The studies were carried out in the vivarium of FSBSI “Krasnodar Scientific Center of Animal Science and Veterinary Medicine”, in Krasnodar, on laying hens of Hisex Brown cross. The aim of the research was to study the effect of “Relikt A®» humic feed additive based on brown coal on productivity of laying hens of “Hisex Brown” cross. Four groups of young egg birds at the age of 130 days were formed for the research by the method of analogue pairs. The stabilization period lasted 10 days. Each group consisted of 40 heads. The experience lasted 3 months. It was found that there was a significant increase in the number of laid eggs per average laying hen by 14.9% in the group which received 0.06% of “Relic A®” of feed weight, compared to the control. Also, the application of the studied additive in the diets of laying hens of the groups that received 0.06% and 0.1% of the humic additive contributed to a decrease of feed costs for production of 10 eggs by 12.9 and 4.9%, respectively. Survivability of the population was maintained at the level of 100% in all groups throughout the entire experimental period. The oviposition intensity was significantly higher in the groups that received the humic supplement. The proceeds from the production of goods for a month increased in the control groups by 8.5; 14.9 and 4.8% according to the groups. The cost of 10 eggs decreased in the control groups by 8.3; 12.9 and 4.9%, respectively. The level of profitability also increased relative to the control in the second group by 6.53% and in the third by 10.13%, in the fourth by 3.82%. The feed additive based on brown coal can be considered as a natural feed ingredient; it is necessary to develop further a complex feed additive from natural components that fully satisfies the need of poultry for biologically active substances and micronutrients.

Averaging Techniques

Photosystem II (PSII) is different from all other reaction centers in that it splits water to evolve oxygen and hydrogen ions. This unique ability to evolve oxygen is partly due to three oxygen evolving polypeptides (OEPs) associated with the PSII complex. Freeze etching on grana derived insideout membranes revealed that the OEPs contribute to the observed tetrameric nature of the PSIl particle; when the OEPs are removed, a distinct dimer emerges. Thus, the surface of the PSII complex changes dramatically upon removal of these polypeptides. The atomic force microscope (AFM) is ideal for examining surface topography. The instrument provides a topographical view of individual PSII complexes, giving relatively high resolution three-dimensional information without image averaging techniques. In addition, the use of a fluid cell allows a biologically active sample to be maintained under fully hydrated and physiologically buffered conditions. The OEPs associated with PSII may be sequentially removed, thereby changing the surface of the complex by one polypeptide at a time.

And Function

Correlations between structure and function of biological macromolecules have been studied intensively for many years, mostly by indirect methods. High resolution electron microscopy is a unique tool which can provide such information directly by comparing the conformation of biopolymers in their biologically active and inactive state. We have correlated the structure and function of ribosomes, ribonucleoprotein particles which are the site of protein biosynthesis. 70S E. coli ribosomes, used in this experiment, are composed of two subunits - large (50S) and small (30S). The large subunit consists of 34 proteins and two different ribonucleic acid molecules. The small subunit contains 21 proteins and one RNA molecule. All proteins (with the exception of L7 and L12) are present in one copy per ribosome.This study deals with the changes in the fine structure of E. coli ribosomes depleted of proteins L7 and L12. These proteins are unique in many aspects.

Abstract. Chalcones are a type of flavonoids characterized by an α-β unsaturated structural element which may react with thiol groups to activate pathways such as the Nrf2-Keap-1 system. Naringenin chalcone is abundant in the diet but little is known about its bioavailability. In this work, the bioavailability of naringenin chalcone from tomatoes was investigated in a group of healthy men (n=10). After ingestion of 600 grams of tomatoes providing a single dose of 17.3 mg naringenin chalcone, 0.2 mg of naringenin, and 195 mg naringin plasma levels of free and conjugated naringenin and naringenin chalcone (glucuronide and sulfate) were analyzed by UHPLC-QTOF-MS at 0.5, 1, 3, and 6 h post-consumption. Plasma levels of conjugated naringenin increased to about 12 nmol/L with a maximum at about 3 h. Concentrations of free naringenin hardly elevated above baseline. Plasma levels of free and conjugated naringenin chalcone significantly increased. A maximum of the conjugated chalcone was reached at about 3 h after ingestion with an average concentration of about 0.5 nmol/L. No free chalcone was detectable at baseline but low amounts of the unconjugated compound could be detected with an average maximum of 0.8 nmol/L at about 1 h after ingestion. The data demonstrate that naringenin chalcone is bioavailable in humans from cherry tomatoes as a dietary source. However, availability is poor and intramolecular cyclisation as well as extended metabolism likely contribute to the inactivation of the reactive alpha-beta unsaturated reactive center as well as the excretion of the biologically active molecule, respectively.
