摘要:Erythrocyte deformability was measured by viscometry for 45 male workers at a lead refinery and 26 male university teachers. A decrease in erythrocyte deformability was for the lead workers with the difference being significant between the group of lead workers with blood lead of 60μg/100g and the teachers. There was also a significant correlation between erythrocyte deformability and lead exposure indices such as blood lead, urinary lead and urinary delta-aminolevulinic acid for the group of lead workers.
