A method for preparation and use of concentrated serum: experimental study.

Native animal sera are effectively freeze concentrated by slow cooling to -82°C for 18-24 h at a velocity of 0.1-0.5°C/h.

[Possibilities of magnetic-laser therapy in comprehensive treatment of patients with brain concussion in acute period].

The efficacy of magnetic-laser therapy used according to the method developed by us was studied in patients having the brain concussion (BC) in an acute period. The study was based on the dynamics of values of the evoked vestibular potentials and the disease clinical course. It was shown that following the magnetic-laser therapy in combination with traditional pharmacotherapy in BC acute period, the statistically significant positive changes were registered in the quantitative characteristics of the evoked vestibular brain potentials that correlated with the dynamics of the disease clinical course.

[Hyperbaric oxygenation--a method that improves the quality of life for cancer patients in the process of surgical and combined therapy].

The feasibility and advantages of application of hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO)-assisted polychemotherapy have been demonstrated. A procedure for treatment of lymphorrhea following breast surgery has been developed. The therapeutic effect of HBO procedures in postoperative cases of enteroparesis, wound infection and posthemorrhagic anemia has been demonstrated.

Cell-free translation systems from different eukaryotes differ in their sensitivity to a template sugar-phosphate backbone.

To study the role of a messenger sugar-phosphate backbone in the ribosomal decoding process, poly(U) and poly(dT) template activity in different eukaryotic systems has been compared. 80S ribosomes from Saccharomyces cerevisiae appeared to be able to translate poly(dT) both in the presence and in the absence of elongation factors, contrary to poly(U). However, ribosomes from higher eukaryotes (wheat germ, rabbit liver) are completely inefficient in poly(dT) translation.
