Effects of environmental pollutants on the mitochondrial and red cell membranes.

Abstract
Most environmental pollutants affect biological membranes more or less, resulting in an increase in permeability of mitochondrial and red cell membranes, which causes changes in potassium compartmentation, and also impairment of oxidative phosphorylation of mitochondria. Authors classified various environmental pollutants from the mode of action on biological membranes.
