Abstract For different bacterial preservation techniques, there is no single method applicable for all bacteria. This study aimed to assess the viability of seven species/species groups of clinical bacteria isolates on the long-term storage (more than 5 years) by using Tryptic Soy Broth with 15% glycerol in the deep freezer (-70 to -80°C). A total 10,654 clinical bacteria isolates used as samples in this study. The isolates consisted of seven species/species groups (i.e. Escherichia coli, Campylobacter spp, Shigella spp, Vibrio spp, Salmonella spp, Aeromonas hydrophila, and Neisseria gonorhoeae). The isolates were collected from some previous studies and preserved in the Tryptic Soy Broth (TSB) with 15% glycerol and stored in the deep freezer (-70 to -80°C) for more than five years. The samples were revived on the suitable medium to evaluate the viability of bacteria. Identification conducted by microscopic examination, biochemical test, and latex agglutination. The study showed that the viability of Salmonella spp, Shigella spp, Aeromonas hydrophila and E. coli was 100%, while Campylobacter spp, Vibrio spp, and N. gonorhoeae were 66.7%, 66.4%, and 52.5% respectively. We concluded that viability of Salmonella spp, Shigella spp, A. hydrophila, and E. coli was optimum thus better than Campylobacter spp, Vibrio spp, and N. gonorhoeae for more than 5 years storage by using TSB with 15% glycerol in the deep freezer (-70 to -80 °C).

To determine if mouse spermatozoa could be preserved long-term without using liquid nitrogen, mouse spermatozoa in trehalose–EGTA solution were partially evaporatively dried under nitrogen gas (5 min at flow rate10 l/min) and stored for 1 week and 5 months at 4, −20, and −80 °C before intracytoplasmic sperm injection. Fertilization rates were neither different with spermatozoa stored at 4, −20, or −80 °C for 1 week or 1, 3, and 5 months respectively, nor blastocyst formation rates with spermatozoa stored for 1 week and 1 month. However, spermatozoa stored at 4 and −20 °C for 3 months resulted in fewer blastocysts (35.1 and 54.3% respectively) when compared with spermatozoa stored at −80 °C (74.4%). Blastocyst formation rates using spermatozoa stored for 5 months at −20 °C (57.4%) or −80 °C (74.5%) were not significantly different from those stored for 3 months at the same temperatures respectively, but were significantly better than those stored for 5 months at 4 °C (10.2%). Blastocysts derived from spermatozoa stored for 3 and 5 months at −20 and −80 °C respectively, were then transferred to pseudopregnant mothers to develop into healthy liveborn offspring. No significant differences were found in embryo transfer rates (number of pups born/number of embryos transferred), weaning rates, or sex ratios of resultant pups, which were healthy and reproductively sound. These results demonstrate for the first time that partially evaporatively dried mouse spermatozoa in trehalose–EGTA solution can be preserved for long term at −20 and −80 °C. The possibility that the storage temperature must be less than the glass transition temperature is discussed.

A model of moisture movement in wood is presented in this paper in a two-dimensional-in-space formulation. The finite-difference technique has been used in order to obtain the solution of the problem. The model was applied to predict the moisture content in sawn boards from pine during long term storage under outdoor climatic conditions. The satisfactory agreement between the numerical solution and experimental data was obtained.

The introduction and active use of information transmission and storage systems in the Ministry of Defense (MoD) of Ukraine form the need to develop ways of guaranteed removal of data from media after their use or long-term storage. Such a task is an essential component of the functioning of any information security system. The article analyzes the problems of guaranteed destruction of information on magnetic media. An overview of approaches to the guaranteed destruction of information on magnetic media of different types is presented, and partial estimates of the effectiveness of their application are given by some generally accepted indicators of performance evaluation. The article also describes the classification of methods of destruction of information depending on the influence on its medium. The results of the analysis revealed the main problems of application of software methods and methods of demagnetization of the information carrier. The issue of guaranteed destruction of information from modern SSD devices, which are actively used in the formation of new systems of information accumulation and processing, became particularly relevant in the article. In today's conditions of development of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, methods of mechanical and thermal destruction are more commonly used today. In the medium term, the vector of the use of information elimination methods will change towards the methods of physical impact by the pulsed magnetic field and the software methods that allow to store the information storage device, but this today requires specialists to develop new ways of protecting information in order to avoid its leakage.
