Results of in vitro test-KRAStissue reagent kit test to determine indications for target therapy of patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer.

As subjects of the clinical trial, 44 samples of paraffin-fixed tissue were used from patients diagnosed with "colorectal cancer." In the course of clinical trials, 44 samples of paraffin-fixed tissue were analyzed in two series of experiments, that is, 88 clinical-laboratory experiments were carried out, of which 48 experiments with genomic DNA samples with the established negative status of the presence of KRAS gene mutations and 40 experiments with genomic DNA samples with the established positive status of the presence of KRAS gene mutations. Analysis and evaluation of the results of clinical laboratory tests of the medical product "Kit of Reagents for Determination of the Status of KRAS Gene Mutations by PCR-RV Method in a Sample of Human Genomic DNA from Samples of Paraffin-Fixed Tissue (Test-KRAS-tissue) according to TU 21.

Age-Related Distinctions in EEG Signals during Execution of Motor Tasks Characterized in Terms of Long-Range Correlations.

The problem of revealing age-related distinctions in multichannel electroencephalograms (EEGs) during the execution of motor tasks in young and elderly adults is addressed herein. Based on the detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA), differences in long-range correlations are considered, emphasizing changes in the scaling exponent α. Stronger responses in elderly subjects are confirmed, including the range and rate of increase in α.

Microorganisms of Lake Baikal-the deepest and most ancient lake on Earth.

Lake Baikal (Russia) is the largest (by volume) and deepest lake on Earth. The lake remains relatively pristine due to the low population density around its basin. Being very distant from any marine water body but having a remarkable number of similarities to oceans (depth, oxygen content, oligotrophy) provides a unique model of pelagic microbiota that is submitted to marine-like conditions minus the salt content of the water.

Protatranes, effective growth biostimulants of hydrocarbon-oxidizing bacteria from Lake Baikal, Russia.

Under natural conditions, biodegradation processes proceed slowly, especially in regions with low temperature. To activate vital processes in hydrocarbon-oxidizing microorganisms at low temperatures, biologically active compounds can be employed as growth stimulants. A low-temperature (10 °C) study has shown that tris-(2 hydroxyethyl) ammonium arylchalcogenylacetates, "protatranes" exert an effect on the growth of hydrocarbon-oxidizing strains of and , isolated from natural oil seepage on Lake Baikal.

Draft Genome Sequence of sp. Strain PB12/4term, a Thermophilic Facultative Anaerobic Bacterium from Bottom Sediments of Lake Baikal, Russia.

Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Thermaerobacter sp. strain PB12/4term, a thermophilic facultative anaerobic bacterium from the bottom sediments of Lake Baikal, Russia, associated with the discharge zone of gas-bearing fluids.

The Ability of Microbial Community of Lake Baikal Bottom Sediments Associated with Gas Discharge to Carry Out the Transformation of Organic Matter under Thermobaric Conditions.

The ability to compare the composition and metabolic potential of microbial communities inhabiting the subsurface sediment in geographically distinct locations is one of the keys to understanding the evolution and function of the subsurface biosphere. Prospective areas for study of the subsurface biosphere are the sites of hydrocarbon discharges on the bottom of the Lake Baikal rift, where ascending fluxes of gas-saturated fluids and oil from deep layers of bottom sediments seep into near-surface sediment. The samples of surface sediments collected in the area of the Posolskaya Bank methane seep were cultured for 17 months under thermobaric conditions (80°C, 5 MPa) with the addition of complementary organic substrate, and a different composition for the gas phase.
