  • Title: [Dynamic surface tension of blood in chronic dust bronchitis in coal mines workers].
    Author: Siniachenko OV, Kazakov VN, Belokon' AM, Shcherbakov KS, Korzh EV, Iakubenko ED.
    Journal: Med Tr Prom Ekol; 2000; (6):6-10. PubMed ID: 10934847.
    Abstract:
    Chronic dust bronchitis in miners is associated with increase in dynamic surface tension of blood at short (t = 0.01 s) and medium (t = 1 s) surface lifetimes with lower declination angle of interphase tensiograms curve. Surface tension disorders were similar to those in experimental dust bronchitis. There are correlations between surface tension parameters and the workers' underground length of service, some mining geologic conditions and serum level of proteous and lipid surfactants.
