Abstract:
To study influence of chrysotile-asbestos dust on health of asbestos production workers, the authors conducted biochemical study of serum lipids peroxidation in workers of mining transport enterprise and ore-dressing complex, in accordance with length of service. According to comparative analysis of the resuts obtained, the workers of mining transport enterprise and ore-dressing complex demonstrate more active lipid peroxidation with longer length of service, more pronounced in ore-dressing complex workers.

Toxic Reactions: Overview
4.0K
When toxic substances penetrate the human body, they disseminate to various tissues, undergoing metabolic changes. This process yields reactive metabolites that may covalently bind with specific target molecules, resulting in toxicity.
Toxicity falls into two primary categories: local and systemic.
Local toxicity appears at the exposure site, such as protein denaturation caused by caustic substances.
In contrast, systemic toxicity requires the toxic agent's absorption and distribution,...
