Results The mean lead level of children was 48.79 μg/L with 1.03% of those ≥100 μg/L.The blood lead level in preschool children was higher than scattered children aged 0~3 years and there was significant difference between them(P<0.01).The investigation indicated that mother's job related to lead, family living in environment near to arterial road and children anorexia were risk factors for higher blood lead level.
