Statistics show negative forecasts of the demographic indicators of the Russian population including their size and health. The human habitat which has been deteriorating in recent decades causes cardinal changes in the assortment and variety of food and significantly contributes to the reduction of their biological value. The depletion of food products (FP) of vegetable and animal origin in vital mineral elements, vitamins and other physiologically active components represents a serious long-term threat to human health and the national security. Industrial methods of enriching FP have certain limitations: a narrow set of micronutrients, their interaction among themselves and accessibility for not all groups of the population. One way to reduce the negative consequences is through the introduction and breeding of new for Russia species and varieties of agricultural plants and organize a mass production of functional foods (FF) that contribute to the prevention and/or suspension of the development of dangerous diseases and slowing down the aging process. The solution of this multifaceted problem lies in changing the consumption structure of foods and their chemical composition conditioned by both the assortment of grown plant species and cultivars of food plants, as well as the composition and quality of soils, fertilizers and the conditions for crop cultivation. Taking into account the prevailing demographic situation in the Russian Federation, it is necessary to create a comprehensive national program for the allocation of new high-content sources of FF ingredients based on traditional and underutilized crops, cultivars and forms of cereal, vegetable and fruit crops and their inclusion in agricultural production as well as existing and newly created technological processes in food industry. The advantages of creating and developing a national system of the functional food in Russia will be: the improvement of public health and life expectancy, the reduction of the Federal Compulsory Medical Insurance Fund expenditures and the development of business structures involved in the production of the FF.

Production of plant products, including juices around the world increases continuously. In the fruit and vegetable juices contain a significant amount of monosaccharides (glucose and fructose), organic acids, vitamins, phenolic compounds, mineral substances and other biologically active components that determine the nutritional and dietary value. For the prevention of various diseases associated with impaired metabolic processes, we developed a new technology of preparation of food by blending juice of pumpkin, quince and persimmon. Thus prepared organic blended juice contains a substantial amount of free glucose and fructose, different phenolic compounds, a sufficient amount of organic acids, mineral elements, including iodine and other components that determine its nutritional and biological value. In prepared juices were evaluated the quantitative indicators of β-carotene, vitamin C, glucose and fructose, sucrose, starch, pectin substances. Also in the atomic absorbtion spectrometer Analyst 400 (PerkinElmer, USA) was analyzed content of the organic acids and phenolic compounds. Prepared juices were tested in accordance with 10 point scoring scale. It is established that all juices contain a sufficient amount of the minerals. In pumpkin and quince juices not contain iodine while it presents in sufficient amount in persimmon juice that’s why in the blended juice mineral in addition to mineral elements iodine are contained. In pumpkin and persimmon aliphatic acids are contained in small amount. For this reason during the blending process was used quince juice which is rich in aliphatic acids. The blended juice is light straw color, with delicious flavor, a slight astringent property and a balanced taste.

<p>Wastewater treatment always produces a large amount of sludge. The different uses of sludge disposal have negative consequences for the environment. Agricultural use may appear in some situations as an alternative to current solutions, both to optimize the degradation and recycling of organic and mineral elements. During this work, on the one hand, we investigated  the effect of sludge on the growth of turnip (Brassica rapa), a plant that tolerates metallic trace elements, especially lead (Liu et al., 2000) and which is considered a model plant in eco-toxicology (Sun et al., 2010), and on the other hand to determine if it has the potential to be included in phytoremediation systems.</p><p>The seeds were put in different substrates that contained three sludge doses: 20%, 40% and 60%, mixed with agricultural soil  which contained high levels  of metallic trace elements  exceeding the standard eligible concentration  by AFNOR. compared to  the soil, concentrations of potentiall toxic trace elements in sludge were lower than in soil. Morphological measurements were carried out during two months of planting, showing the positive effect of the sludge on the growth of the plant. The recorded biometric values (height, number of leaves, weight, rotation and height of the bulb) for all doses, far exceed those of control plants (100% soil), with high values recorded in the mixture of soil with  60% sludge.</p><p>The concentration of metallic trace elements in the different substrates and also in the leaves and the turnip bulb after two months of planting shows that the plant  accumulates and tolerates hight concentrations of elements  and can therefore be used as a phytoremediator for polluted soils. The highest levels of metal accumulation were observed on the substrate in the  soil mixture  with  60% sludge.</p><p> </p>

