Investigation of hazardous chemicals exposure on some liver function enzymes using serum and saliva of Iraqi's students

Abstract

To investigate the potential relevance between health problems and working environment conditions in chemical labs, liver enzymes were examined in both sera and saliva of student volunteers, during the last 15 days of September at which they probably exposed to various chemicals over three months in the Iraqi Chemistry Department. The results showed that there was no significant difference in serum activity for both AST and ALP, however, a significant increase in serum ALT level of Z =-2.355 (p < 0.019), before
