The content of ubiquinone and vitamin E and functioning of ubiquinone-dependent enzyme systems in myocardial mitochondria and blood leucocytes of rats under experimental microfocal myocard damage, and the effect of vitamin E under given pathology have been studied. Direct dependence between the content of ubiquinone, vitamin E and activity of succinateubiquinone reductase system of blood leucocytes has been established. Vitamin E demonstrates the normalizing effect on the subjects of our study.

Marine biofilms were newly revealed as a bank of hidden microbial diversity and functional potential. In this study, a Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, oval and non-motile bacterium, designated LMIT008, was isolated from the biofilm of concrete breakwater structures located in the coastal area of Shantou, PR China. Strain LMIT008 was found to grow at salinities of 1-7% NaCl, at pH 5-8 and at temperatures 10-40 °C.

Five pink-pigmented bacterial strains, isolated from human skin and classified within the genus , were examined. Among them, four were identified as , while strain OT10 was deemed to be a potential novel species. Strain OT10 exhibited characteristics, such as Gram-stain-negative, oxidase positive, motile, strictly aerobic and rod shaped.

Three aerobic, pink-pigmented, Gram-negative, motile and rod-shaped bacterial strains, designated SD21, SI9 and SB2, were isolated from the phyllosphere of healthy litchis collected from three main producing sites of Guangdong Province, PR China. The 16S rRNA gene analysis showed that strains SD21 and SI9 belonged to the genus (.) with the highest similarity to DSM 19563 (98.
