Abstract
The presence of high air concentrations of hydrogen cyanide vapours in the workplace, the exposure of which stipulates high morbidity rates with a temporary work capacity loss, complications of pregnancy development and births, working losses while nursing the sick children in the women workers of the factories above compared with a control group was found to be a feature of work conditions at the Gold Extraction enterprises. Pathogenetic links of chronic exposure to hydrogen cyanide which lead to reproductive health disturbances may be considered to be forming the picture of hystooxical hypoxia, detoxication mechanisms based on binding CN-ions with methemoglobin, thiocyanate cumulation, hormone T3 and T4 synthesis disturbances.
