Research Abstract

The present study established the relationship between exposure to indium compounds and exposure biomarkers. Indium concentration in morning urine adjusted by urine creatinine can be used as exposure biomarker instead of serum indium. Hair indiumconcentrations in indium-exposed workers were elevated up 800 μg/g at post-work. No correlation was found between air concentration in the breathing zone and hair concentration.
