Clinical Trial Summary

To investigate whether exposure to Al, Ga, In, As, and Sb induces lipid peroxidation in humans. Whole blood and urine levels of 170 workers were analysed by use of ICP-MS. MDA, the product of lipid peroxidation was determined by HPLC

Description:

If MDA as an index of lipid peroxidation can be induced by these metals. We will suggest reducing exposure to these metals
