Proceeding from the idea of the readymade, Marko Ristic?s, Vane Bor?s and Dusan Matic?s collages regroup readymade pictorial and textual matrices according to the rules of free associative syntax. Everything that they collected cut out and pasted bears the hallmark of personal choice, i.e. objective chance, as the Surrealists would say. In the new structure of the collage, picture and text were of equal importance. However, we should not forget that both picture and text were only fragments, of different origin so that they could not function as autonomous elements in their own right nor could they establish logical interlinks. Cut and paste picture in Surrealism are primarily registered as visual wholes, in which the former principle of harmony has been substituted by the principle of discontinuity. In fact, they do not aspire to establish closed and unambiguous semantic structures either on a single paper or within a cycle, disregarding as they do conventional narrative and illustrative order in representing reality.

ABSTRACT The increased urinary excretion of testosterone and epitestosterone following the administration of HCG or Cyproterone to normal males was markedly reduced by simultaneous treatment with metopirone. In females with hirsutism of different origin the pathologically increased values of testosterone and epitestosterone in urine were also lowered considerably by 74 % and 86 %, respectively, after the administration of metopirone for a period of four days.

У статті проаналізовано місце феномену емоційної компетентності в становленні дискурсу життєтворення особистості. Відзначено, що її засадничими ознаками є відкритість і діалогічність, що фасилітують процеси життєтворчості в інтра- та інтерпсихічному просторі та сприяють здобуттю певних експірієнтальних «знань» і формуванню відповідних комунікативних «умінь». Отже, емоційна компетентність виконує функцію орієнтації в знаково-символічній реальності внутрішнього та зовнішнього середовища і, відповідно, бере участь у прийнятті рішень стосовно них. Це сприяє реалізації функції особистісного вибору у значущих обставинах життя. Вважається, що цей вибір повинен ґрунтуватися на домінуючій екзистенційній ідентичності та релевантно реалізовуватися на всіх її рівнях: базовому, характерологічному, ситуативному. В цьому контексті емоційна компетентність виступає в якості з’єднувальної ланки між ідентичністю та її зовнішньою поведінковою маніфестацією, в якій вона, власне, й проявляється. Інтегруючи первинні емоції, емоційна компетентність сприяє формуванню системи цінностей, мотивів і світоглядних орієнтацій особистості, а також сприяє їх коректному втіленню в практиці міжособистісного спілкування і, відповідно, конструювання дискурсу власного життя. У цьому полягає ключова роль емоційної компетентності в процесі життєтворення особистості. The article analyzes the role of emotional competence in establishing the discourse of personal life creation. It has been stated that its basic features are openness and readiness to dialog that facilitate life creation processes in the intra- and interpsychic space and promote acquirement of certain experiential "knowledge" as well as formation of relevant communicative "skills". So, emotional competence has a function of orienting in sign and symbol reality of the internal and external environment and, therefore, takes part in decision-making in respect thereof. This enables realization of the function of personal choice in significant life circumstances.  This choice is considered to be based on dominant existential identity and realized in the relevant manner at all its levels: basic, characterological, situational. In this sense emotional competence forms a link between identity and its outer behavioral manifestation.  While integrating primary emotions emotional competence facilitates formation of a system of values, motives and world view of personality as well as their correct implementation in the course of interpersonal communication and personal life discourse construction. This embodies the key role of emotional competence in the process of life creation of personality.

