Safety of blood donations in individuals exposed to adverse ecological and occupational factors
A comprehensive study of the impact of blood donations on hematology was performed in donors from the Arctic region. It was established that harvesting (420 ± 10) ml of blood from donors working in adverse ecological and occupational conditions and exposed to ionizing radiation in doses not exceeding the maximum permissible level, did not cause changes in cell structure, biochemical and immunological parameters of peripheral blood beyond reference values. Peripheral blood parameters in donors recover within 28 days after the donations to the initial values.
