title: [Occupational dermatitis in workers of the building materials' factory].
abstract: 159 workers of the Building Units Factory have been subject to dermatological examinations. The oil acne was the most common occupational dermatosis found. About 76% (61%--92%) of workers developed this type of dermatosis. The prevalence of acne was found to be associated with the workplace exposing the workers to antiadhesic oil--separbet. This high rate of dermatoses resulted from considerable acnogenic properties of oil, lack of prophylaxis and unsatisfactory sanitary conditions in the factory. for 3 workers afflicted with contact eczema tests with the standard set and separbet were prepared. In two cases (1.2%) positive reactions to potassium bichromate proved occupational origin of eczema. 26 persons (16.3%) developed interdigital mycosis of feet, 8 (5%)--onychomycosis. Other dermatoses occurred in single cases.
