Harmful factors of the industrial environment of the steel plants are represented by sulfur- and arsenic-containing compounds, nitrogen and carbon oxides, aerosols of heavy and rare metals, fluorine compounds whose concentrations exceed the maximum allowable ones in the air of the working place. The results of the cytogenetic examination of metallurgists attest to the pronounced total mutagenic activity of unfavourable factors of the industrial environment, among which the key role is played by arsenic, fluorine and heavy metal compounds.
钢铁厂工业环境中的有害因素表现为含硫和砷的化合物、氮氧化物和碳氧化物、重金属和稀有金属的气溶胶、氟化合物，其浓度超过工作场所空气中的最大允许值。冶金工作者的细胞遗传学检查结果证明了工业环境不利因素具有明显的总诱变活性，其中砷、氟和重金属化合物起关键作用。
