토양 속에 첨가된 납의 농도가 증가하면 애기장대 식물체 내에 축적된 납의 농도도 증가하였는데, 특히 오염물질 배출기준농도보다 50배 높은 납이 첨가된 토양에서 생장한 식물체내에 축적된 납 농도는 정상식물보다 약 2.6배 증가하였다. 이러한 결과는 토양 속에 오염된 납은 식물의 줄기나 일보다는 뿌리에 더 많이 축적되며, 줄기와 잎에 축적되는 납농도는 토양 속에 오염된 납 농도에 비례하여 증가하지 않으나 뿌리에서는 농도에 비례하여 매우 증가하였음을 나타내고 있다.

4개 업종(축전지제조업, 광명단 제조업, 2차 제련업, 라디에타 제조업)에서 근무하는 총 100명의 근로자를 대상으로 8단계다단충돌기(eight stages personal cascade imparter)에 의한 입자 크기 별 납농도를 측정하였다 크기 별 납 농도는 총납(PbA), 흡입성납(IPM-PbA), 흉곽성납(TPM-PbA), 호흡성납(RPM-PbA), $1{\mu}m$ 미만의 납$(Pb_{1\mu})$ 그리고 $1{\mu}m$ 이상의 소화성납$(Pb_{ing})$이었다. 동일한 근로자(100명)를 대상으로 혈액에서 납농도를 측정하였다. 혈액 중 납은 원자흡광광도계(atomic absorption spectrometry)의 Zeeman effect graphite furnace를 이용하여 분석하였다. 총 납의 노출농도는 노출기준$(50\;ug/m^3)$을 크게 초과하였다. 평균 호흡성 납 노출농도$(115.7\;ug/m^3)$ 총 납의 노출기준을 훨씬 초과하였다. $1{\mu}m$미만의 납$(Pb_{1\mu})$ 노출농도의 범위는 0.7에서 $(492.2\;ug/m^3)$이나 되었다. 근로자의 $46\%$가 혈액 중 납 농도 40 ug/dL을 초과하였다. 60 ug/dL을 초과한 경우도 $13\%$나 되었다. 입자 크기가 큰 납인 총납, 흡입성 납 그리고 호흡성 납 농도는 혈액 중 납 농도와 유의한 상관을 보였다(p<0.0001). 그러나 가장 높은 상관은 $1{\mu}m$미만의 납$(Pb_{1\mu})$ 혈액 중 납과의 관계였다. T-test에서 $50ug/m^3$이상의 호흡성 납을 나타낸 근로자 그룹과 $50ug/m^3$ 이하의 근로자 그룹간에의 혈액 중 납 농도는 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다(p=0.000). 이러한 연구결과는 입자크기 구분이 없는 현재의 총납에 의한 노출기준과 측정방법은 미세 납 먼지에 노출되는 근로자의 납흡수를 보호하는데 한계점이 있다는 것을 의미한다. 향후 납 입자크기는 물론 근로자의 개인적인 위생과 작업내용 등을 변수로 납 흡수에 영향을 미치는 종합적인 요인을 찾아내는 연구를 진행할 필요가 있다.

This study was to examine the accumulated concentration of lead in the organ of Arabidopsis thaliana grown in the soil added three different concentrations of lead. The accumulated concentrations of lead in the stem of plant grown in the soil added official standard concentration of lead of pollutant exhaust notified by the Ministry of Environment (1 mg/l), concentration ten times higher than the official standard concentration (10 mg/l) and concentration fifty times higher (50 mg/l) were similar to the rate of increase between three different concentrations, and increased average 24% compared with normal plant stem. The accumulated concentrations of lead in the leaf of plant grown in the soil added three different concentrations of lead were increased average 57% compared with normal plant leaf. And accumulated concentrations of lead in the leaf was no significant difference according to increase of lead concentration added in the soil as stem, the rate of increase was similar to between three different concentrations. The accumulated concentrations of lead in the root of plant grown in the soil added official standard concentration of lead of pollutant exhaust and concentration ten times higher were increased average 114% compared with normal plant root, but increased about 861% in the concentration fifty times higher than the official standard concentration. This result contrast with the data of stem and leaf. The accumulated concentration of lead in the plant body of Arabidopsis thaliana was increased according to increase of lead concentration added in the soil. Especially, the accumulated concentration of lead in the plant body grown in the concentration fifty times higher than the official standard concentration was increased about 2.6 times than normal plant. These results show that lead contaminated within the soil was more accumulated in the root than the stem or leaf, and accumulated concentrations of lead in the stem and leaf were not increased in proportion to the concentration of lead in the soil, but very increased in proportion to the concentration in the root.

애기장대에 납을 농도별로 처리하였을 때 식물의 생장과 종자 발아에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 환경부고시 오염물질 배출기준치를 기준 농도로 하고 이보다 10배 및 50배 높은 농도의 납을 각각 처리한 애기장대의 줄기생장을 조사한 결과 오염물질 배출기준 농도와 이보다 10배 높은 농도에서는 줄기 생장이 정상식물보다 약 18%정도 감소되었다. 또한 오염물질 배출기준 농도보다 50배 높은 농도를 처리한 식물에서는 정상식물보다 약 41% 줄기생장이 감소하였다. 3가지 농도의 납을 애기장대에 처리한 후 식물의 뿌리 생장을 조사한 결과 오염물질 배출기준농도를 처리한 식물의 뿌리 생장은 정상식물과 거의 유사하였으나 오염물질 배출기준농도의 10배 이상이 되면 뿌리 생장이 전혀 되지 않았다. 3가지 농도의 납을 처리한 배지에서 애기장대의 종자 발아율을 측정한 결과 오염물질 배출기준 농도와 이보다 10배 높은 농도를 처리한 배지에서는 종자 발아율이 100%로 나타나 정상배지에서의 발아율과 차이가 나타나지 않았으나 오염물질 배출기준 농도보다 50배 높은 농도를 처리한 배지에서는 발아율이 0%로 나타나 종자 발아가 전혀 되지 않았다. 이러한 결과는 토양 속에 침적된 납은 애기장대의 생장과 종자 발아에 영향을 미치어 줄기 및 뿌리의 생장을 감소시켰으며, 또한 종자 발아에도 매우 치명적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 생각된다.

