Materials And Methods: The samples for the study were field material collected in the Gagarinsky (formerly Saratovsky), Engelssky, Novoburassky and Khvalynsky districts of the Saratov region in the period from 2019 to 2022. To specifically enrich the Puumala virus genome in the samples, were used PCR and developed a specific primer panel.
This study presents new data on concentration of dissolved trace elements (DTE) in the Lena River-Laptev Sea mixing zone. Mean concentrations of some dissolved heavy metals in the mixing zone of fresh waters of the Lena River and sea waters of the Laptev Sea on the middle shelf and on the outer shelves are: 0.7± 0.

The distribution of rabies is mainly driven by host animal migration and human-mediated dispersion. To contribute to the global understanding of the rabies virus (RABV) molecular epidemiology, 94 RABV field isolates collected from animals in 13 European Russian regions were phylogenetically characterized using the nearly full-size N gene nucleotide sequences.

We report a 16-month-old female with early-onset MFS heterozygous for an 11.2 kb de novo duplication within the FBN1 gene.
