The CDC website is always a good source for research on health hazards from chemicals,lead, etc.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead

The ADSTR link at the bottom of this info also is a great place for environmental study info as to affects on humans.

Red lead properties:

red lead, bright red to orange-red powder, also called minium, that is used in the manufacture of storage batteries, lead glass, and red pigments; a paint made with red lead is commonly used to protect iron and steel from rusting. Chemically, red lead is lead tetroxide, Pb₃O₄, a water-insoluble compound that is prepared by the oxidation of metallic lead or of litharge (lead monoxide); the commercial product sometimes contains litharge as an impurity.

(Source Columbia Encyclopedia)

Also lead discussion popped up in two older hadit posts.

Thank you Bertha for those links,,

I wish I could say yes, and give you one. I too might need one for my claim..

I have a claim in appeals from chmical poising from fuels, which contained lead. My VSO is also helping look for info. I had an occupational Specialist Doctor which specializes in ptro chemicals, and thoser that include (and inlcuded lead in the past..) exam me and my records and do an IME/IMO and also inlcuded is info on lead, and that tests could be used.

but, I see tohers have a links for you (us), and others do look.

The USAF never offered lead tests for vets who worked with lead..
