Preliminary studies on the distribution of stable Pb and Pb-210 in the maternal and fetal portions of human placentas
Abstract: Fetal growth and survival are solely dependent on the placenta, making thecharacterization of toxic elements in this tissue crucial for understanding exposure duringpregnancy. Stable lead (Pb) and Pb-210 are toxic elements of particular interest in thiscontext. Stable Pb has been linked to developmental changes in children, while Pb-210, abeta-emitting Leia mais…
