title: Longitudinal measurements of the cadmium burden of 'jig solderers' using IVNAA.
abstract: The liver and kidney cadmium burdens of a population of 10 'jig solderers' were measured in 1983 and 1995 using similar IVNAA measuring systems. Cadmium exposure ceased in 1985. No significant variation in kidney content was observed. The mean body burden had fallen by 18%, due to a decrease of mean liver content of 35%.
