Abstract:
Under the action of hexachlorcyclogexan in concentration not exceeding the pesticides residues in food staffs the prominent adaptive mechanisms stress of gematoalveolar barier is seen. However, the adaptation has the extensive character and is caused by increase of alveolar monocytes in broncho-alveolar lavage. The phagocytosis functional reservers exceed the control values, but phagocytes activity and phagocytory index remain decreased and reach norms just after the xenobiotic abolition.
