title: [Staphylococcal contamination of the upper respiratory tract mucosa in children exposed to air pollution].
abstract: The carriership of staphylococci, specifically, of the resident type, is highly prevalent among children living near gas industry plants. The authors characterize the relationships of the level of resident staphylococcal carriership in children with the intensity of chemical pollution of the atmosphere and with the incidence of respiratory diseases. They estimate the gradations of coefficients of resident carriership of staphylococci corresponding to certain levels of air pollution, which served the basis for spatial microbiological monitoring of atmospheric contamination in regions with gas industry plants.
