Abstract

Two groups of school children (7-16 years old) were studied. I - children from Lukhuni gorge, where  arsenic was mined and  processed for many years; II – children living  far (>50 km) from the territory of  arsenic mining. Pediatric monitoring revealed significant increasing of general morbidity, immunological and hematological investigations were conducted in 43 children (21 from group I and 22 from group II). The level of arsenic in blood and urine was defined. At all points the differences were revealed, that affirmed the impact of ecological situation on the organism and adaptative processes of children from group I. Researches were repeated in 2016. The data is identical.
