Smallest scale of wrinkles of a Huygens front in extremely strong turbulence.

By analyzing the statistically stationary stage of propagation of a Huygens front in homogeneous, isotropic, constant-density turbulence, a length scale l_{0} is introduced to characterize the smallest wrinkles on the front surface in the case of a low constant speed u_{0} of the front when compared to the Kolmogorov velocity u_{K}. The length scale is derived following a hypothesis of dynamical similarity that highlights a balance between (i) creation of a front area due to advection and (ii) destruction of the front area due to propagation. Consequently, the front speed is compared with the magnitude of the fluid velocity difference in two points separated by a distance smaller than the Kolmogorov length scale.

Adaptation and Probiotic Potential of Lactobacilli, Isolated from the Oral Cavity and Intestines of Healthy People.

The present study shows that, from 300 Lactobacillus strains isolated from the oral cavity and large intestine of 600 healthy people, only 9 had high antagonistic activity against pathogens and opportunistic pathogens. All antagonistic strains of lactobacilli have been identified by 16S rRNA sequencing and assigned to four species: Lactobacillus fermentum, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Lactobacillus casei. In addition, these lactobacilli appeared to be nonpathogenic and had some probiotic potential: the strains produced lactic acid and bacteriocins, showed high sensitivity to broad-spectrum antibiotics, and were capable of forming biofilms in vitro.

[The adhesive and antagonistic activity of microflora of oral cavity in patients with malignant neoplasms of tongue].

The data concerning the degree of adhesion and antagonism of microorganisms of oral cavity in patients with malignant neoplasms of tongue is presented. it is established that pathogenic and conditionally pathogenic microflora has more mainly high and less infrequent degree of adhesion. the normal microflora has average and low degree of adhesion.

[THE EFFECT OF DURATION OF ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT ON MICRO-BIOCENOSIS OF BACK OF MUCOUS MEMBRANE OF TONGUE].

The article presents analysis of results of studying spectrum, rate of occurrence and amount of microorganisms on mucous membrane of back of tongue before orthodontic treatment of dentoalveolar anomalies and deformations and on different stages of fixation. It is established that in all patients the dominant microorganisms of analyzed biotope were bacteria of genus of Streptococcus and Peptostreptococcus released in number of 5-6 Ig CFU/cm2. The gender and quantitative characteristics of opportunistic pathogenic microorganisms varied during all year of monitoring.

[The characteristics of probiotic properties of strains of genus of bifidobacterium separated from gastrointestinal tract of residents of the central region of Russia].

The 156 samples of feces separated from healthy residents of the Central region of Russia were used to compose collection of 87 strains of Bifidobacterium out of which 5 strains with wide antagonistic activity related to pathogenic and opportunistic microorganisms were selected. The selected strains are characterized by high probiotic potentials. They have adhesive properties and sensitivity to antibiotics and preparations corresponding to main requirements of common pharmacopoeia articles to strains of microorganisms used in production of probiotics for medicinal application.
