[Influence of gold and silver nanoparticles on ATPase activity of native and rehydrated cells of Escherichia coli].

The expressed changes in the bacteria cells' plasma membrane ATPase activity values cells of Escherichia coli, which are used in the manufacturing of vaccines against cattle colienterotoxemia, have been revealed under the influence of lyophilization/rehydration process. Influence of gold (average size 20, 30, 45 nm) and silver (30 nm) nanoparticles in different concentrations on ATPase activity of native and rehydrated (delyophilized) bacteria cells has been studied. Gold and silver nanoparticles stimulated ATPase activity of native and rehydrated (delyophilizated) cells of the investigated strains.

[Lipid peroxidation and regulation of it in rat blood and liver under the experimental alimentary radionuclide effect].

Effect of alimentary radionuclide load (137Cs, 700 Bq for animal per day during 7, 14 and 22 days) on the lipid peroxidation intensity and blood and liver enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant system in the Wistar male-rats was investigated. It was found that considerable change of antioxidant system activity in plasma and erythrocytes of experimental animals was already noticeable on the 7th day of radionuclide load. After 22 days of experiment the reliability of glutathione-dependent antioxidant system in blood was essentially decreased and lipid hydroperoxide content was increased.
