122. What is referred to as “ an area, within which there were massive destruction people, farm animals and plants by highly toxic substances”?

123. What is the way of penetration of harmful substances into the body in majority of occupational poisoning?

A lesion of HTS

124. Which toxic substances do cause the development of chronic phase of poisoning?

Chronic, acute intoxication

125. What are measures to prevent occupational poisoning?

Effective way is to replace toxic substances with harmless or less toxic. It is important in improving the working conditions by applying hygienic regulation that restricts the content of harmful substances through the establishment of MAC in the air of working zone and on the skin. To this end, a hygienic standardization of raw materials and products takes place, providing for limitation of the content of toxic impurities in industrial raw materials and finished products according to their hazard and risk.

A major role in the prevention of occupational intoxications belongs to the mechanization of the production process, making it possible to conduct it in a closed apparatus and minimize the contact of the worker with toxic substances (mechanical loading and unloading of fertilizers, detergents etc). Similar problems are solved with the hermetization (sealing) of the production equipment and facilities that emit toxic gases, fumes and dust. A reliable means of combating air pollution is the creation of vacuum, which prevents release of toxins through existing leaks.

126. What is the most important mean to provide first aid in acute poisoning according to a pathogenetic therapy?

The most important means of pathogenetic therapy - is the use of oxygen at all intoxications, leading to the emergence of oxygen deficiency in the organism. It should be emphasized that in the leading clinic of many professional poisoning is the syndrome of insufficient oxygen. Oxygen should be applied already at the first signs of oxygen deficiency, the most effective is its early, timely and prolonged enough application.

127. Which of these gases are combustible gases?

Ammonia (liquefied)

128. What is referred to as “the neutralization and removal of chemical agents from the skin of people, as well as personal protective clothing and footwear”?

Sanitization

129. What are the principal means of protecting the population against biological weapons?

Vaccine- serum, antibiotics, sulfamide drugs and other substances used for special and emergency prevention of infectious diseases, personal and collective protection used for decontamination of chemical agents.

130. What measures are used to prevent the spread of infectious diseases among the population in the focus of the lesion?

To prevent the spread of infectious diseases among the population, complex epidemiological and hygienic measures are developed in the focus of the lesion: emergency prevention; sanitation of the population; different disinfection of contaminated sites. If necessary the insects, mites and rodents are destroyed (Pest and rodent control). The main forms of struggle against epidemics are observation and quarantine.

131. Which International act did ban production and use of Biological Weapons in any form?

The only proven fact of intentional use of biological weapons in 20th century – infection of Chinese territories by Japanese with plague bacteria in the 30-40th of the last century.

132. When did Kazakhstan's Parliment ratify the Bioweapons Convention?

133. What was the largest field test site for biological weapons in the former Soviet Union?

The Soviet Union’s largest field test site for biological weapons was on Vozrozhdeniye Island, now a peninsula, in the Aral Sea, where weapons armed with anthrax, plague, tularemia, and smallpox were tested.

134. What kinds of the bacterial (biological) agents can be used to infect people?
