From the point of view of solving the problem of feed supply in fur farming, the use of biologically active additives that normalize the protein balance is of great interest. The hydrolyzate obtained by the technology developed by us from the waste of fur farming is a highly digestible protein, is characterized by a high content of amine nitrogen, and contains all non-replaceable amino acids. The introduction of hydrolyzate from sable muscle tissue into the main diet of minks allowed to reduce by 1.3 times the number of missing female minks, to increase the yield of mink puppies per main female, increase the viability of the offspring. The efficiency of feeding the protein hydrolyzate in the diet of caged minks was assessed by the commercial properties of the skins. The most important indicators are the thickness of the skin and the ratio of its layers, on which the duration of processing of raw materials during production operations and indicators of the physical and mechanical properties of the skins depend. Analysis of the obtained measurements made it possible to conclude that feeding with protein hydrolyzate led to an increase in the thickness of the skin of various topographic areas of mink skins. The maximum value of the epidermis thickness was observed on the rump part, the minimum - on the spinal region, while the maximum number of guard hairs was noted on the spinal part, the minimum - on the lateral part of the mink skins. Thus, the results obtained indicate the effectiveness of using a protein hydrolyzate to stimulate the reproductive function of minks and improve the commercial properties of animal skins.

Medicinal plants contain biologically active substances that have a physiological effect on the human body. In the territory of Ukraine, 15 of the most important medicinal plants grow from a medical point of view, among which are Melissa officinalis L and Сalendula officinalis. Micronutrients are necessary for the body in small quantities, not being a source of energy, they take part in their assimilation, as well as in the regulation of various functions and the implementation of the processes of growth and development of the human body. The study aims to establish the micronutrient profile of extracts and infusions from medicinal raw materials – Сalendula officinalis and Melissa officinalis. The established micronutrient profile includes data on the content of such macro- and microelements as calcium, potassium, sodium, iron, zinc, and copper in extracts and infusions from Melissa officinalis L officinalis L and Сalendula officinalis. Sodium predominates from certain macronutrients, the superiority of which is manifested in Сalendula officinalis when infused. A large amount of calcium also passes into the aqueous-alcoholic infusion from Сalendula officinalis. Copper and zinc prevail among the determined microelements in water extracts of Сalendula officinalis. Comparing the results obtained, we can say in the affirmative about the micro- and macro elements that have passed into extracts that Сalendula officinalis is richer in these substances. Because infusions and extracts are recommended to be added as an additional ingredient to vegetable and fruit juices, their positive infusion on the human body will increase the recommended daily requirement of potassium and sodium. Based on the results of this study, extracts and infusions of Melissa officinalis L and Сalendula officinalis can be considered as an essential source of micronutrients for enriching fruit and vegetable juices in canned food for health purposes

At present, the problem of rational nutrition for the elderly is extremely urgent, since every fourth Ukrainian is a retiree by age. Rationally built nutrition for such people contributes to the better functioning of all important organs and systems, increases the level of the body's protective response to adverse environmental factors. Various ways to improve the product to give it a herodetic orientation are offered. According to the concept of balanced nutrition, the structure of the diet of an aging person and its energy value should be correlated with the functional state of the enzyme systems responsible for the assimilation of food, taking into account the physiological needs of the body for nutrients and energy, according to age and health, which is especially important for seniors and seniors. From the point of view of gerontology and old age hygiene, such trends in society dictate the need for accurate and deep knowledge of aging processes at all levels of biological organization, from molecular to holistic organism in order to develop a nutritional diet that promotes aging, preventing aging lifestyle. The need for rational nutrition of the elderly puts forward the task of creating an assortment of products nutritionally adequate to the specifics of their nutrition, taking into account the most common pathologies. In the production of hereditary products, the most appropriate is the partial replacement of traditional raw materials with non-traditional, the introduction of dietary and biologically-active additives, the use of secondary raw materials and non-traditional vegetable (medicinal plants, berry syrups, vegetable oils). This makes it possible to create balanced for all criteria products for the elderly, whose production takes into account all age characteristics.

