Lead analysis of house dust: a method for the detection of another source of lead exposure in inner city children.

J J Vostal, F Taves, J W Sayre, E Charney.   

Abstract

A method has been developed to test the hypothesis that lead-containing house dust is responsible for the elevated levels of lead in blood of inner city children. Dust analyses of smears from the floors, walls, and windowsills in low-income inner city dwellings have shown a median concentration of lead five times as high in suburban homes. It is suggested that lead-containing dust may be one of the most important environmental sources of increased lead exposure in this specific population group.
