| description | The assay of blood samples is a preferred method for monitoring the internal
exposure of radiological and toxicological contaminants in human body. The
objectives of this study were to evaluate the status of uranium (U) radioactivity and
selected heavy metals such as lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd) and iron (Fe) in maternal and
umbilical cord blood samples for normal and deformed infants in Iraq, and the
influence of these elements to the foetus development and to identify predictors of
maternal exposure. Additionally, to assess the interactions between these elements in
the maternal and umbilical cord blood samples. A cross-sectional study was conducted
in three public hospitals (Al-Yarmouk Teaching Hospital, Al-Basrah Maternity and
Children Hospital and Al-Shatra Maternity Hospital). |
