[The microflora associated with anatomical embalming as a harmful factor of a working process].

The paper describes the first attempt to isolate and identify the microbiocenosis associated with the objects of a morphological laboratory that uses formalin. The study identified the following microorganisms: the bacteria Bacillus sp., Providencia alcalifaciens, and Staphylococcus aureus, the micromycetes Scopulariopsis brevicaulis, Aspergillus sp.

[Evaluating microcirculation state in eye conjunctiva of machinery construction industry workers].

Studies of microcirculation vessels disorders in workers exposed to occupational physical hazards remain topical problem. The authors studied changes in microcirculatory vessels of conjunctiva, through biomicroscopy and calibrometric angiographic parameters in the examinees, and determined significant changes - narrowed arterioles, RBC aggreggation sites - in the workers with long length of service.

[The eye analyzer in machine-building industry workers according to electrophysiological indices].

To study visual analyzer electrophysiological changes in workers exposed to occupational physical factors remains to be a topical problem. The authors investigated retinal electrosensitivity and optic nerve electrolability and performed electroretinography in this group of workers, which determined significant retinal functional changes typical of retinal metabolic disturbances in workers having a long service.