The efficiency of all industries should be assessed from the point of view of the balance between the weight of the main product and the volume of generated industrial waste, therefore, the aim of the present work is ─ to the receiving using the tonnage of waste fuel and energy complex of ash and slag material and waste chemistry, spent catalyst, one of the most material-intensive products of the national economy ─ a ce-ramic brick on the basis of beidellite clay. Fuel and energy complex is one of the main "pollutants" of the en-vironment. These are emissions into the atmosphere (48% of all emissions into the atmosphere), wastewater discharges (36% of all discharges), as well as the formation of solid waste (30% of all solid pollutants). The basic technical properties of ash and slag material used as autosites and burnable additive and spent cata-lyst, is used as aluminum-containing autosites to increase marochetti brick. Studies have shown that the spent catalyst IM-2201 Novokuibyshevsk petrochemical plant refers to nanotechnology raw materials. The effect of the introduction of nanoscale particles is fundamentally expressed in the fact that not only an additional in-terface appears in the system, but also a carrier of quantum mechanical manifestations. The presence of na-noscale particles in the system increases the volume of adsorption and chemisorption bound water and re-duces the volume of capillary-bound and free water, which leads to an increase in the plasticity of the ceram-ic mass and strength parameters. Ceramic brick with high physical and mechanical properties is obtained on the basis of beidellite clay with the use of ash-slag material and spent catalyst. Innovative proposals for the use of waste fuel and energy complex and petrochemical industry in the production of ceramic bricks, the novelty of which is confirmed by two Patents of the Russian Federation.

Целью данной работы является раскрыть механизмы воздействия кавитации на биологические клетки для создания новых технологий и оборудования, а также усовершенствования уже существующих. Анализ современной литературы показал, что процесс кавитации широко используется в пищевой, химической, фармацевтической, биологической промышленности и является эффективным с экологической, энергетической точки зрения. При этом, стоит отметить, что использования кавитации в технологиях существенно сокращает время ведения процесса обработки, а также минимизирует температурное воздействие, по сравнению с традиционными технологиями, что особенно актуально при работе с биологически-активными веществами. Кавитационные процессы используются в технологиях экстракции растительного сырья, стерилизации жидкостных сред как в пищевой промышленности, так и в технологиях водоподготовки и водоочистки. Не смотря, на то, что кавитацию широко применяют на практике, литературный анализ показал, что механизмы воздействия на клетки изучены не в полной мере. В статье предложены механизмы и их теоретическое обоснование для процесса экстракции и стерилизации, определены теплофизические параметры необходимые для ведения того или иного процесса. В зависимости от сферы применения кавитации ее интенсивность и механизм воздействия должны определяться свойствами целевого продукта. Соответственно, для отдельных целей параметры ведения процесса должны обеспечить полное разрушение клетки, а для других необходимо и достаточно повысить проницаемость мембраны клетки для выхода целевого компонента. В связи с этим, существует необходимость тонкого подбора теплофизических параметров процесса, а также технологического оборудования, соответственно.The purpose of this work is to found the mechanisms of the effect of cavitation on biological cells for the creation of new technologies and equipment, as well as the improvement of existing ones. Analysis of present literature has shown that the process of cavitation is widely used in the food, chemical, pharmaceutical, and biological industries and is effective from an ecological, energy point of view. At the same time, it should be noted that the use of cavitation in technologies significantly reduces the processing time, as well as minimizes the temperature effect, in comparison with traditional technologies, which is especially important for biologically active substances. Cavitation processes are used in technologies of extraction of plant raw materials, sterilization of liquid media both in the food industry, and in technologies of water treatment and water purification. Despite the fact that cavitation is widely used in practice, literary analysis has shown that mechanisms of action on cells have not been fully studied. Novel studies presents mechanisms, which ascertain fact of cell wall full or partially distruction, but not explain reasons of this. There is not explaining of the decrease in internal massexchange resistances. The article proposes mechanisms and their theoretical justification for the extraction and sterilization process, and the thermophysical parameters necessary for conducting a particular process are determined.   Cavitation intensity and mechanism of action should be determined by the properties of the target product and should be depend on the scope of application. So, for some purposes, the process parameters must ensure complete destruction of the cell, while for others it is necessary and sufficient to increase the permeability of the cell membrane to yield the target component. In this regard, there is a need for a thin adjustment of thermophysical process parameters, as well as technological equipment, respectively..

