[Immune reactivity indices of workers in the manufacture of viscose].
A total of 300 workers engaged in viscose industry were examined for leukocyte blast transformation, spontaneous and complement rosette-formation, blood serum immunoglobulins, bactericidal activity of blood serum, lysozyme titre, phagocytic activity of neutrophils, and the NBT test. The data obtained attest to the changes in the total nonspecific body responsiveness of the workers examined. The character and degree of the changes in cellular and humoral immunity were marked by cycles, depending on the workers' record. The changes in the total nonspecific responsiveness were found to persist for a long time even after discontinuation of the contact with carbon disulfide.
