Abstract
Blood lead levels of a segment of the population in Ibadan were determined using atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Mean blood lead levels of 11.4 μg/dl and 12.3 μg/dl were recorded for females and males, respectively. Tap water lead levels at various locations in the city were < 5 μg/l.
