The experiments as conducted in mice revealed radioprotective therapeutic effect of a preparation made from a plant Chamaenerion angustifolium. The preparation per oral administration in the course of 4 to 8 days post radiation at a dose range of 7.2 to 10.8 Gy promoted an increase in total amounts of blood leukocytes, marrow bone and spleen cells, and also some increase in survival rates among the animals.

The ancient proverb "disease enters through the mouth" elucidates the connection between food and pathogens, underscoring the pivotal role of food preservation in preventing foodborne diseases. Drawing inspiration from ancient food preservation techniques such as waxing and the use of spices, a novel approach combining the deprotonation-induced solid-liquid phase separation of natural polymer solutions with the solubilization of plant-derived antibacterial compounds has been developed. The "two-step soaking" construction strategy enables the creation of biodegradable and adaptable for hydrogel coatings with micro-scale thickness.
