Impact of cultivation factors in vitro on the growth and the biosynthesis of steviol glycosides in cell cultures.

The growth and the biosynthesis of steviol glycosides (SGs) in cell cultures subjected to the impact of different cultivation factors were investigated under in vitro conditions. The changes in composition and concentration of constituted components of the nutrient medium was found to exert a significant influence on the of cell culture growth and the biosynthesis of SGs. It was found that combination of growth regulators in the nutrient medium is more important factor for proliferation of isolated cells of while the level of SGs accumulation depends to greater extent on genotypical features of cell strain.

[Methods and Means for Defense from Collateral Action of Vaccine Virus after Vaccination Against Spallpox].

In connection with actuality of smallpox vaccination at present its methods and means are discussed to increase the safety of the first immunization with live vaccines.

[Experience with use of immunomodulators in treatment of tonsillitis developed at the background of preimmunization by TEOVac].

The use of immunomodulators in the treatment of subjects with postvaccinal reactions to TEOVac was investigated. The most effective schemes were shown to be those with the use of viferon or combination of arbidol and licopide. The terms of the response signs cupping off were much shorter vs.

[Estimation of possible use of interferon inductors for prevention of postvaccional reactions to TEOVac in animal models].

The experiments on guinea pigs showed that arbidol administered orally in a single dose 24 hours prior vaccination with TEOVAC and ridostin administered in a single dose intranasally on the 4th day after the vaccination lowered the vaccine virus accumulation in the animal organs and tissue without any effect on the vaccine immunogeneity. The results are someway indicative of the possible use of the interferon inductors for prevention of postvaccinal reactions to TEOVAC.

[Use of antibiotics in the treatment of ulceronecrotic tonsillitis due to vaccination by tabletted smallpox vaccine].

Clinical trials of tabletted pox vaccine revealed development of tonsillitis as a postvaccinal reaction in some volunteers: ulceronecrotic lesions in the tonsils, lymphadenitis, hyperthermia and asthenia. The main cause of the local inflammatory reactions was activation of the host opportunistic microflora including hemolytic streptococci and Staphylococcus aureus. For the treatment of the infectious complications systemic antimicrobials, such as benzylpenicillin, amoxicillin, ampicillin, cefazolin and fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin) in combination with the symptomatic therapy were used.
