[Gaston Ramon and concise history of anatoxins (to the centenary of discovery)].

The article analyzes past history, main milestones of making, research and improvement of anatoxins from works of Gaston Ramon who first proposed 100 years ago method of obtaining reliable vaccine preparation (anatoxin) on the basis of formalin neutralized diphtheria (and then tetanus) toxin (1922-1923) to nowadays scientific achievements in prevention and treatment of these infectious diseases.

A study on the adhesive properties of Cor. diphtheriae and Cor. parvum in the direct haemagglutination reaction.

The adhesive properties of one Cor. parvum and two Cor. diphtheriae strains were investigated by means of the direct haemagglutination reaction (HAR).

PUVA-induced erythema and changes in mechanoelectrical properties of skin. Inhibition by tocopherols.

Influence of antioxidants on two phototoxic effects of 8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP) was studied: erythema and changes in mechanoelectrical properties of skin. alpha-Tocopherol and its analogs with shortened lateral hydrocarbon chains at C2-atoms of chromane groups (chromanols) were used as antioxidants. alpha-Tocopherol and its analogs inhibited both phototoxic effects of 8-MOP.
