Fluoride absorption among workers of lamps factors

41 workers exposed to fluoride. and 28 non-exposed workers were studied. No significant difference in mean urinary fluoride level [MUFL] was observed between male and female workers, and between Iraqi and Chinese workers. There was significance difference between the pro and post-shift MUFL. A strong correlation was observed between MUFL and duration of exposure, and also between MUFL. and air fluoride level. It is suggested that MUFL might be considered as a good index of fluoride absorption
