[Serum proteins levels of school children in areas with variable air pollution, especially by carbon disulfide (CS2)].
Within an epidemiological transversal study concerning the effect of CS2 immissions on the health state of school children during 1987/1988, 340 9 to 10 years old children (198 exposed, 142 non-exposed) have been investigated. From a venous blood sample 12 serum proteins have been determined, among other determinations. From these 12 immunological parameters, relating the mean concentrations of them in connection to the two different areas 7 were significantly different, 2 probably different, and 3 had no differences (T-test). These results are discussed in connection with other data from the literature.
