[Essential phospholipids in the treatment of alcohol-related liver disease: clinical and experimental study].

Conducted clinical and experimental study showed the effectiveness of the use of essential phospholipids as hepatoprotector alcohol-related liver diseases. The application of essential phospholipids reduces the morphological severity of inflammatory and degenerative changes in the liver, improves the clinical picture and laboratory status of patients.

[Utilization of different carbon sources by soil and endophytic strains of Penicillium funiculosum Thom].

The ability of soil and endophytic strains of P. funiculosum to accumulate biomass under cultivation conditions in media containing carbon sources from mono- to polysaccharides has been studied. It has been shown that the most favorable carbon sources for the studied strains were maltose, sucrose, xylose, fructose, pectin, less assimilated lactose, arabinose, and especially microcrystalline cellulose.

[Utilization of carbon sources by Fusarium poae (Peck) Wollenw. Strains from different trophic groups].

It was shown that saprophytic (soil), endophytic and plant pathogenic strains of F. poae under cultivation conditions in the media containing carbon sources from mono- to polysaccharides had different abilities to use them and to accumulate biomass. Maltose, xylose, fructose, pectin were the most favorable carbon sources for the studied strains; less assimilated lactose, arabinose, and especially microcrystalline cellulose were less assimilated.

[Hepatoprotectors in treatment of alcoholic liver disease].

The best hepatoprotective effect has combined appointment Essentiale forte N, Heptral and Apilak at rats with chronic alcohol intoxication. Use of these drugs is characterized by minor morphological changes in structure of liver and constant biochemical parameters.

[Survivability of some black yeast-like fungal species under UV-irradiation].

The survival of 4 species (14 strains) of black-pigmented yeast-like fungi, isolated from radioactive polluted ecotopes, after UV-irradiation has been studied. Their survival was different in the limits of 3 orders from 0.7 to 0.
