The indices of the immune status and homocystein in persons working in the chemical industry are studied. As a result, the laboratory indications of activation of the immune system are revealed, as well as the increased activity of cellular and humoral immunity. Moderate homocysteinemia is found among men aging of 56—65 with an idiopathic hypertensia. Homocystein appears to be an independent risk factor of coronary, cerebral and peripheral vessels diseases.
