Underground spaces in town centres present a big attraction for investors. However, they put special requirements to the internal environment. Those requirements can be fulfilled by means of daylighting. Examples of lighting of underground spaces are discussed. It is shown that the common systems of natural lighting are not always possible to use and cause big heat losses. Hollow light guide pipes allow avoid the shortcomings of common daylight systems. Method of calculation of daylight factors from hollow light guide pipes is shown. The results of calculation of daylight factors under the light guide pipes of different diameters in the different depths are presented.

Currently, medical technologies based on natural factors are widely used in practical health care, including the effect of the medicinal properties of the mineral silvinite (natural potassium salts of the Verkhnekamsk Deposit) on the patient’s body. However, there is no regulatory framework for sanitary control of such devices. The aim of the study was to develop methodological approaches to the hygienic assessment of silvinite complexes. The analysis of the current regulations used in carrying out hygienic supervision and preventive measures in the salt structures that are part of the silvinite complexes is carried out. Based on long-term hygienic studies of silvinite structures by the salt treatment Center of Perm medical University. academician E. A. Wagner together with LLC NPK «Medical climate» (Tchaikovsky) developed and implemented sanitary and hygienic requirements for the created salt complexes. It is a complex of structural divisions, including the place of stay and treatment of patients, as well as the salt device. All units must meet the requirements of current sanitary rules and regulations. It is necessary to conduct a thorough survey of the location of the future salt complex. Optimal conditions of the internal environment in silvinite structures are determined by a special air preparation system consisting of air conditioning and cleaning of the external air using a filter-saturator. The special hygienic requirements of the sylvinite furniture in the room, the decoration of walls, ceilings and floors. The room must be equipped with radio equipment and a video camera for monitoring patients. Full expanded hygienic control of the parameters of the medical environment of silvinite premises should be carried out at least once a year according to the following indicators: microclimate parameters, content of multicomponent fine salt aerosol, aeroionic composition of the air environment, radiation background, microbial contamination of the internal environment, noise and light levels. Thus, increasing the use of salt therapy requires further research to improve the sanitary and hygienic control of silvinite complexes.

Perfection of mercantile business activity assumes active use of marketing and commercial toolkit. The tools system should be actualized taking into account the influence of the external and internal environment factors. New conditions of conducting entrepreneurial activity require modernization and optimization of applied toolkit.

Active Substances

Metabolism consists of the sum of anabolism (construction) and catabolism (destruction) with the release of energy, and achieving a fairly constant internal environment (homeostasis). The aquatic external environment favours differences from mammalian pathways of excretion and requires osmoregulatory adjustments for fresh water and seawater though some taxa, notably marine elasmobranchs, avoid osmoregulatory problems by retaining osmotically active substances such as urea, and molecules protecting tissues from urea damage. Ion regulation may occur through chloride cells of the gills. Most fish are not temperature regulators but a few are regional heterotherms, conserving heat internally. The liver has many roles in metabolism, including in some fish the synthesis of antifreeze seasonally. Maturing females synthesize yolk proteins in the liver. Energy storage may include the liver and, surprisingly, white muscle. Fish growth can be indeterminate and highly variable, with very short (annual) life cycles or extremely long cycles with late and/or intermittent reproduction.

The Impact

Vibrations caused by blasting works have an impact not only on buildings but also the internal environment of the buildings. If these buildings are situated in the surroundings of quarries, the citizens can perceive these vibrations negatively. By applying an appropriate millisecond timing interval, it is possible to lower the intensity of vibrations to the levels that the citizens will not perceive as negative effects inside the buildings. The limit values for this vibration intensity have not been defined to date. For the protection of the building from the vibrations, normative values of the particle velocity and frequency were determined. Hygienic standards for the inhabitants of the housing were applied, which assessed the impact of the vibration on humans through the measurement of the vibration acceleration in the housing. In this article, the results of the research carried out in Trebejov Quarry are presented. The experimental blasts carried out in Trebejov Quarry proved that the reduction in the vibration intensity under the value 2 mm.s−1 led to the satisfaction of the inhabitants.

The article covers different application aspects of the products made of polyethylene foam within the scope of insulation systems of framed and frameless constructions used in the quality of storage premises, logistic objects, agricultural storage facilities and livestock facilities as well as framed residential buildings. Agricultural storage facilities, livestock facilities, covered parking areas for agricultural machinery and some types of storage premises represent the agricultural construction facilities which require the established protection systems against excessive heat losses as well as monitoring of the state of the internal environment - its temperature and humidity. These structures are built based on one of three schemes: frameless type, framed type with a rigid coating and framed type with a tent coating. The insulation of buildings constructed before 2010 is predominantly characterized by usage of mineral wool plates (with a protective facade covering) or sandwich panels. The main problem of suchlike coverings is the impossibility of creating an insulating coating without joints, seams or gapless junctions to the base. Mineral wool plates, in case of destruction of the waterproof coating, contact with water and firstly lose their thermal and physical properties, and then – come to the destruction themselves. Sandwich panels are more resistant to weather impacts, but create a coating with huge quantity of cold bridges and paths of convective air transfer through gaps or openings.

Treatment Interaction

Traditionally genotype by environment interaction studies have dealt with changes in external environment. In this experiment an attempt was made to alter internal environment and keep external environment constant. Cockerels from each of six different commercial stocks were injected with 0,1,2 and 4 mgs hydrocortisone acetate per 100 gms body weight at 14 days of age. This type of hormonal treatment was shown to release additional variability in growth without producing any stock-treatment interaction at the level of means. The results indicate a possible new avenue for future research.
