[Microflora as a risk factor for workers in the manufacture of mixed feeds].
Microbial contamination of the industrial environment was studied at the animal-feed factories in Ukraine. Microorganisms and microscopic fungi are detectable in the air of production areas in concentrations appreciably exceeding MPL (50,000/m3 of air). The microscopic fungi group is represented by a wide range of potentially harmful strains, a great many of which fungi are producers of mycotoxins. The above industrial conditions can exert an adverse effect on the organism of workers and serve as a risk factor for the health of people.
