Abstract
This study aims at determining how far Baiji city air is polluted and the effect of this pollution on its citizens. Air samples are collected, they contain some polluted gases (Co, Co2). Blood samples are collected randomly from the different ages citizens of Baiji. The results are compared to the blood samples taken from healthy persons live in Syniah town, which is far from Baiji city. The results showed abnormal increase in the level of (Co, Co2)in Baiji atmosphere. They also showed that cadmium is of a significant increase in the serum of the investigated blood samples comparing to the controlling group. It is noticed that a significant increase in the rate of (PCV), (Hb) concentration and increase in the average of (ESR) in all the groups comparing to the controlling group. Moreover; the results showed a significant decrease in the total protein concentration, and a significant increase in cholesterol concentration, tri-glycerin, fatty proteins (LDL) and (VLD2). Whereas, the values of the high density fatty proteins (HDL) decreased in all groups comparing to the controlling group. Furthermore; the results showed an increase in the activities of transmitting enzymes (ALT), (AST) and Critin enzymes, Alkaline Phosphates enzyme showed a significant increase in the investigated blood serum in all the groups comparing to the controlling group upon the increase of these pollutants in city air atmosphere and increase of cadmium in the investigated blood serum.
