The objective of the present work was to study the wound-healing potential of the new preparation, Extramin (a 32% ethanol extract of organic substances from Novonukutskaya mineral water) in a series of experiments on a model of chemical burns in rabbits. The wound healing process was monitored based on biochemical, hematiological, and morphological indicators. Analysis of the results allows for the conclusion that Extramin is a powerful stimulator of the wound-healing processes and can be recommended for further clinical studies.

A new technology for isolation of medicinal balneological preparations from mineral waters has been developed. It is based on the extraction of biologically active compounds (BAC) from mineral waters with ethanol following oxidative hydrolysis and water vapour distillation. This technology has no analogs both in this country and abroad.

It was shown that poisoning caused by individual chemical substances and their mixtures induced significantly different changes in the liver of animals. The mixtures produced much more serious toxic lesions in the parenchymal tissue than individual spirits (including development of necrotization foci) and contributed to enhanced mortality of experimental animals.
