[The etiological pattern of acute respiratory virus infections in Baku in 2002-2006].

The etiological pattern of respiratory viral infections was detected in Baku in 2002-2006. There was a high proportion of influenza A virus in the occurrence of respiratory infections in Baku in 2002-2006. There was no relationship of the detection of various respiratory viral infections to age and sex in Baku in the above period.

[Study of the phenomenon and substantiation of the mechanism of antimutagenesis under conditions of action of sodium fluoride].

Transplanted human amnion cells have been used in experiments differing in the regularity of the sodium fluoride and alpha-tocopherol action to determine a considerable antimutagenic efficiency of the mutagenic process modifier, the efficiency being dependent on the treatment variability.

[Neutralization by bioantioxidants of virus-induced mutagenesis in cultured human cells].

The ability of alpha-tocopherol to neutralize mutational process caused by persistent infection (West Nile virus, strain 229) and primary infection (virus of poliomyelitis, type II) was shown in transplanted amnion and human kidney cells. Antimutagenic effect of the modificator was registered, independently of the regime and succession of applying alpha-tocopherol and inductors.

[Effect of preliminary chronic irradiation and alpha-tocopherol on the frequency of chromosome aberrations in mouse bone marrow cells, induced by exposure to acute gamma-irradiation].

The incidence of chromosome aberrations in bone marrow cells of femur did not exceed the spontaneous one in CBA mice exposed, during 70 days, to gamma-radiation at dose--rates of 33.7-35.8 nA/kg and cumulative dose of 2.
