[Changes in ion transport through membranes, ATPase activity and antibiotics effects in Enterococcus hirae after low intensity electromagnetic irradiation of 51,8 and 53,0 GHz frequencies].

It was ascertained that one-hour exposure of Enterococcus hirae ATCC9790 bacteria grown under anaerobe condition during sugar (glucose) fermentation to coherent electromagnetic irradiation (EMI) of 51,8 and 53,0 GHz frequencies or millimeter waves (5,79 and 5,66 mm wavelengths) of low-intensity (flux capacity of 0,06 mW/sm2) caused a significant decrease in energy-dependent H+ and K+ transports across the membranes of whole cells. Therewith, K+ influx into cells was appreciably less at the frequency of 53,0 GHz. Likewise, a significant decrease of total and N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-sensitive ATPase activity of the membrane vesicles occurred after EMI of 51,8 and 53,0 GHz.

[The action of low-intensity extremely high-freguency electromagnetic radiation on growth parameters for bacteria Enterococcus hirae].

It has been found that the exposure of Enterococcus hirae ATCC9790, grown under anaerobic conditions for 30 min or 1 h, to low-intensity (flux capacity 0.06 mW/sm2) coherent electromagnetic radiation (EMI) of extremely high-frequency 45 - 53 GHz), or millimeter waves causes a marked prolongation of the lag-growth phase and a decrease in their specific growth rate, the inhibitory effect increasing in the frequency range from 49 to 53 GHz. The effect enhanced as duration of expocure was encreased from 30 min to 1 h; however, further increase in exposure duration to 2 h did not cause an enhancement of the effect.

[Modeling modification of chemical mutagenesis in human cells. 1. Elimination of chromosomal aberrations].

Elimination of chromosome aberrations was studied in populations of dividing cells. For this purpose, on the basis of the corresponding theory of Carrano-Heddle assuming the Poisson distribution, a theory is advanced by the authors based on geometrical distribution, describing the distribution of lesions caused by the action of tioTEF. Parameters of elimination are obtained observed in case of addition of a protector, aminopropy-laminoethylthiophosphoric acid (APAETF) in a lymphocyte culture of human peripheral blood.

[Study of the cytogenetic activity of radioprotective agents in a human lymphocye culture. III].

Distribution of chromosome aberrations in cells of human lymphocyte cultures treated with mutagenic agent thioTEPA and protectors--aminopropylaminoethyl thiophosphoric acid (grammaphos) cystaphos and 5-metoxytriptamine (mexamine) was studied. It is shown that the empirical distribution of aberrations in cell is described by geometrical distribution.
