On the basis of the determination of zincprotoporphyrin and blood lead levels in 290 subjects working in various industrial and service branches, not occupationally exposed to lead risk, reference values of erythrocytary zincprotoporphyrin are calculated (mean value 16.8 micrograms/dl, upper limit 32.4 micrograms/dl) and proposed to be adopted in biological monitoring of lead exposure.
