Abstract：
:Lymphocytes, T-cells (CD3+), T-helper (CD4+) and T-suppressor (CD8+) as well as NK-cells (CD16+) counts were determined in the peripheral blood of 81 males occupationally exposed to metallic mercury vapours and of 36 non-exposed males using monoclonal antibodies in indirect immunofluorescence tests. Mean weighted mercury concentration in air accounted for 0.0028 mg x m-3. Urine mercury concentrations ranged from 0 to 240 micrograms x 1(-1) and concentrations in the blood varied from 0 to 30 micrograms x 1(-1). Stimulation of T-lymphocytes manifested by an increased number of T-cells, T-helper and T-suppressor was observed. Quantitative change in T-cells night be an immunological index of exposure to mercury vapours as indicated by a positive correlation between the exposure duration and the number of these cells.
