Abstract
Standard (hemogram, routine biochemical indices) and non-standard hema tological parameters reflecting monocytic-macrophagal system (MMS) fun ction and antioxidant defense were investigated in 140 subjects who ha d worked in radionuclide-contaminated zone after the Chernobyl acciden t. As shown by measurements of iron serum metabolism, lysozyme, total interferon, CIC, chemiluminescence of venous blood mononuclear leukocy tes, MMS in 50% of them underwent negative changes in suppressed antio xidant defense. Standard hematological findings registered abnormaliti es only in 8-27% of the examinees.
