[Heat exchange of the rat in thermoneutral zone temperature and comparison with heat exchange in ambient temperature over and under it].

With the help of thermonetry and general calorimetry body temperature and heat production in ambient temperatures 20 degrees C, 28 degrees C, 33 degrees C were recorded. The experiments showed, that at the temperature 20 degrees C the rectal temperature was changing very little. But in ambient temperature 33 degrees C the rectal temperature was 40.

[Influence of EDTA injection in the blood of the rat on the process of self-warming after deep hypothermia].

With the help of thermometry and general calorimetry, changes in the heat exchange were determined in rats upon their getting out of artificial deep hypothermia (the temperature in the rectum was 19-20 degrees C) at the temperature in the calorimeter chamber of 20 degrees C. In initial study of self-warming (the temperature in the rectum was 21-22 degrees C), the rats were injected with 1 ml 0.5% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salt (EDTA) with purpose of speeding up the recovery to normal state.

[Dynamics of the heat exchange in rats upon getting out of the state of artificial deep hypothermia].

With the help of thermometry and general calorimetry the changes in the heat exchange were determined in the rats upon their getting out of artificial deep hypothermia (the temperature in the rectum was 20 degrees C) at the temperature in the calorimeter chamber 20 degrees C. An attempt was made to find out what part of the heat production during an animal self-warming is used for increasing its body temperature and what part of the heat production is released to the environment by the animal. The experiments revealed a complex relationship between the body temperature, the heat loss, and the total heat production during the animal selfwarming.

[Legislative and legal security of supervisory activities in the sphere of protection of consumers' rights and human well-being].

Sanitary legislation plays an important role in supervisory activities ensuring the protection of consumers' rights and human well-being. The paper considers the basic laws and standard acts allowing for legal regulation in this sphere of activities.

[Assessment of human health damage as a priority of human ecology and a tool for justifying managerial decisions].

The paper analyzes of the currently available guidelines for assessing damages (in kind and value terms) caused by environmental factors to the population's health. The contributions of various diseases, the quality of the environment, bad habits, and other internal and external factors to the mortality structure in Russia are compared. The authors show it important to study the comparative role of the quality of life and its style, environmental pollution, the population's subjective perception of risks in the formation of health damages.
