The cheletable part of lead body burden was measured in 32 workers and seven office workers after an infusion test with CaNa2EDTA. The workers had been exposed to lead at a lead and zinc processing unit for one to three years (mean one year). There was good correlation (r = 0.87) between blood lead and chelatable urinary lead excretion described by the equation y = 0.07 . 10(0.46.x). From this equation it can be predicted that the generally accepted limit value for chelatable urinary lead excretion, 0.42 mumol/mmol CaNa2EDTA administered per 24 hours (3.1 mumol/24 hours or 650 micrograms/24 hours), corresponds to a blood lead concentration (PbB) of 1.7 mumol/l (or 35 micrograms/100 ml), which is lower than the commonly accepted limit value of 2.9 mumol/l (or 60 micrograms/100 ml) for occupationally lead-exposed persons. There was a better correlation between the cheletable lead excretion and the urinary ALA-excretion (r = 0.45; p less than 0.001) than between PbB and the urinary ALA-excretion (r = 0.26; p greater than 0.05).
