The effects of organic dusts on the respiratory system of workers employed in food processing, in textile workers, as well as in agricultural and livestock farmers are reported. Deposition and elimination of particles from the lung as well as the possible mechanisms of the organic dust effects on respiratory system are described. Separately are presented results of our investigations on the prevalence of respiratory symptoms and diseases as well as lung function tests as indicators of the condition of the respiratory system. Data on the experimental studies with aqueous extracts of organic dusts on smooth muscle of isolated guinea pig trachea suggest that the bronchoconstrictive effects in humans can be reproduced in nonsensitized guinea pigs. The preventive measures in the development of respiratory impairments in subjects occupationally exposed to organic dusts are described.
报告了有机粉尘对食品加工行业工人、纺织工人以及农牧业从业者呼吸系统的影响。描述了肺部颗粒的沉积与清除，以及有机粉尘对呼吸系统产生影响的可能机制。分别给出了我们关于呼吸道症状和疾病患病率的调查结果，以及作为呼吸系统状况指标的肺功能测试结果。关于有机粉尘水提取物对分离的豚鼠气管平滑肌进行实验研究的数据表明，在未致敏的豚鼠身上可以再现人类的支气管收缩效应。描述了职业接触有机粉尘的受试者发生呼吸功能损害的预防措施。
