[Medical prophylaxis of occupational intoxication in polyvinyl chloride industry].

The study covered clinical and laboratory findings, immunity parameters in 103 workers of polymer compounds production. The individuals exposed to chlorine organic chemicals: mercuric vapors, gaseous chlorine demonstrate specific changes of metabolic parameters. The data on protein synthesis, monooxygenases activity, lipid metabolism, state of membranes (lipoprotein complex, peroxidases, ALa-AT, Asp-AT), immune activity enabled to design prophylactic measures.

[The immune reactivity characteristics of persons engaged in the manufacture of protein-vitamin concentrates].

Immunologic studies in 130 protein-vitamin concentrate production workers of Angarsk showed the characteristic changes in clinically healthy individuals, suffering from allergic conditions. The changes are: increased levels of T lymphocytes, T killers, T helpers, B lymphocytes, decreased levels of T suppressors and IgA. Immunologic reactivity predisposing to allergic conditions and chronic course of inflammations was found to appear in the workers engaged in protein-vitamin concentrate production.
