This Book will be a very helpful tool to understand the Blood Lead Levels and its relation with various biochemical activities of Humans in general and children in particular. Widespread use of Pb has caused extensive environmental contamination and health problems in many parts of the world. Lead is a cumulative toxicant that affects multiple body systems, including the neurological, hematological, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular and renal systems. Acute exposures may cause gastrointestinal disturbances (anorexia, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain), hepatic and renal damage, hypertension and neurological effects (malaise, drowsiness, encephalopathy) that may lead to convulsions and death while chronic exposure commonly causes haematological effects, such as anaemia, or neurological disturbances, including headache, irritability, lethargy, convulsions, muscle weakness, ataxia, tremors and paralysis. So with the help of practical case studies, this book is an attempt to understand various effects of BLL in the development, survival and growth of children. For young scientists, this book will be good means to understand the biochemistry of Pb in children and its detrimental effects.
