[The evaluation of resource support and organization of medical care of patients of pulmonology profile].

The article presents the results of evaluation of resource support and organization of medical care of patients of pulmonological profile on the territory of the Amurskaia and Yaroslavskaia oblast. The data permits establishing the regional differences and reserves of the oblasts for increasing effectiveness of curative and preventive activities in the field of pulmonology. The analysis of study results testify necessity of implementing complex of organizational methodical activities targeted to development of medical care at the level of primary health care in accordance with acting regulations and standards.

[Tissue specificity of antioxidant system functioning and lipid peroxidation in different age groups of Amur carp].

Key features of tissue enzymes functioning in antioxidant system (AOS) in sexually mature and immature individuals of Amur carp were studied. The activity of antioxidant enzymes was highest in the myocardium and subjected to age-related changes. It was concluded that changes in the functioning of AOS and intensity of lipid peroxidation processes are characterized by organ-tissue metabolic features and age peculiarities of metabolism that is most expressed in the myocardium.

[Genetic structure of local Ukrainian cattle breeds].

Analysis of 6 cattle breeds (5 local Ukrainian breeds and the Holstain breed) on the 9 polymorphous molecular-genetic markers (transferrin, ceruloplasmin, amylase-1, posttransferrin, receptor to vitamin D, haemoglobin, leptin, kapa-casein) was carried out. The rare allele of transferrin was revealed in two local breeds and the rare allele of leptin--in two another local breeds. Associations between syntenic loci (transferrin, ceruloplasmin, kappa-casein, receptor to vitamin D) were observed only in the local breeds but not in the Holstain one.

[Influence of selection forms on genetic structure of domestic animals].

Analysis of genetic structure of pure and crossbred sheep and cattle with the use of genetic-biochemical markers was carried out. Data on breed- and locus-specific genetic traits, stable in the time, were obtained. In sheep, breed-specific peculiarities of genetic structure partly related with the belonging of breeds to breed groups with fine-, semi-fine and coarse wool.

[Participation of structural gene markers and anonymous DNA sequences in genetic differentiation in the species Ovis aries L. and Ovis nivicola borealis].

Genetic variability and genetic differentiation in two Ovis species--domesticated (Askanian sheep, Sokilska and Kulunda sheep) and wild (bighorn sheep) were analyzed using different types of molecular-genetic markers--genetic-biochemical (30 loci) and DNA (ISSR-PCR) ones. High level of genetic variability was revealed. The average heterozygosity of biochemical markers loci was in range of 0.
