[Skin pathology in industrial microbiology workers].

Skin examinations of the workers engaged in three microbiologic synthesis enterprises revealed changes produced as reactions to the influence of multicomponent industrial factors. The allergic dermatoses, superficial candidiasis and epidermitis occurrence depended on the duration and degree of the contact with industrial biologically active substances. The regularities underlying transformations of the diseases from one form to another were determined. The stage based approach to the treatment and prevention of dermatoses contributed significantly to lowering their prevalence.
