| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
According to WHO, approximately 230,000 people annually die mainly from lead (Pb) poisoning derived from mineral deposits and affect the intellectual development of more than 600,000 children, but useful methods for estimating pollution sources have not been established. In this study, we aimed to elucidate useful livestock and poultry species for source estimation of Pb contamination. From the high precision lead isotope ratio analysis, it was revealed that it is possible to estimate the source of Pb contamination by using goats and chickens distributed in developing countries including Africa and also used as human food sources. Local distribution of Pb in mice was analyzed by LA-ICP-MS (laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry). High Pb accumulation in the hippocampus area of the brain and Pb accumulation at a higher concentration than in the cortex than the medulla of the kidney was revealed.
