Developing Scattering Morphology Resolved Total Internal Reflection Microscopy (SMR-TIRM) for Orientation Detection of Colloidal Ellipsoids.

Micrometer scale colloidal particles experiencing ∼ scale interactions and suspended in a fluid are relevant to a broad spectrum of applications. Often, colloidal particles are anisotropic, either by design or by nature. Yet, there are few techniques by which ∼ scale interactions of anisotropic particles can be measured.

DEFINITION OF THE OPTIMUM MODES OF OPERATION OF AIR-MO- NITORING INSTRUMENTATION FOR DETECTION OF PATHOGENIC BIOLOGI- CAL AGENTS IN MODEL EXPERIMENTS.

Aim: To experimentally define the optimum modes ofoperation ofthe nonspecific detector IBAC integrated with C100 sampler and BioCapture sampler in model experiments during the work in various environmental conditions and at dispersion of the biological aerosol.

Materials And Methods: The nonspecific detector IBAC with the C100 sampler and the BioCapture sampler were used for air-monitoring test on existence of pathogenic biological agents (PBA). For preparation of the bioaerosols the strain of Salmonella typhimurium 9640 and a bull seralbumin were used.

[THEORETICAL ASPECTS OF CREATION OF SPECIFIC PREPARATIONS FOR ETIOTROPIC THERAPY AND PROPHYLAXIS OF WEST NILE FEVER AND CRIMEAN HAEMORRHAGIC FEVER].

Problematic issues on creation and practical introduction of specific immune biologic prepa- rations for therapy and prophylaxis of natural-foci arbovirus infections - West Nile fever (WNF) and Crimean hemorrhagic fever (CHF), that are not available until now, are examined. Persistent natural foci of WNF and.CHF with epidemic manifestations have formed in Southern and North Caucasian Federal Districts of Russia.

[COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE MLVA25- AND MLVA7-TYPING ACCORDING TO THEIR ABILITY TO ASCERTAIN FOCAL AFFILIATION OF YERSINIA PESTIS STRAINS BY THE EXAMPLE OF ISOLATES FROM THE CENTRAL-CAUCASIAN HIGHLAND NATURAL PLAGUE FOCUS].

Comparative analysis of the MLVA25- and MLVA7-typing ability to evaluate focal belonging of Y. pestis strains by the example of bv. medievalis isolates from the Central-Caucasian highland natural plague focus was carried out.

[FEATURES OF THE ORGANIZATION OF SANITARY-EPIDEMIOLOGICAL SURVEILLANCE DURING THE PERIOD OF PREPARATION AND HOSTING OF THE XXII OLYMPIC WINTER GAMES AND XI PARALYMPIC WINTER GAMES IN THE RESORT CITY OF SOCHI IN 2014].

In the paper there are presented the basic principles of the organization of activities for the assurance ofthe sanitary- epidemiological welfare in the period ofpreparation and hosting of the XXII Olympic Winter Games and XI Paralympic Winter Games of 2014 in the Resort City of Sochi. There are considered features of the organization ofepidemiological surveillance in the pre-Olympic period, the period of the games and the state of the morbidity rate in the region after the Olympics. There are presented data on certain directions of the work of organs and institutions of the Federal Service for Supervision of Consumer Rights Protection and Human Welfare on the disease control of the event.
