OF: 3ound Brook - January 5. 1972 Distribution List COPY TO: SUBJECT: REFERENCE: LEAD CHELATING AGENTS I contacted Grow Chemical to learn more abou.t the EDTA-BAL complexes which are being evaluated as a way of preventing the retention of lead by the body. The project is in the research stage. Not much in the way of usable results will be available for a year or more. Currently, baboons are being fed lead compounds along with the EDTA-BAL complexes to establish some quantitative relation ships among absorbed lead and excreted lead as a function of complex concentration. Mrs. Fisher at Grow was confident that the project is prom ising. gew Distribution List J. Bennett W. Berry R. Felter G. Manolakis H. McKenzie H. Sager J. Smith A. M.
