[The diagnosis of allergy to industrial chemical compounds using a method of immunothermistometry].

An evaluation was done in those individuals engaged in the production of detergents, enzymic preparations, electron tubes and measuring instrumentation, using allergologic, laboratory methods and immunothermistometry of blood with allergens obtained from industrial chemical compounds. Feasibility is demonstrated of employing in the diagnosis of chemical allergy the immunothermistometry technique which was found to be superior to the known laboratory immunologic tests.

[Influence of enzyme industry products on the human immune system].

Enzyme industry products had significant allergo- and immunogenic effects on human body, manifesting by allergic dermatitis and respiratory forms of allergy. Most negative effects on immune system had alkaline protease 1 and 2, salizymelipase, neutral protease and protease C. Problems of diagnosis and modernizations of in-plant conditions were discussed.
