Abstract

During this short term study a total of 110 samples were collected from the selected individuals of study area. This study was aimed to count the White blood cells in the blood samples of individuals, who were mostly exposed to exhaust fumes (air pollution), like traffic constables, cooks and shopkeepers. For this purpose blood samples were taken into an evacuee container having anticoagulant Ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid (EDTA) so to prevent coagulation of blood, for the count of WBCs, heamocyto-meter was used. During the study the body mass index and blood pressure was also measured by digital blood pressure measuring apparatus. Samples were observed under the microscope. It was found that 15% (13,133±2544.081) sampled individuals had increased WBCs and 85% (7821±1482.76) normal WBCs. In female samples 50% (11900±2151.27) were observed with above range of WBCs and other 50% (8540±844.39) with normal range of WBCs count, non-had WBCs count lower than the normal WBCs. Mostly had normal and few had above the range. One way ANOVA has been used to analyze connection of exposure to air pollution with counts of circulating white blood cells.

Highlights

  • Air pollution is a mixture of gases and particles that can feast damaging absorptions open-air and privileged

  • There are many types of white blood cells (WBCs) that perform particular roles, such as Neutrophils (65 to 70% of the total WBC) directing and consuming the invading bacterial lymphocytes (25% of WBC) mature antibodies that shield the body from the antigen and have protection to infection

  • During this study the 110 individuals were observed had a greater exposure to the polluted environment. Their blood samples were taken for WBCs count

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Air pollution is a mixture of gases and particles that can feast damaging absorptions open-air and privileged. The white blood cell Count (WBC) is an important measure of the health of the healthy surroundings. It is emerging as a danger issue for neverending conditions. Momentary symptoms are short and vary from basic distress, such as inflammation of the eyes, nose, skin, mouth, loss of breath, hacking and chest snugness, and respiratory problems, to more genuine conditions, such as asthma, pneumonia, bronchitis, and problems with the lungs and heart These problems can be disturbed by extended long-term introduction to the poisons, which is harmful to the neurological, reproductive, and respiratory frameworks and causes cancer and even, rarely, passing. There is four corner’s mm (1mm x 1mm) WBCs is viewed like this spots and the average number of White blood cells for 1mm is calculated, from this value the total WBC count/mm. For the analysis of collected data one way ANOVA was used
