to lead depends in part on the reliability of supporting analytical data from environmental samples and biological specimens. In reviewing data on lead levels monitored or estimated in the environment, it should also be noted that the amount of chemical identified analytically is not necessarily equivalent to the amount that is bioavailable.

Biological monitoring of urinary fluoride concentration provides an indication of total fluoride intake. Data indicate that a postshift urinary fluoride level of less than 8 mg/1, averaged over an extended period of time, will not lead to osteosclerosis, although a minimal or questionable increase in bone density might develop after many years of occupational exposure. ...

Education can effectively minimize exposure to hazardous substances. Information and training has been provided to health care providers in Palmerton, Pennsylvania, concerning biological monitoring and potential adverse health effects in people exposed to lead and cadmium. The general public also has been advised about potential adverse health effects associated with exposure to lead and cadmium. [Pg.80]
