The range of blood lead concentrations was 4 to 45 ‘g/dl, with an average value of 15.6 ‘g/dl (DE= 7.0), and a geometric mean of 14.2 ‘g/dl (IC95%= 11.9-16.5). Seventy six percent of the children presented blood lead concentrations of over 10 ‘g/dl. The main predictors of blood lead levels were the use of glazed pottery for cooking rice (ANOVA, p= 0.0000) and the storage of food in glazed pottery (t-test, p= 0.005). There was a significant association between the use of glazed pottery for cooking rice and blood lead concentrations (tendency p= 0.000).