Генотипирование 51 быка голштинской породы немецкой и голландской селекции по гену каппа-казеина показало, что наибольшая частота встречаемости желательного аллеля CSN3В зафиксирована у быков-производителей голландской селекции (21,43%), что на 4,4% выше встречаемости его у немецких быков. Наиболее желательный генотип CSN3ВВ каппа-казеина в изучаемом поголовье не выявлен. Частота встречаемости генотипа CSN3АВ гена каппа-казеина у быков из Нидерландов составила 42,86%, или на 8,8% выше, чем у немецких быков. Изучено влияние быков голштинской породы разного происхождения, различающихся по генотипам гена каппа-казеина на динамику живой массы их дочерей от рождения до возраста 3-й лактации. Установлено, что от быков с генотипом CSN3АВ как немецкой, так и голландской селекции рождались телочки с большей живой массой; при этом дочери быков с генотипом CSN3АА лучше росли в период от 6 до 18 мес независимо от происхождения. Живая масса дочерей быков немецкой селекции при первом оплодотворении была одинаковой, в голландской селекции преимущество на 20,4 кг имели дочери быков с генотипом CSN3АВ гена каппа-казеина. Максимальную живую массу к возрасту 1-й лактации имели дочери быков немецкой селекции с генотипом CSN3АВ (521 кг), дочери быков голландской селекции с генотипом CSN3АА (520,5 кг). У коров 3-й лактации наивысшая живая масса была у обладателей генотипа CSN3АВ (568,5 кг и 581,3 кг), в группах немецкой и голландской селекции, соответственно.Genotyping of 51 Holstein bulls of German and Dutch breeding on the Kappa-casein gene showed that the highest frequency of occurrence of the desirable allele CSN3B was recorded in Dutch breeding bulls (21.43%), which is 4.4% higher than its occurrence in German bulls. Most desirable CSN3ВВ genotype of Kappa-casein in the studied population were not identified. Frequency of genotype CSN3АВ of the gene Kappa-casein bulls from the Netherlands amounted to 42,86%, or 8.8% higher than the German bulls. Influence of the bulls of golshtinsky breed of different origin differing on gene genotypes of a Kappa-casein on dynamics of live mass of their female calves from the birth to the age of the 3rd lactation is studied. It is established that heifers with higher live weight were born from the bulls with genotype CSN3АВ both the German and Dutch breeding; moreover, the female calves of bulls with genotype CSN3АА grow better in the period from 6 to 18 months regardless of origin. The live weight of female calves of bulls of the German selection at the first insemination was the same, in the Dutch selection female calves of bulls with genotype CSN3АВ of the gene Kappa-casein had advantage of 20.4 kg. The maximum live weight by the age of the 1st lactation had female calves of bulls of German selection with genotype CSN3AV — 521 kg, female calves of bulls of Dutch selection-with genotype CSN3AA (520.5) kg. — with a genotype of CSN3AA (520.5) kg had the maximum live weight. The 3rd lactation cows had the highest live weight with CSN3AB genotype — 568.5 kg and 581.3 kg, in groups of the German and Dutch selection, respectively.

In this research paper, development of a procedure of isolation of exopolysaccharides from frost-damaged beet and an analysis of structural and chemical composition of polymers isolated from sugar beet of different origin are presented. Total acid hydrolysis degradation integrated with HPAEC-ED analysis has been utilized to confirm the monomeric composition of the separated polysaccharides. The implementation of NMR spectral analysis and SEC chromatography of the structure of exopolysaccharides has been investigated. The results demonstrate that the chemical composition and structure of exopolysaccharides depend on their origin. Typical exopolysaccharides from Central European beet roots consist mainly of glucose monomers – and they have low branched structure – about 90% of α-1,6 linkage which is typical for dextran. The exopolysaccharides isolated from Swedish beet are characterized by 50–60% fructose monomers. They contain only about 65% α-1,6 linkages. Exopolysaccharides extracted from various origin beet differ in average molecular mass. The molecular distribution is not normal.

Premature birth is considered to be the consequence of independent alterations in the cervix and in the uterus. During labor, for full-term birth, as well as for premature birth, the cervix changes, from firm, long and closed, to soft and pliable, through a biochemical process characterized by the reshaping of the extracellular matrix and a growth of the tissue concentration of inflammatory mediators; the uterus proves an increase in contractility and sensitivity to endogenic hormones, such as oxytocin. Premature labor is associated with the premature activation of the release of cytokines in the decidua (mucosa lining uterus walls) and cervix. Interleukins IL-1 beta, IL-6, IL-8 and the alpha tumoral necrosis factor increase the production and activation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP-1, MMP-3 and MMP-9) and of cathepsin S, which digests the collagen from the extracellular matrix of the cervix, causing the wiping and softening of the cervix. These cytokines are released by leukocytes in the myometer, leading to the production of prostaglandins and oxytocin, which stimulate uterine contractions. Therefore, the cervical shortening represented by ultrasound is believed to represent premature cervical softening. The obstetrical approach of aspects related to premature birth are based, considerably, on the prognosis expected by the obstetrician regarding the survival of the premature new-born baby, as well as the therapeutic variants to be followed. And not only survival is important, of equal importance is also the quality of life of underweight, immature new-born babies, who are considerably affected both physically, and intellectually.
