Evaluating effect of natrium hyposulphide for treatment of skin diseases due to chromium on experimental rabbits

ABSTRACT

The objective of study is to evaluate effects of natrium hyposulphide for treatment the occupational dermatosis due to chromium. 23 rabbits was ulcerated by kalium bichromate 6%, after that they were treated by Hysox 10% solution and Hynax 5% ointment (main composition was natri hyposulphide) and all rabbits were observed generally symptomatically, macro and micro-scopically, and microbiologically. Results showed that after 2 weeks, the healing rate on the treated rabbit groups was 2.6 and 2.4 times higher than the control group. Authors recommended the further study and the production of this preparation in order to protect the workers exposed to chromium.
