A detailed clinico-functional examination allowed to reveal changes in some systems of the body of mine rescuers, namely disorders of external respiratory function of obstructive, restrictive and mixed types, increased tone of the cerebral and peripheral vessels, reduction of their blood filling evidencing unfavourable effects on the rescuer's mechanism connected with psychoemotional overstrain and specific professional factors.

Using disk electrophoresis in the polyacrylamide gel, blood serum proteins were studied in miners working under conditions of the combine (the control group) and drilling-and-blasting (the contact with carbon oxide, nitrogen oxides) driving technique under normal temperature conditions. 26--27 protein fractions characterized by mobility, thermolability under definite conditions of the experiment and the contitative content were obtained. It is shown that the contact with carbon oxide and nitrogen oxides causes changes in the rpoperties of certain proteins (II3, globulins--2 alpha 1, 3 alpha 1, 2 beta, 2 alpha 2, 5 alpha 2, 6 alpha 2, 7 alpha 2) of miners blood serum. Some of these proteins are supposed to participate in the adaptation reactions of the organism.
