Standard and modern methods of physical and chemical analysis were used in the research. It is shown that the nutritional value of this raw material allows to maintain its nutritional value for a long time. Differential determination of carotenoid pigments contained in pumpkin fruits was carried out. The quantitative characteristics of carotenoids were established and the predominant carotenoid pigments for the studied pumpkin varieties were specified.

Table II : Quantitative determination of carbonyl compounds at different odour sources (concentrations in ppb) Rendering plant Gelatine plant neighbourhood neighbourhood Formaldehyde 40 16 Acetaldehyde 39 24 Acetone 36 73 Prcpanal 10 -Isobutyraldehyde 10 30 Pentanal 15 19 Hexanal 3.52 Heptanal 12.5 Octanal 10.5 Nonanal 1 2 acids (figure 7). However extractions always involve a serious decrease in sensitivity, while evaporation of the extract produces a solution in 0.1-0.5 ml of solvent, and only 1 pi of it can be brought in the gas chromatograph. Therefore work is in progress to enhance sensitivity by converting acids in­ to halogenated derivatives, which can be GC-analysed with the more sensitive electron-capture detector. For thiols a similar procedure is investigated as with aldehydes. One possibility is absorption of thiols in an alkaline solution and reaction with 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene, yielding 2,4-dinitrofenylsulfides, which are analysed by HPLC (9). Sane improvements on removal of reagents at the one hand and on separation of sane by-products on the other hand have to be achieved in order to in­ crease the sensitivity with another factor of ten. 5. CONCLUSION The actual scope and limitations of chemical analysis of odour show that all problems can be tackled as far as emission is concerned. For iititiission measurements seme progress is necessary, but there is no essential reason why chemical analysis would be unable to attain the desired sensitivity for all types of odorants. There is no doubt that in a few years the last dif­ ficulties will be solved. In order to achieve real control of odour nui­ sance, automatic measurement is necessary on a long time basis. There again seme technical development is to be expected. Does this mean that machines are going to decide if an odour is pre­ sent or not? By no means, while the population will always be the reference, and psychophysical measurements will be necessary to make chemical analysis possible.

Introduction. With the development of the food and processing industry, the matter of environmental pollution is becoming more and more acute. Environmental protection is based on the principle of rational use of natural resources and sustainable technology. Vegetable pomace is a secondary raw material; its amount depends on the production technology and equipment. The observed positive trend in the gross harvest of vegetables in open ground can increase the number of vegetable processing enterprises and the capacity of existing enterprises. Eventually, waste will start accumulating at processing sites, and it will have to be used as raw materials. The present paper features the content of biologically active substances in pomace of carrots and beets grown on the territory of the Siberian region and introduces options for their further use in functional foods. Study objects and methods. The research featured carrot pomace of the varieties Losinoostrovskaya, Nantskaya, and Queen of Autumn, as well as beet pomace of varieties Cylinder and Bordeaux. All the samples were harvested in the Kemerovo region in 2019. Determination of physical and chemical parameters was carried out using standard methods. Carotenoids, flavonoids, β-cyanine were studied using spectrometry and photocolorimetric method. Results and discussion. The experiment featured the content of bioactive substances in pomace of carrots and beets obtained during industrial processing. The content of carotenoids in carrots (mg of β-carotene per 100 g of dry weight): for Losinoostrovskaya variety – 23.56 ± 0.23; Nantskaya – 25.32 ± 0.18; Queen of Autumn – 20.78 ± 0.25. Flavonoid content (mg of catechol equivalent per 100 g of dry weight): Losinoostrovskaya – 12.02 ± 0.37; Nantskaya – 13.45 ± 0.56; Queen of Autumn – 11.50 ± 0.48. The content of β-cyanine in beets (mg per 100 g of dry weight): Cylinder – 100.0 ± 8.5; Bordeaux – 35.0 ± 1.8. The nutritional value of carrot and beet pomace with a mass fraction of moisture was 10%. The nutritional value of vegetable pomace is due to the high content of dietary fiber; therefore, the raw materials can be considered for functional food production. The content of biologically active substances in vegetable pomace (flavonoids, carotenoids, β-cyanines) can enhance the functional orientation of this secondary raw material when used in food technologies for the production of food of high nutritional value. Conclusion. The results obtained will make it possible to use the biochemical potential of plant raw materials in many aspects, as well as to obtain new functional food products, thereby expanding the range of healthy foods.

