To determine the content of the dominant groups of biologically active substances (tannins, polysaccharides, flavonoids) and bioelements in aerial parts of ten species of the Rosaceae family, which grows in Siberia: Potentilla anserina L., P. longifolia Willd., P. canescens Besser, P. bifurca L., P. tergemina Sojak, P. argentea L., P. goldbachii Rupr., P. sericea Dulac., Agrimonia pilosa Ledeb., Filipendula ulmaria (L.) Maxim. To determine the concentrations of essential and conditionally essential trace elements defined by the method of atomic emission spectroscopy. First identified plants of the genus Potentilla (P. canescens, P. tergemina) and Filipendula (F. ulmaria), accumulate significant quantities of lithium – 14,6, and 11,0 13,3 mg/kg, respectively, making them promising for further studies on the isolation and identification of active substances with the aim of creating innovative drugs. Investigated the content of heavy metals (Pb, Hg, As, Cd), the values of which meets regulatory requirements. Useful properties of the examined species family Rosaceae are determined by the content of biologically active substances (flavonoids, polysaccharides, tannins) and the complex of macro - and micronutrients. It is revealed that a dominant position in the spectrum belongs to the macronutrients potassium, calcium and magnesium (4,300 to 27,000 mg/kg). Among micronutrients the leading role is copper, followed by iron, silicon and manganese having important biological value, in particular, involved in the process of hematopoiesis.

Using the methods of arc atomic emission spectrometry (AAES), atomic emission flame photometry (AEFP), atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) and mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), the elemental composition of the aerial part of widely used in medical practice Alfredia cernua and Filipendula ulmaria, extracts and fractions obtained from them, is investigated. It was shown that not only biologically active substances, but also mineral elements are extracted by extractants, which may be due both to the formation of complexes with biologically active substances and affinity for extractants. Therefore, the elemental composition must be considered as an important component of plant extracts and medicinal products obtained from them. Simultaneously with biologically active substances in ethanol extracts there is an accumulation of not only biogenic, but also toxic elements, which degree of extraction is often higher. It increases even more during the transition from periodic to countercurrent extraction, which allows to obtain extracts with the highest yield of biologically active substances. Since the enriched extract is directly used to obtain the dosage form, a preliminary elemental analysis is necessary. Analytical control of the content of TM is also necessary when choosing the place of growth of plants raw materials, which are used to create medicinal herbal remedies.

The survey is directed at revealing of the natural reserves of 9 species of Rosaceae family in the Southern Siberia: Agrimonia pilosa Ledeb., Alchemilla vulgaris L. s.l., Filipendula ulmaria (L.) Maxim., F. vulgaris Moench., F. stepposa Juz., and Pentaphylloides fruticosa (L.) O. Schwarz. Raw materials of these species are considered as a strategically important source of biologically active substances with antiviral activity being perspective for pharmaceutic branch. For habitats from some regions of Southern Siberia, the resource indicators of these species are given, such as the coefficient of shrinkage, productivity, area of thickets and biological reserves.

The identification of the diversity of microscopic fungi of lithobiont communities of the Argentine Islands in specimens collected during the 22nd Ukrainian Antarctic Expedition was the purpose of this work. Samples of rock, soil, mosses and lichens of rock micro-habitats of “Crustose lichen sub-formation and fruticose lichen and moss cushion sub-formation” were used in the work. These samples were used for extracting and cultivation of filamentous fungi on dense nutrient media. Determination of physiological and biochemical characteristics and identification of yeast-like fungi were performed using a microbiological analyser ‘Vitek-2’ (‘Bio Merieux’, France). Cultivation of microorganisms was carried out at temperatures from +2 to +37 °C. In results cultures of microscopic fungi of Zygomycota (Mucor circinelloides), Ascomycota (species of the genera cf. Tlielebolus, Talaromyces), representatives of the Anamorphic fungi group (Geomyces pannorum, species of the genera Alternaria, Acremonium, Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Cladosporium) were isolated from Antarctic samples. Microscopic fungi Penicillium spp. were dominated after the frequency in the studied samples (54.5%). Rhodotorula rubra and Candida sp. among isolated yeast fungi, and dark pigmented fungi represented by Aureobasidium pulhdans and Exophiala spp. were identified. The biological properties of a number of isolated fungi (the potential ability to synthesise important biologically active substances: melanins, carotenoids, lipids) are characterised. Mycobiota of rock communities of Argentine Islands is rich on filamentous and yeast fungi similarly to other regions of Antarctica. A number of fungi investigated are potentially able to synthesise biologically active substances. The dark pigmented species of the genera Cladosporium, Exophiala, Aureobasidium pulhdans, capable of melanin synthesis; ‘red’ yeast Rhodotorula rubra (carotenoid producers and resistant to toxic metals); Mucor circinelloides and Geomyces pannorum, lipid producers, are among these fungi. Yeast-like fungi assimilated a wide range of carbohydrates, which will allow them to be further used for cultivation in laboratory and process conditions. The collection of technologically promising strains of microorganisms, part of the Culture Collection of Fungi at Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv (Ukraine), is updated with isolated species (strains) of filamentous fungi and yeast – potential producers of biologically active substances, obtained within this study.
