Genetic diversity of porcine circoviruses 2 and 3 circulating among wild boars in the Moscow Region of Russia.

Porcine circoviruses (PCVs) are widely distributed in swine herds. PCV2, the significant swine pathogen, causes infections characterized by growth and development disorders, skin lesions, and respiratory distress. PCV3 has been circulating worldwide and can be associated with various clinical signs and disease developments.

Biofilm matrix proteome of clinical strain of P. aeruginosa isolated from bronchoalveolar lavage of patient in intensive care unit.

Extracellular matrix plays a pivotal role in biofilm biology and proposed as a potential target for therapeutics development. As matrix is responsible for some extracellular functions and influence bacterial cytotoxicity against eukaryotic cells, it must have unique protein composition. P.

species are common in tropical and subtropical zones in environmental samples according to numerous studies. Here, we describe an environmental case of resident in biofilms associated with spp. roots in Moscow region, Russia (warm-summer humid continental climate zone).

Scientometric analysis and mapping of documentary array on the issue "Oil and petroleum products in soil and groundwater".

The paper represents a scientometric analysis of a documentary array selected form Web of Science database on the issue "Oil and petroleum products in soil and groundwater." The analysis of the array shows its positive dynamics since the mid-1990s and especially active growth recently; names of the countries and organizations most actively working on the aforementioned problem; authors leading by the number of publications; periodicals and serial publications with high publication activity; scientific meetings that discussed the problems of soils and groundwater contamination by oil and oil products; and the most cited publications. The authors carry out visualization of the scientific field "Oil and petroleum products in soil and groundwater" using CiteSpace software.

EFFECT OF EXTRACHROMOSOMAL ELEMENTS OF HEREDITY ON TOXIC PROPERTIES OF YERSINIA PESTIS.

Aim: Elucidation of the role of extrachromosomal elements of heredity in manifestations of toxic properties of Yersinia pestis.

Materials And Methods: The study was carried out in vac- cine strain Y pestis EV76 (pMT1, pCD1, pPCP1) and non-plasmid variants of vaccine EV76 (pMT1⁻, pCD1⁻, pPCP1⁻) and virulent 231 (pMT1⁻, pCD1⁻, pPCP1⁻) strains of Y pestis. Presence of functionally active form of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in.
