Abstract

Human exposure to lead occurs through various sources like lead based paints, battery recycling, lead containing pipes or lead-based solder in water supply systems, industrial processes such as lead smelting and coal combustion, grids and bearings, etc.. Lead is concerned to a broad range of physiological, biochemical and behavioral malfunctions. There are a number of reports and literature, which reflect initiates oxidative damage to heart, kidney, reproductive organs, brain and erythrocytes. But, there are very few reports revealing association between iron intake and environmental lead exposure during pregnancy. Therefore, the present ‘Editorial’ is focused at current research pertaining to the effect of iron and folate supplementation on biochemical modulation of definite lead toxicity markers linked with pregnancy
