Abstract
Nickel and its compounds :are widely used in various manufactures such as machine-building plants, galvanic industry, metallurgy and others. The basic chemical factors in the galvanic industry are aerosols of sulfate and chloride of nickel, which concentration in air of the working zone did not exceed the maximum permissible level Influence of solutions on skin is limited by the use of individual protective devices. The analysis of condition of reproductive health of working women exposed to nickel has not revealed any statistical connection between morbidity and exposure to this metal. Prevailing diseases were a climacteric syndrome, hysteroptosis and colpoptosis. Activation humoral immunity and the sensibility to nickel were found in workers exposed to nickel
