Multispark discharge excited in water is described, and its useful physical and chemical properties are discussed in the light of some environmental issues. Discharge of such a type generates hot and dense plasmoids producing intense biologically active UV radiation and chemically active radicals, atoms, and molecules. Simultaneously, discharge creates strong hydrodynamic perturbations and cavitation bubbles. Particular attention is given to factors influencing on water purity with special reference to discharge application for effective sterilization of water and its cleaning of harmful chemicals. The gas discharges of this type show considerable promise as a means for solving some actual plasma-chemical problems. The above-mentioned discharge properties have been demonstrated in a series of laboratory experiments, which proved the efficiency of disinfection of potable and waste water, water cleaning of pesticide (herbicide) contaminations, and conversion (recovery) of natural methane.

Dendrimers are nanosized, symmetrical molecules in which a small atom or group of atoms is surrounded by the symmetric branches known as dendrons. The structure of dendrimers possesses the greatest impact on their physical and chemical properties. They grow outwards from the core-shell which further reacts with monomers having one reactive or two dormant molecules. Dendrimers’ unique characteristics such as hyperbranching, well-defined spherical structure, and high compatibility with the biological systems are responsible for their wide range of applications including medical and biomedical areas. Particularly, the dendrimers’ three-dimensional structure can incorporate a wide variety of drugs to form biologically active drug conjugates. In this review, we focus on the synthesis, mechanism of drug encapsulations in dendrimers, and their wide applications in drug delivery.

: Piperidine-based alkaloids are undoubtedly an important class of biologically active natural products. When a unique group like trifluoromethyl (Tfm) is added to an active compound, it significantly ameliorates its bioactivity, bioavailability, physical and chemical properties. Many fluorination and trifluoromethylation methods have been reported. In the present paper, we have shown that among all other trifluoromethylation pathways, Mannich reaction also has the great tendency to introduce a Tfm group in a saturated or aromatic heterocyclic compound. Applications of this reaction are elaborated in preparing several derivatives of piperidine base alkaloids with trifluoromethyl at α-position. Furthermore, the substitution at C-4 and C-6 was successfully achieved with variety of saturated and aromatic groups.

Ukraine takes the second place in Europe for the dissemination of cancer. Ukrainian pharmaceutical market practically doesn’t have domestic anti-tumor drugs. That’s why, many scientists of pharmaceutical industry work in this direction.  The searching of biologically active substances among derivatives of 1,2,4-triazole is actually for today. Anastrozole and Letrozole are enough known like anti-tumor drugs which contain in their structures the core of 1,2,4-triazole and nitrile groups. The aim of our work is purposeful synthesis a number of new highly effective compounds 2-((5-(phenoxymethylene)-4-R-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-yl)thio)acetonitriles and 2-, 3-, 4-(((5-(phenoxymethylene)-4-R-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-yl)thio)methyl)benzo-nitriles, research of its physical and chemical properties. The 5-(phenoxymethylene)-4-R-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiones, which contain alkyl- and arylnitrile groups has been synthesized and its effective methods obtaining have been set. The structure of synthesized compounds has been confirmed by modern complex of physical and chemical methods of analysis. The synthesized compounds with alkyl- and arylnitrile functional groups will become the basis for further modification of the structure to increase results or expand the range of the biological activity.

Biomimetics involves investigation of structure, function, and methods of synthesis of biological composite materials. The goal is to apply this information to the design and synthesis of materials for engineering applications.Properties of engineering materials are structure sensitive through the whole spectrum of dimensions from nanometer to macro scale. The goal in designing and processing of technological materials, therefore, is to control microstructural evolution at each of these dimensions so as to achieve predictable physical and chemical properties. Control at each successive level of dimension, however, is a major challenge as is the retention of integrity between successive levels. Engineering materials are rarely fabricated to achieve more than a few of the desired properties and the synthesis techniques usually involve high temperature or low pressure conditions that are energy inefficient and environmentally damaging.In contrast to human-made materials, organisms synthesize composites whose intricate structures are more controlled at each scale and hierarchical order.

Organic farming is one of the management strategies that improve productivity of marginal uplands. The study aimed to: (1) evaluate effects of various organic-based fertilizers on the growth and yield of corn; (2) determine the appropriate combination for optimum yield; and (3) assess changes on the soil physical and chemical properties. Experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design, with 3 replications and 7 treatments, namely; T0=(0-0-0); T1=1t ha-1 Evans + 45-30-30kg N, P2O5, K2O ha-1; T2=t ha-1 Wellgrow + 45-30-30kg N, P2O5, K2O ha-1; T3=15t ha-1 chicken dung; T4=10t ha-1 chicken dung + 45-30-30kg N, P2O5, K2O ha-1; T5=15t ha-1 Vermicast; and T6=10t ha-1 Vermicast + 45-30-30kg N, P2O5, K2O ha-1. Application of organic-based fertilizers with or without inorganic fertilizers promoted growth of corn than the control. But due to high infestation of corn silk beetle(Monolepta bifasciata Horns), its grain yield was greatly affected. In the second cropping, except for Evans, any of these fertilizers applied alone or combined with 45-30-30kg N, P2O5, K2O ha-1 appeared appropriate in increasing corn earyield. Soil physical and chemical properties changed with addition of organic fertilizers. While bulk density decreased irrespective of treatments, pH, total N, available P and exchangeable K generally increased more with chicken dung application.
