Zinc aminolevulinic acid dehydratase reactivation index as a tool for diagnosis of lead exposure

The correlation between blood lead level (BLL), δ-aminolevulinate dehydratase (ALA-D) activity, and other common biochemical parameters used to assess a plumbism diagnosis have been carefully analyzed, with the aim of correctly interpreting the data handled in the laboratory. No correlation was obse...