In modern world, the digitalisation of financial relations, the development of innovative technologies, and the emergence and use of cryptocurrencies for payments lead to an increase in the number of cyber frauds in the financial sector and their intellectualisation, increasing the illegal outflow of funds abroad. Ineffective decisions and inaction in counteracting these threats lead to large-scale negative consequences of both financial and social nature. The purpose of this study is to implement economic and mathematical modelling of the effectiveness of the national system for combatting cyber fraud and legalisation of criminal proceeds, which is based on the use of survival analysis methods. The study provides a bibliometric analysis of publications on the effectiveness of cyber fraud and combatting the legalisation of illegal funds, by building a bibliometric map of keywords, using VOSviewer software. This allowed identifying 7 clusters of basic categories of cyber fraud analysis, and changes in the vectors of research scientists showed a visual map of the contextual-temporal measurement of research into the effectiveness of cyber fraud in the publications of the Scopus database. The paper examines the effectiveness of the national system for combatting cyber fraud and money laundering based on survival tables. As a result of the study, the effectiveness of the national system for combatting cyber fraud and money laundering was analysed based on the Kaplan-Meier method. The study identified the dependences of the effectiveness of the national system for combatting cyber fraud and legalisation of criminal proceeds on the time interval after the discovery of violations. The practical value of applying the developed model is to form an analytical basis for further management decisions by the National Bank of Ukraine, the State Financial Monitoring Service, and the Security Service of Ukraine in terms of the effectiveness of the national system to combat cyber fraud and legalisation of criminal proceeds and the need to adjust it

Nutritional genomics, or nutrigenomics, is a promising multidisciplinary field that focuses on studying the interactions between nutritional factors, genetic factors and health outcomes. Its goal is to achieve more efficient individual dietary intervention strategies aimed at preventing disease, improving quality of life and achieving healthy aging. Scientific progress in nutrition, medical and food sciences is having an increasingly profound impact on consumer's approach to nutrition. There is a growing awareness that many chronic diseases are caused by unbalanced diet. In addition to disease prevention, the role of food as an agent for improving health has been proposed and a new class of food, so called functional food, has come into being. This term is used to indicate a food that contains some health-promoting components and not only traditional nutrients. From this point of view we could argue that many nutritional products belong to the family of functional food replete with bioactive peptides, antioxidants, probiotic bacteria, highly absorbable calcium, conjugated linoleic acid and other biologically active components. Knowledge gained from comparing diet/gene interactions in different populations may provide information needed to address the larger problem of global malnutrition and disease. .

Nutritional Analysis

.In this study, the nutrient components of the wild and the liquid suspension cultured Nostoc flagelliforme were determined and compared by atomic absorption method, HPLC and so on. The results indicated that the contents of crude proteins, crude fat, β-carotenes, vitamin C and mineral elements in N. flagelliforme cells from the suspension culture were higher than those in wild ones. 17 kinds of amino acids have been measured and the data showed that the contents of 13 kinds of them in cultured cells were higher than those in wild ones except aspartic acid, valine, isoleucine and arginine. Antitumor effect of the extracellular polysaccharides indicated that the extracellular polysaccharides could inhibit the growth of cervical carcinoma Hela cells. Their inhibition rates are 32.22% and 37.32%, respectively. This investigation showed that the liquid suspension cultivated N. flagellifome can be a substitute for the wild algae to be used as functional food resource.

ABSTRACT The importance of functional products on the world food market is increasing systematically. This has resulted from enhanced consumer awareness that health improvement may be attained through appropriate nutrition. Functional products are targeted to different groups of consumers who have increased nutrient requirements or are designed to improve specific functions of the organism. The market for functional food is also developing in Poland, but its growth rate is much slower than in other European countries. Moreover, knowledge on issues concerning functional food among Polish consumers is also low. Vegetables and mushrooms occupy an important position among functional food products due to their contents of many bioactive components that have a beneficial effect on human health and sense of well being. Vegetables in an everyday diet are natural sources of dietary fibre, vitamins, minerals, anthocyanin, carotenoids and substances with an anti-carcinogenic effect. The fruiting bodies of both cultivated and wild-growing mushrooms contain several active substances, including polysaccharides, triterpenoids, specific proteins and phenolic compounds. Their positive effect for humans results from the interaction of different active components contained in their fruiting bodies. Several health-promoting properties of mushrooms have been documented, including anti-cancer, immunostimulatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, antiviral and anti-diabetic effects. Consumers should have knowledge on the potential for health improvement thanks to the inclusion of vegetables and mushrooms in their everyday diets.
