Setting legislative norms for environmental lead exposure: results of an epidemiological survey in the east of Belgium.

abstract：:A major issue of inhalation toxicity is that of dose. An inhaled dose is more difficult to determine than the dose from other routes of administration. Via oral or parenteral routes, a discrete amount of test substance is given in a bolus. In inhalation toxicology, the delivered dose depends on the exposure concentrat...
