Abstract
Lead was measured by atomic absorption spectrometry in the hair of a random sample of the population of the Republic of Panama. Age, sex, and place of residence were found to influence the lead concentration of hair. Lead concentration increased in a rural-urban gradient, with females having higher concentrations than males. Awareness of these factors will increase the utility of hair as 2 biopsy material in the assessment of environmental exposure.
