Lead, a systemic toxicant affecting virtually every organ system, primarily affects the central
nervous system, particularly the developing brain. Consequently, children are at a greater …

Lead is a ubiquitous toxic heavy metal with unique physical and chemical properties that
make it suitable for a great variety of applications. Because of its high persistence in the …

This study was designed to assess genotoxic damage in somatic cells of workers in a Polish
battery plant after high-level occupational exposure to lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd), by use …

The battery industry is the largest consumer of lead, using an estimated 80% of the global
lead production. The industry is also rapidly expanding in emerging market countries. A …

Lead (Pb) is a widely used heavy metal with a broad industrial usage. Nevertheless, Pb is a
serious public health issue as it is one of the most widespread environmental and industrial …

Lead (Pb) is a ubiquitous and toxic metal. Secondary Pb recovery unit workers are prone to
possible occupational Pb exposure. Hence, this investigation was conducted to assess the …

There are many discrepancies among the results of studies on the genotoxicity of lead. The
aim of the study was to explore lead-induced DNA damage, including oxidative damage, in …

We have evaluated current knowledge on relations between environmental and
occupational exposure to lead with a strong emphasis on cardiovascular disease risk …

Studies suggest that chronic lead (Pb) exposure may induce deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)
damage. However, there is no synthesised evidence in this regard. We systematically …

Background The present investigation of genotoxicity of lead (Pb) among workers exposed
to inorganic Pb environment, which appears to be first of its kind in South India, was …
