1992년 3월 한 달 동안 대구시와 경상북도 경주군 감포읍에 위치한 국민학교 각 1개교 1, 2, 3학년 학생 268명(남자 : 136명, 여자 : 132명)을 대상으로 거주지역 및 그 외 관련 인자에 따른 두발중 연농도를 조사하였다. 국민학생들의 성, 연령, 부모의 직업과 흡연력, 두발 세척제의 종류, 손톱을 깨무는 버릇 및 의복과 손의 청결 상태를 조사하였고, 두발중 연농도를 flameless furnace atomizer가 부착된 atomic absorption spectrophotometer를 이용하여 측정하였다. 대구지역 거주학생의 평균 두발중 연농도는
This study was conducted to explore the feasibility of using the lead level in the hair of children as a screening test for lead intoxication of children and as an indicator for environmental pollution. Lead concentration of hair was measured for 268 seven to nine-year-old elementary school children in Taegu city (147 children) and Gampo town(121 children). The lead level in hair was measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometer equipped with a graphite furnace atomizer. The following information was obtained for all children: sex, age, father's occupation and smoking habits, kinds of hair cleaner, fingernail biting habits, and status of the child's hands and clothing. The mean lead level in hair was
