[Functional state feature of erythrocytes in healthy term newborn infants].

Hematological parameters and functional status of erythrocytes were studied by the osmotic and ammonium loads in healthy newborns and in adults. Mean erythrocyte volume of newborns more than in adults. Significant difference index of osmotic fragility of neonates were observed in the transition from swelling to hemolysis.

[The inhibiting effect of dimethylaminomethylferrocene on amylase].

The effects of dimethylaminomethylferrocene (DMAMF) on amylose and maltodextrins destruction by gluco-, alpha- and beta-amylases have been studied. The nature of DMAMF effects depends on the action mechanism of amylases and structure of their active sites. The effect observed is interpreted in terms of a hypothesis on a subsite structure of the amylase active centers.
