对英国粉尘和土壤中的金属进行的一项调查证实了广泛存在的铅污染，花园土壤表面（0-5厘米）的铅几何平均值为266 μ g/g，室内粉尘中的铅几何平均值为561 μ g/g（不包括旧矿区）。随后对伯明翰97户有2岁儿童的家庭进行的详细调查显示，当两个变量都在英国的正常范围内时，家庭环境中的粉尘铅负荷是幼儿血铅浓度的重要预测指标。估计幼儿的总铅摄入量为36 μ g/天，其中1 μ g通过吸入，35 μ g通过摄入。
A survey of metals in United Kingdom dusts and soils has confirmed widespread lead contamination with a geometric mean value for lead in surface (0-5 cm) garden soils of 266-mu-g/g and in housedusts of 561-mu-g/g (excluding old mining areas). A subsequent detailed survey of 97 householders in Birmingham with 2-year-old children showed dust lead loading in the home environment to be an important predictor of blood lead concentrations in young children, when both variables fell within the normal range for the U.K. The total estimated lead uptake by the young child was 36-mu-g/day of which 1-mu-g was by inhalation and 35-mu-g by ingestion.