A study was carried out to investigate yield, yield components, and change of chemical components in rice plants grown under different concentration of lead compound in nutrient solution of sandy culture. The results obtained are as follows. 1. Increasing lead concentration in culture solutions, pb content in the plant was increased and crop yields were decreased. 2. The critical pb concentration at which yield was declined, was 13.6 ppm. 3. As adding higher concentration of lead in nutrient solutions, concentration of lead in rice plant was significantly increased on leaf blade, and brown rice in pb. 4. Yield loss was closely related to pb content in leaf blade.

This paper investigates the association of among alcohol consumption and blood vitamin D and lead concentrations. Subjects to 4,074 with adults over the age of 20 in the 5th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, correlation analysis is used to validate the relations between an average daily alcohol consumption and blood vitamin D and lead concentration, and to study the effects of blood vitamin D to the lead concentration is carried out regression analysis. The correlation analysis shows that alcohol consumption has the correlation with blood vitamin D and lead concentration(p<0.01). As the results of regression analysis, age(p<0.01), education(p<0.01), occupation(p<0.05), alcohol consumption(p<0.01), vitamin D(p<0.05) appear significant influence on lead concentration in male. Alcohol consumption increases not only lead concentration but also vitamin D. Blood vitamin D also contributes to the rise in lead concentration, but in the reverse the metabolic activity of blood vitamin D by influence of lead receives a negative effect in our body.

Lead toxicity was evaluated in forty-five cats on a balanced diet, Treated with 0(control), 10, 100(low), 1, 000, 2, 000, and 4, 000(high) ppm of lead acetate orally on a body weight basis. The objectives were to establish toxic dosage level of leaf in cats, to characterize changes in behavior and clinical pathology, and to demonstrate what blood lead concentrations correlate with the known dosages of lead. Some high dose cats showed projectile vomiting, hyperactivity, and seizures. The growth rates did not appear to be altered in any of the dosed groups. Normal blood lead concentration in cats were lower than that of humans, dogs, and cattle. Blood lead concentrations of 3 to 20$\mu\textrm{g}$/100$m\ell$ could be termed a 'subclinical' range in the cat. Clinical lead toxicity in cats may have blood lead concentrations ranging 20 to 120$\mu\textrm{g}$/100$m\ell$. Zinc protoporphyrin concentrations were proportional to lead dosages and a significant ZPP elevation, greater than 50$\mu\textrm{g}$/100$m\ell$, may be indicative of clinical lead toxicity. The enzyme aminolevulinic acid dehydratase showed an inverss dose response relationship for all lead dosages and a significant ZPP elevation, greater than 50$\mu\textrm{g}$/100$m\ell$, may be indicative of clinical lead toxicity. The enzyme aminolevulinic acid dehydratase showed an inverse dose response relationship for all lead dosages and appears to be a good indicator of lead exposure in cats. Urinary aminolevuliruc acid concentrations generally increased with lead dosage, but individual values varied. Hair lead concentrations rose proportionately to lead dosages. Lead at least in high doses appears to inhibit chemotactic activity of polymorphonuclear cells and monocytes. No consistent dose response relationships were observed in hemoglobin, RBC, WBC, neutrophil, lymphocyte, monocyte, and eosinophil counts. There were no consistent dose related changes in total protein, plasma protein, BUN, and ALT values. Reticulocyte counts did not increase significantly in most lead dosage levels, and are probably of little value in diagnosing lead toxicity in cats. The fact that no significant changes were found in nerve conduction velocities may support that there was no segmental demyelination resulting from lead ingestion. The lethal dose in cats appear to range from 60 to 150mg/kg body weight. A reliable diagnosis of lead poisoning can be made utilizing blood lead, ZPP, and ALAD, and hair lead.

This study examined the relationships between the blood heavy metal (Pb, Hg and Cd) concentration and exposure-related factors. The subjects were 2,042 (male: 953, female: 1,089) who were recruited through a National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Differences in the concentrations of mercury were observed in males, whereas females showed differences in lead and cadmium. Analyses of the blood concentrations according to body mass index and waist circumference showed significantly higher concentrations of mercury. In males, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol of dyslipidemia was higher than normal in the blood lead concentration. In females, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol of dyslipidemia was higher than normal in the blood lead concentration. The blood lead and cadmium concentrations of male smokers was higher than non-smokers, and cadmium showed the same results in females. The blood lead levels were higher in male alcohol consumers than non-drinkers. The blood concentrations of mercury and cadmium showed significant differences according to household income. Blood concentrations of heavy metals were closely related to exposure-related factors, and age, smoking, drinking alcohols, obesity, hyperlipidemia, and household income were found to be relevant.
