4.2.3 Dermal absorption
Dermal absorption of inorganic lead compounds is negligible (ATSDR 2007, US EPA
2006). Few studies have provided quantitative estimates of dermal absorption of
inorganic lead in either humans or animals. Those that have been conducted
consistently show the absorption to be negligible for both soluble and insoluble
lead compounds.
