The main objective of this study is to find an association between hemoglobin Hb and Organic acid anhydrides OAAs . The blood protein Hemoglobin Hb is influenced after an exposure to environmental hazardous OAAs compounds in paint & Chemical industry workers occupationally in SITE Area, Kotri, Sindh,Pakistan. A total of 85 workers fulfilled this research study criteria. These workers were divided into two groups like Paint industry n=40 and chemical industry n=45 workers. Both worker groups were compared with non-exposed normal group for comparative study. The hemoglobin test was done by simple and standard Kit method system on Microlab 300. The data was analysed by using SPSSversion16 software. The mean Hb for paint industry workers 11.5±1.4 and chemical industry workers 12.7±0.7 were lower than non-exposed normal 16.01±0.1 group. Thus, plasma Hb levels were significantly lower among both worker groups. There is prevalence of anemia found due to lower iron deficiency and poor socio-economic conditions among workers after prolonged harmful chemical compounds exposure.

B u çalışmanın temel amacı, hemoglobin Hb ve organik asit anhidritler OAA arasındaki bağlanmayı bulmaktır. SITE Area, Kotri, Sindh,Pakistan’daki boya ve kimyasal endüstrisinde çalışanların kan proteini olan hemoglobin Hb , çevre için zararlı OAA bileşiklerine maruz kaldıktan sonra etkilenir. Toplamda 85 çalışan bu araştırma çalışmasına katıldı. Bu çalışanlar boya n=40 ve kimyasal n=45 endüstri çalışanları olmak üzere ikiye bölündü. Karşılaştırma çalışması için her iki çalışan grubu maruz kalmayan normal grup ile karşılaştırıldı. Hemoglobin testi kolayca ve Microlab 300’daki standart kit metod sistemi ile yapıldı. Elde edilen sonuçlar SPSSversion16 software kullanılarak analiz edildi. Boya 11.5±1.4 ve kimyasal endüstrisininin çalışanlarının 12.7±0.7 Hb ortalaması maruz kalmayan normal gruptan 16.01±0.1 daha düşüktür. Bu nedenle, plazma Hb seviyesi her iki grup çalışanlarında da oldukça düşüktür. Bu da uzun süre zararlı kimyasal bileşiklere maruz kalan çalışanlar arasında demir eksikliği ve fakir sosyo-ekonomik durumlardan dolayı anemiyi yaygınlaştırır
