- The status of erythrocyte membranes was examined in small doses of lead exposure. It was stated thaterythrocyte electrophoretic mobility was decreased, peroxidation processes were stimulated, antioxidative activity was reduced and it resulted in cholesterol/phospholipids coefficient increase and membranes microviscosity rise. It was suggested to use these indices as an indicator of environmental lead exposure in human organism.
