Abstract

Boron is an essential element in relation to underground resources, with Turkey possessing 73.5 per cent of the global boron reserves. Its prevalence in the field of industry has made it the subject of research in the field of health in recent years. There is a very thin boundary between deficiency and toxicity. Its mechanisms in living organisms are not fully understood, therefore, sufficient and complete and consistent data on human and ecosystem health and its place and dose in these areas have not been reached, and data are needed to maintain and increase its importance and necessity in these areas. The amount and duration of boron exposure may increase in boron fields. This is because boron can be found in air, soil and water. This study investigates the changes in boron levels in living organisms as a function of the distance of boron exposure. Statistically significant differences in serum boron, urea, creatinine and BUN levels were observed between different locations. In parallel, statistically significant differences were also observed between some haemogram parameters. The data obtained are valuable with regard to the possible interaction between boron exposure distance and serum boron levels.
