Abstract

One thousand five hundred fifty urine samples and 1,295 blood samples, collected from 919 workers, were analyzed for cadmium (Cd). The workers were employed at 16 different types of workplaces. In about 7.5% of the samples, the concentration of Cd exceeded the biological limit values proposed by the Dutch Expert Committee for Occupational Standards. Levels higher than these values were measured in both urine samples and blood samples of workers involved in electrochemical plating, in production of Cd-stabilizers and enamels, and in soldering with silver-cadmium solder. Significantly higher concentrations of beta 2-microglobulin (MG) were found in urine samples with CdU greater than 10 micrograms/g creatinine. Cd levels in urine increased with age.
