METHOD FOR DETECTING A HIGH DEGREE OF EXOGENOUS INTOXICATION OF THE BODY OF MOLYBDENUM PRODUCTION WORKERS WITH MOLYBDENUM OXIDE COMING FROM THE AIR OF THE WORKING AREA Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC G01N33/48 A61B5/00 

FIELD: medicine and toxicology.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medicine and toxicology. A sample of blood serum from a patient in a volume of 5 mcl is placed on a horizontally located glass, pre-treated with ethyl or isopropyl alcohol; carry out its hydration by drying in air at a temperature of 22°C for 8 hours; perform an analysis of the structure of the resulting facies under a microscope with a total increase of ×100 to establish the following indicators: the overall degree of crystallization; average length of cracks in the peripheral ring; the thickness of the transition ring zone and the average crystallite area of ​​the central zone. With the value of these indicators: the total degree of crystallization of more than 0.17; the average length of cracks in the peripheral ring is more than 0.1 mm; the thickness of the transition ring zone is more than 0.46 mm; the average value of the crystallite area of the central zone is less than 0.01 mm2, a high degree of molybdenum intoxication of the body is diagnosed.

EFFECT: method provides informative and evidence-based detection of a high degree of exogenous intoxication of the worker's body with molybdenum oxide.
