[New wording of sanitary regulations and standards 2.2.1/2.1.1.120-03 "Control Areas and Sanitary Classification of Enterprises, Erections, and Other Projects"].
The paper gives the SanPiN requirements 2.2.1/2.1.1.120-03 "Control Areas and Sanitary Classification of Enterprises, Erections, and Other Objects" (a new wording), with emphasis on the new provisions concerning the problems associated with the determination of the size of a control area of both individual industrial projects and a group of industrial projects (industrial zones). Requirements for the evaluation of the efficiency of an established control area, by assessing the risk to human health have been first established.

Comparative Study[Childhood allergic morbidity in a town with developed petrochemical industry].
The degree of ambient pollution was studied in a town with developed petrochemical industry and allergic morbidity in its pediatric population. The specific features of the pattern and course of allergic diseases were revealed in children in relation to the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of ambient pollution. The findings permit elaboration of practical measures aimed at lowering the influence of environmental factors and to improve the health status in children.

Comparative Study[Prenosological diagnosis of the upper airway mucosa].
The paper analyzes the results of microbiological, immunological, and cytological studies of the upper airway in apparently healthy individuals exposed to toxic agents. The upper airway endoenvironmental changes have been found at the prenosological level, which may lead to the development of clinical pathology. The informative indicators of prenosological diagnosis have been determined, which make it possible to detect early changes in microbiocenoses, the body's resistance, and mucosal cytological status.

Comparative Study[Integrated estimation of carcinogenic load on the population in the town of Aktobe].
Identification of carcinogens from the results of monitoring various environmental objects in an industrial town (Actobe) could single out 8 priority trace elements, which might cause their human accumulation. A carcinogenic risk was found to be formed due to the high ambient chromium pollution in the residential areas, to the accumulation of the elements in the deposited media and human body. Drinking water is a minor source of the identified carcinogens; therefore it may be borne in mind in the further analysis of a carcinogenic risk.

[Influence of ambient air pollution on children's health in Krivoĭ Rog].
The degree and nature of surface air pollution with man-made chemicals were studied in Krivoy Rog in 1996 to 2005. The priorities of pollutants were established in the area with different forms of technogenic emissions and residential areas. Immunological parameters were studied in healthy neonates and 7-10-year-old children. There was a reduction in the major immunological parameters in both healthy neonatal infants and 7-10-year-old children and a rise in pediatric morbidity.
