| Abstract |
Results of studies on 40 male and female workers (aged 20-50 years) who had worked between a few months and 5 years in zineb fungicide production. Prolonged exposure to zineb leads to deterioration in the phagocytic activity of polynuclear neutrophils and alkaline phosphatase activity, a reduction in the lysozyme levels and inhibition of cytochrome oxidase and peroxidase activity. The degree of change depends on exposure duration and the functional status of the hepatobiliary system. |