O objetivo deste artigo é a análise físico-química da cerâmica de estilo orientalizante das ilhas Cíclades e da Grécia de Leste, datada dos sécs. VII e VI a.C. Os locais de achado envolvidos são sobretudo Delos, Meios, Naxos, Paros, Sifnos e Tasos, quanto às ilhas, e Náucratis, Fikelura, Quios, Rodes, Mileto, no tocante ao Mediterrâneo Oriental. A moderna ceramografta tem insistido nas determinações das origens das argilas com que se confeccionaram os artefatos cerâmicos. Ora, nem sempre é possível detectar-se, apenas pela análise formal, técnica e estilística, que um determinado vaso cerâmico reflete modelos de um centro produtor mais importante, e esse aspecto é relevante também se levarmos em conta a intensidade do tráfico e das relações existentes sob várias formas — contatos de natureza múltipla — entre as culturas da Antigüidade Clássica. Esta inter-relação entre as cidades gregas provocou formas de imitação, de assimilação total ou parcial dos artefatos cerâmicos. De tal modo que o estudo das argilas pode identificar e caracterizar as produções locais distinguindo-as das produções externas. Tal análise das argilas só poderá oferecer um resultado razoável se combinado com o estudo do meio geológico local e, desta feita, o estudo petrográfico, a partir da cooperação íntima entre arqueólogos e geólogos, possibilita confirmar ou infirmar a existência de um facies particular da argila tida como local para as séries consideradas, a verificação também de ser este facies local característico de uma região ou de um grupo de regiões, estabelecendo-se a relação entre os componentes da argila e os recursos geológicos da área. Estas análises e suas interpretações sugerem um verdadeiro leque de possibilidades: toda questão dos contatos entre as cidades gregas do séc. VII a.C. e do séc. VI a.C. se ressente de um melhor conhecimento das origens dos vasos orientalizantes, comprovando formas de relações religiosas, políticas e econômicas entre regiões mais ou menos distanciadas do mundo mediterrânico.

The fruits of wild rose (Fructus Rosae) have been widely used in both traditional and officinal medicine for the long time. The pharmacological effect of the Rosehip medicine is related to the content of such biologically active compounds as: water-soluble (ascorbic acid) and fat-soluble (carotenoids) vitamins, as well as flavonoids (astragalin, isoquercitrin, tiliroside). Such medicine as Holosas, Carotolin and Rosehip syrup are obtained from the fruits of this plant. In addition, wild rose fruits are part of the various fees from which patients could prepare water infusions at home themselves. Regulatory documentation provides for the analysis of Rosehip raw materials three parameters: the content of ascorbic acid, the total carotenoids and flavonoids. The quantitative content of the total carotenoids in the fruits of the rosehip is regulated for the production of rosehip oil and Carotolin. However, in our opinion, the method of quantitative determination of the total carotenoids, described in the State Pharmacopoeia of the Russian Federation of the XIV edition, is too complicated and contains an unreasonably entered coefficient in the formula, leading to an overestimation of the analysis results in 10 times. We have developed the methodic of quantitative determination of the total carotenoids in Rosehip, that include single extraction of raw materials with hexane at room temperature and periodic mixing in the ratio of «raw material : extract» 1 : 30. Investigated solution there was obtained by diluting the hexane extract in the ratio of 2:25 and measured the optical density at wavelength 450 nm. Adjustments have been made to the formula for the calculating of the total carotenoids relating to the removal of the coefficient 10 unjustifiably entered into the pharmacopoeial methodic. It was determined that the content of the total carotenoids calculated on ß-carotene varied from 10.15 to 74.5 mg%. The metrological characteristics of the methodic indicate that the error of a single determination of the total carotenoids in the rosehip fruits with a 95% confidence level is ± 3.57%. Based on the results of the studies, a new test quality indicators “content of the total carotenoids at least 30 mg%” was substantiated instead of 300 mg%.

Despite the fact that the standards administering direct compression method have been notable for a long time, the system has as of late become progressively settled because of the presentation of excipients explicitly intended for direct compression method. These excipients are straightforwardly compressed by their own, yet can likewise be blended in with an enormous extent of medication substance with no noteworthy decay in tablet quality. Excipients with better usefulness can be acquired by growing brand-new substance excipients, recent evaluations of already available products, and novel blends of already available products. Any novel substance excipient being created as an excipient should experience different phases of administrative endorsement planned for tending to issues of wellbeing and poisonous quality, which is an extensive and exorbitant procedure. Furthermore, the excipient should experience a period of conventional advancement, which abbreviates the market selectiveness period. Co-processing is the alternative way novel excipients are approaching to showcase without experiencing the thorough security trial of a totally new concoction. It tends to be characterized as joining at least two built up excipients by a fitting procedure. The primary point of co-preparing is to acquire an item with added esteem identified with the proportion of its usefulness/cost. Advancement of co-handled straightforwardly compressible excipient beginnings with the determination of excipients can joined, their focused on extent, choice of readiness technique to get improved item with wanted both physical and chemical substance parameters and then it closes with limiting shirking with cluster to group varieties.
