Abstract:
In workers of the cooking plant the resting metabolism of peripheral blood neutrophils has been evaluated. The nitrotetrazolium blue reduction has been used for evaluation of above phenomenon. Simultaneously analogous investigations have been performed in properly selected control group. It has been stated that the cooking plant environment represents a strong stimulator of the neutrophil resting metabolism as seen by significant increase of the formazan-positive cells when compared with that in the control group.
