Description

An instrumental neutron activation method for determining 17 elements in human whole blood of the inhabitants of Uzbekistan was developed. 2790 blood samples were analyzed. Statistical processing of the results was done by computer. Mean concentration values were calculated and plotted for the whole region. Correlation between the element contents and various parameters (sex, age, residence, ethnic group, working conditions, haemoglobin content, Rh, sampling time) was found. This fact is proposed to be considered in the study of various pathologies and the environmental impact on human health. (author) 3 refs.; 7 figs
