[The immunomorphological characteristics of prolonged exposure to the herbicide linuron]
Abstract
The authors investigated the effect of long-term use of the herbicide linuron on the histo- and ultrastructure of the thymus and factors of immunological defense. It was found that the use of linuron in animals resulted in development of secondary immunodeficiency states manifested in pathology of the thymic structure, first of all lesions of the epithelial cells-feeders and disorders of immunological indices.
