Article Synopsis
- The research focuses on enhancing the mechanical and physical properties of hydroxyapatites by doping them with trace elements, aiming to improve their biocompatibility for medical use.
- The study evaluates the effects of geological apatites from Russia and Morocco on human fibroblasts, which are key cells in connective tissues, by examining changes in cell activity, growth, and morphology.
- Findings indicate that moderate fluoride concentrations promote fibroblast growth, while chloride appears to inhibit it, suggesting that the specific chemical composition of hydroxyapatites can significantly affect their biological interactions and potential as biomaterials.
Soil microorganisms play an important role in the organic matter transformation process. The soil microorganisms also are in symbiotic relationship with plants. At the same time, soil microorganisms are sensitive to both anthropogenic and natural habitat changes.

In this paper the authors presented the influence of various urea phosphate doses, 1-12%, on the environmental fungi growth depending on its intensity and the type of created spore e.g. (Penicillium italicum, Aspergillusfumigatus, Aspergillus niger, Cladosporium resinae, Mucor hiemalis i Rhizopus nigricans).
