title: [Pollinosis in chrysanthemum growers].
abstract: Pollinosis, first of all mugwort pollinosis, due to pollens of wind pollinated Asteraceae is not seldom. On the other hand allergic reactions to pollens of insect pollinated members of this plant family are a rarity. 8 cases of pollinosis to Chrysanthemums in a floriculture farm are offered, caused by the work specific conditions of exposure in artificial pollination. The analysis of allergens and RAST inhibition tests showed us a close relationship of allergens of Chrysanthemum pollens and pollens of mugwort. It was possible to continue cultivating work in all cases because of several protective measures and hyposensitization.
