  • Title: [Characteristics of mine aerosol and occupational pulmonary diseases in highly-mechanized mine workers].
    Author: Chebotarev AG, Gibadulina IIu.
    Journal: Med Tr Prom Ekol; 2009; (7):7-12. PubMed ID: 19715218.
    Abstract:
    The article contains evaluation of physical and chemical properties of mine aerosol in mines using self-propelled diesel devices, information on the aerosol and exhaust gases components concentrations in the workplace air. Dispersed phase of the aerosol is presented by mineral and organic components, mineral and soot particles absorb gaseous exhaust components. Feature of occupational pulmonary diseases in highly-mechanized mine workers is toxic dust affection of bronchi, mostly with asthmatic course and chronic obstructive type of respiratory dysfunction, relatively short-term disease development.
