Sažetak
Hygienic conditions in an araldit plant were analyzed with particular regard to the concentration of dust and noxious chemical substances in the air. Dust level in the air (quartz dust and fiber glass dust) and among chemical noxious agents that of phthalic anhydride exceeded maximum permissible concentrations. It is proposed that maximum permissible concentration for the fiber glass dust be 3 mg/m3. A medical examination of 72 workers employed in the plant revealed chronic inflammatory changes in the upper respiratory airways. Besides, two cases of punctiform pneumoconiosis were found, one of them connected with inactive tuberculosis of lungs, then five cases of inactive tuberculosis of lungs and a high percentage of mild obstructive disturbances (27.1%). Several protective measures concerning technical and medical prevention are recommended.
