Data on the influence of clarification and stabilization with bentonite clays on the elemental composition of red wines determining their varietal affiliation.

The research data on the effect of bentonite clays (BT) in the process of clarification and stabilization on the elemental composition determining the varietal affiliation of wines are analyzed in the article. The initial objects were three untreated wine samples produced from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Moldova grape varieties in the Krasnodar Territory. Clarification and stabilization of untreated wine samples was carried out with 32 samples of BT of various degrees of dispersion and trademarks.

[Efficiency of polyphenol-rich grape products for the prevention of metabolic disorders in the experiment].

The article presents the results of study of the effect of polyphenol-rich materials obtained from grapes on the clinical symptoms, activity of non-specific proteases, and parameters of lipid peroxidation (LPO) of blood of rats with fructose model of metabolic syndrome (MS). White male rats (n=54, with initial body weight of 190-210 g) were randomly divided into five groups: control and 4 experimental groups. Body weight, circumference of the abdomen, blood serum level of glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides and high density (HDL) lipoproteins were monitored in all animals in dynamics.

[IDENTIFICATION OF CAUSATIVE AGENTS OF GLANDERS AND MELIOIDOSIS BASED ON PRINCIPLES OF POLYPHASE TAXONOMIC APPROACH].

Aim: Determine an optimal set of the most effective methods of identification and intraspecies typing ofcausative agents ofglanders and melioidosis. Materials andmethods. Bacteriologic, immunochemical, molecular-genetic methods were used.

[Influence of the concentrate of red wine polyphenols on glutamate neurotoxicity].

The purpose of the work was to assess the influence of the concentrate of red table wine Saperavi on the cultivated nerve cells exposed to glutamate. The selection of Saperavi as the source of phenolic compounds was not accidental: this type of grapes in the Krasnodar region has the highest content of them - up to 4-5 g/dm3 and more. Polyphenol concentrate was prepared by pre-distillation of ethanol using vacuum, evaporation of red table wine with a rotary vaporizer, with the subsequent lyophilic drying.

[Antioxidant activity of different types of red grape wines].

This article represented the data about antioxidant activity in the red table and liqueurfaults, prepared from the types of grapes of Cabernet, Merlot and Saperavi. The antioxidant activity of faults in the conversion to TROLOX, the synthetic analog of gallic acid, was determined by voltammetric method. The determination of antioxidant activity was conducted in the young faults (through 2 month after the completion of fermentation) and through half a year the storage without the air inlet.

[Antioxidant and antiradical properties of red grape wines].

The article presents the results of studies of the antioxidant and antiradical capacity of red table wines. It is shown that the antioxidant and antiradical properties of red wines due to the varieties of grapes and processing technologies. A correlation between the concentration of phenolic components of the complex and antiradical properties, as well as antioxidant and antiradical properties of red wines has been established.

[Impact of a cold wave on disease course, hemodynamics, carbohydrate metabolism, and blood rheological properties in cardiac patents].

Aim: To study the impact of cold waves on disease course, hemodynamics, lipid and carbohydrate metabolisms, oxidative stress, and blood rheological properties in patients with cardiovascular diseases (CVD).

Subjects And Methods: 24 men and 36 women (their mean age was 62.9±9.

Use of the phytopathogenic effect for studies of Burkholderia virulence.

The phytopathogenic effect of the pseudomallei group Burkholderia is demonstrated on the Peireskia aculeata model. A method for evaluation of the effect is suggested. The effect correlates with the levels of Burkholderia pseudomallei, Burkholderia mallei, and Burkholderia thailandensis virulence for laboratory animals.

[Bacteriocins and bacteriophages of pathogenic Burkholderia].

Aim: Detection of bacteriocins and phages in pathogenic bacteria of Burkholderia genus and study of their specificity range.

Materials And Methods: Sixty strains of B. pseudomallei, 11 strains of B.

High-level resistance to fluoroquinolones and cephalosporins in Burkholderia pseudomallei and closely related species.

The molecular mechanisms involved in the development of a high level of resistance to a wide range of antimicrobials in Burkholderia pseudomallei and closely related species have not been sufficiently investigated. In the present study, the properties of B. pseudomallei, B.

[Some properties of plasmocoagulase of the causative agents of glanders and melioidosis].

Criteria for the evaluation of the plasmocoagulase activity of natural isolates and mutant strains of the causative agents of glanders and melioidosis were worked out, which made it possible to subdivide them by this sign into pathogens with high, moderate and low activity. Plasmocoagulase produced by pathogenic Burkholderia was shown to be a thermolabile enzyme, comparatively stable with respect to the action of such chemico-biological agents as hydrogen peroxide and chloramine.

[Use of isoenzymes for the identification of apricot cultivars].

Isozyme polymorphism was used for identification of apricot cultivars. 34 cultivars of 38 studied ones had unique genotype profiles for allelic composition of the AAT-1, EST-1, EST-2, SOD-1, LAP-1, PX-2 loci and AMY phenotypes. All regionized and being under State sort testing cultivars of hybridous origin were differentiated.

The effect of exogenous phosphocreatine on maximal walking distance, blood rheology, platelet aggregation, and fibrinolysis in patients with intermittent claudication.

Thirty-seven men with angiography or ultrasound confirmed peripheral arterial occlusive disease were divided into two groups. Group 1 included 24 patients treated with one daily infusion of 10 g of phosphocreatine in 200 ml of solvent for 10 days. Group 2 included 13 patients who were given 0.

[The use of the plasmid pTH10 for isolating the donor strains of Pseudomonas mallei].

The plasmid pTH10 was transfered by conjugation into the Pseudomonas mallei strains. An attempt to construct the donor strains using the widely known technique employing the homology between the plasmid and chromosome due to the transposon Tn1 carried by the plasmid was unsuccessful. Among the clones resistant to bacteriophage PRD1 the variants were selected with the supposed integration of the plasmid into the chromosome.
