The timely identification of areas where man-made radionuclides migrate through water streams is highly important for the territory of the former Semipalatinsk Test Site since the aquatic environment is currently a source of secondary contamination of environment. This article presents research findings on radioactively contaminated Lake Kishkensor located at the Semipalatinsk Test Site territory. As a result of this research, a new locally contaminated spot was discovered in the vicinity of the "Balapan" test site.

The line is characterized as deficient in GDP-l-galactose phosphorylase 1 () gene encodes a protein involved in ascorbate biosynthesis. Primer pairs allow to distinguishing SALK_146824C from wild type plants and to the exact localization of the insertion were designed used.

These changes reflected a decrease in functional activity of the GABA(A)-receptor/Cl(-)ionophore complex. Muscimol-stimulated Cl(-)conductance in synaptoneurosomes returned to normal 48 h after pentylenetetrazole administration.
