Comparative Study[Hygienic characteristics of the influence of anthropogenic and natural geochemical factors on the population health in the South Ural].
The natural and technogenic factors of the industrial towns and rural localities in the Orenburg Region were differentially analyzed. The modifying effects of xenobiotics and their complex action on man are considered. The study showed the high pollution of the atmosphere, the blanket of snow, soil, the trace composition imbalance of drinking water, foodstuffs, a reduction in biogenic elements and an increase in toxic elements in the children's substrates (blood, hair) and high morbidity among the children suggest the presence of the formed technogenic biogeochemical province in the Eastern zone and, those in terms of some xenobiotics, in the Central area of the Orenburg Region.
