The lead interference on the immunological activity is the aim of this survey. Therefore, it was examined the phagocytic function of the PMN cells on a group of 20 subjects occupationally exposed to the toxic and on 20 other assigned to the control group using the chemoluminescent assay. In both groups it was determined the biologicals parameters of exposure to the toxic. It was evident a statistically significant decrease of the average values in the exposed group compared to the control group, even if it wasn't directly correlated with the exposure biological indicators.

Abstract

The lead interference on the immunological activity is the aim of this survey. Therefore, it was examined the phagocytic function of the PMN cells on a group of 20 subjects occupationally exposed to the toxic and on 20 other assigned to the control group using the chemoluminescent assay. In both groups it was determined the biologicals parameters of exposure to the toxic. It was evident a statistically significant decrease of the average values in the exposed group compared to the control group, even if it wasn't directly correlated with the exposure biological indicators.
