Variation in element concentrations in human blood

Abstract EN

Using instrumental fast neutron activation analysis INAA, the variation in the human blood levels of CI, N, fe and p are investigation 7 persons suffering from blood cancer (ALL) and compared to 27 persons in normal health state.

At present, a large amount of data on the variation of the concentration of certain elements in human blood in relation with various diseases is available.

This work shows that there is a good indication for elemental deficiency in patients compared with the healthy individuals.

For patients, the Fe level is reduced by 18.7%, the levels of N, P.

and CI appear to be unaffected or the changes are within the precision of the elemental determinations.
