Assessment of Hearing and Vestibular Functions in a Post-COVID-19 Patient: A Clinical Case Study.

SARS-CoV-2 infection may cause such complications as post-COVID-19 syndrome, which includes chronic fatigue, myalgia, arthralgia, as well as a variety of neurological manifestations, e.g., neuropathy of small fibers, hearing and vestibular dysfunction, and cognitive impairment.

[Application of immunochemical and chromatographic techniques for monitoring of trichothecene mycotoxins type A in grains].

A sensitive HPLC-MS technique after immunoaffinity clean-up has been developed for the simultaneous determination of T-2 and HT-2 toxins of in the food grains. The limit of detection of method was 0,002 mg/kg for T-2 toxin and 0,005 mg/kg for HT-2 toxin. Comparison of existing immunochemical and chromatographic techniques of trichothecenes type A determination in grains was made.

[Study of toxigenic properties of mycelium fungi--citrinin producents, isolated from foods].

Results of experimental researches in the modelling systems simulating infringements of temperature modes of storage of a grain, shown an opportunity of intensive accumulation mycotoxin citrinin in infected by toxigenic molds Penicillium citrinum grains of rice and wheat are submitted. Most high levels of citrinin were found out as a result of growth P. citrinum in rice, achieving 300-350 mg/kg of a grain during 21 days.

[Determination of dehydroacetic acid and its sodium salt in food products and polymeric packing materials].

HPLC method of determination of dehydroacetic acid and its sodium salt in food products and polymeric packing materials has been developed. The migration of DGA from food-contacting materials to food matrix has been investigated.

[The method of the simultaneous determination of the citrinin and ochratoxin A content in cereals and cereal products].

The simplifyed method of simultaneous determination of the citrinin (CT) and ochratoxin A (OTA) in cereals is described. The extraction of mycotoxins was carried out by small volumes of solvents (water/aceton/hexane) without additional sample clean up and concentration. The extracts were analysed by HPLC using mixture of methanol/ethylacetate/phosphoric acid, pH 2.
