[Determination of major metal cations in juices and nectars by capillary zone electrophoresis].

The method of determination of potassium, sodium, calcium and magnesium cations by capillary zone electrophoresis (using lithium cations as the internal standard) in the juices and nectars was advised. Optimal conditions for electrophoretic separation: pH value of the working buffer (pH 3.6), the concentration of imidazole (contrast agent 15-20 mmol/dm3), the concentration of 18-crown-6 ether (2 mmol/dm3).

[Diagnostics of ataxia-telangiectasia by the express-test found on the method of indirect immunofluorescence].

Ataxia-telangiectasia (AT) is a hereditary severe neurodegenerative disease developing, when mutations take place in both alleles of the atm gene, which encodes the key protein of the cellular response to DNA damage (DDR)--ATM proteinkinase. In response to the occurrence of double-strand DNA breaks, the ATM proteinkinase pass the autophosphorylation, and its active form--the phospho-ATM (P-ATM) appears in cells. In the nuclei of cells having the atm gene, P-ATM is revealed, being absent in cells with mutated forms of this gene, by means of the application of the modified method of indirect immunofluorescence.

[Hemodynamic indices of children's cardio-vascular system with due regard for their constitutional differences].

The paper presents the study of adaptation of cardio-vascular system of children from 5 to 7 to heightened physical activity with due regard for somatic peculiarities of human organism. A careful account is given to reographic and cyclo-ergometic methods of research under the physical load of heightened power capacities 1 and 1.5 watt per 1 kg body weight.

[Age dymamics of stable chromosome aberration frequency in humans with natural and pathological senescence].

The age dynamics of stable chromosome aberration (SCA) frequency was analysed by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) in human blood lymphocytes derived from donors, irradiated by low doses of ionizing radiation (Chernobyl clean-up workers, nuclear weapon testers, etc.) and patients with hereditary premature aging--Werner's syndrome and Hutchinson-Gilford's syndrome. It was found that the level of SCA was age-dependent and increased in irradiated persons.
