Abstract:

The authors report the results of analysis of the available information about dioxin-induced lesions in various organs and their systems with special reference to the skin including specific chloracne, toxicodermitis, late cutaneous porphyria, pigmentation of skin and mucous membranes, malignant neoplasms, etc. The dioxin-induced lesions were detected using chromatography-mass spectrometry and immunoenzyme analysis. It is concluded that dioxin environmental safety can be assured by the use of the rational technologies for the production of highly toxic organochlorine compounds.
