Abstract:

The question of changes in protein metabolism with the effect of vibration has not been sufficiently studied. Of the published works devoted to the problem of vibration, the authors first present the studies of M. I. Kuznetsov, Yu. F. Udalov, and N. P. Chelnokov 1959. The authors point to a reduction in the excretion of creatinine with the action of mechanical vibrations which, in their opinion, is caused by the effect of vibration on protein metabolism. The study was conducted to determine the content of serum protein of workers subjected to the effect of general vibration in the production of precast reinforced concrete. One hundred ninety-one workers were investigated to study the nature of the shifts on the part of protein metabolism.
