Gas Exposure

Chronic exposure to nitrogen dioxide in rodents has shown that injury reaches a maximum after 24 hours, and a reparative adaptive phase follows (1). Damage occurring in the terminal bronchioles and proximal portions of the alveolar ducts in rats has been extensively studied by both light and electron microscopy (1).The present study was undertaken to compare the response of lung tissue to intermittent exposure to 10 ppm of nitrogen dioxide gas for 4 hours per week, while the hamsters were on a vitamin A deficient diet. Ultrastructural observations made from lung tissues obtained from non-gas exposed, hypovitaminosis A animals and gas exposed animals fed a regular commercially prepared diet have been compared to elucidate the specific effect of vitamin A on nitrogen dioxide gas exposure. The interaction occurring between vitamin A and nitrogen dioxide gas has not previously been investigated.

Power Enterprise

The coefficients of danger to health of 84 workers of 4 lowering stations of the power enterprise from inhalation influence of pollutants of motor transport are calculated: nitrogen dioxide, dust, aerosols of mineral oils and hydrocarbons. The risk of combined effects of chemicals on the target organs was determined by an increase in the chance of respiratory diseases by 1.77 times.