Польза для здоровья от ферментированных функциональных продуктов выражается непосредственно, через взаимодействие живых микроорганизмов, поступивших в организм вместе с пищевыми продуктами или с биологически активными добавками (пробиотический эффект), или косвенно, в результате потребления микробных метаболитов, синтезируемых в процессе ферментирования (биогенный эффект). Целый ряд исследований посвящен потенциалу процесса ферментирования для создания экономически эффективного производства пищевых продуктов с новыми функциональными и потребительскими свойствами. Присутствие в составе субстрата достаточного количества нутриентов (преимущественно сахаров) играет решающую роль в развитии молочнокислых микроорганизмов в процессе ферментирования. В этой связи были исследованы динамики концентрации глюкозы и фруктозы в результате направленной углеводной корректировки субстрата, приготовленного из белокочанной капусты сорта Парус. Установлено, что оптимальным, с точки зрения деструкции сахаров, является консорциум молочнокислых микроорганизмов видов L. casei и L. plantarum. Экспериментально установлено, что только этот консорциум удовлетворяет условие устойчивого синергизма между входящими в него видами микроорганизмов во время основного этапа ферментирования при условии углеводной корректировки сырья. Процесс углеводной корректировки целесообразно использовать при разработке технологии направленной ферментации овощного сырья. The health benefits of fermented functional products are expressed directly, through the interaction of living microorganisms that have entered the body together with food or biologically active additives (probiotic effect), or indirectly, as a result of consumption of microbial metabolites synthesized during fermentation (biogenic effect). A number of studies are devoted to the potential of the fermentation process to create cost-effective food production with new functional and consumer properties. The presence of a sufficient amount of nutrients (mainly sugars) in the substrate plays a crucial role in the development of lactic acid microorganisms during fermentation. In this regard, the dynamics of glucose and fructose concentrations were investigated as a result of directed carbohydrate adjustment of the substrate prepared from white cabbage of the Parus variety. It has been established that the consortium of lactic acid microorganisms of the species L. casei and L. plantarum is optimal from the point of view of the destruction of sugars. It has been experimentally established that only this consortium satisfies the condition of stable synergy between the species of microorganisms included in it during the main stage of fermentation, subject to carbohydrate adjustment of raw materials. It is advisable to use the process of carbohydrate correction in the development of technology for directed fermentation of vegetable raw materials.

The article provides brief information about cardiotonic, sedative, cytostatic, diuretic, and antibacterial effects of biologically active compounds of Adonis L. (Ranunculaceae) species. Chemical studies allowed to identify the cardiac glycosides, or cardenolides: or cardenolides: adontoxin, adonitol, adonitoxigenin, acetyldigitoxin and others. In scientific medicine, it is currently allowed to use Adonis vernalis L. Other types of Adonis have a similar chemical composition and are offered as substitutes for this official species, for example, Adonis apennina L. Many Adonis species have limited natural resources, and in some regions are rare, requiring conservation of their natural populations. The search for alternative sources of medicinal plant raw materials, based on this, is relevant. The experimental part of our research was carried out using the morphological and geographical method with the involvement of information on ecology and phenology. For the first time summarizes the diagnostic features of Adonis flora of Russian flora. Previously unknown structural features (shape and size of anthers) were identified that characterize the subgenera Adonanthe and Adonis. Taxonomic study of the genus Adonis of the Russian flora allowed us to determine its species composition, clarify its systematic affiliation, and nomenclature synonyms. 9 species were identified. Of these, 6 are perennials belonging to the subgenus Adonanthe, section Consiligo, which includes 2 subsections: Amurenses (2 species) and Vernales, which is differentiated into 2 rows: Apenninae (2 species) and Vernales (2 species). Subgenus Adonis is represented by 2 sections: Adonis (1 species) and Lophocarpa with sections Aestivales (1 species) and Dentatae (1 species). For all the considered species and varieties, the main distribution areas are given. A key has been compiled to determine the wild Adonis species distributed in Russia.

Any change of the raw material sources for glazes, economically, ecologically motivated, and also from the glaze quality point of view, is conditioned by the molecular formula rationalization and by the variation limits of the molecular formula, respectively. The proper glaze compositions are placed within their limit variation intervals with optimized processing and utilization properties. For this purpose, the rationalization criteria and procedures of molecular formulas are summarized in the present paper, as well as the results referring to their rationalization obtained in the authors� previous work. Thus, one starts from a base of raw materials that are selected, usable and also accessible for the design and producing of the glazes. On these bases the groundwork and the design equation for the glaze recipes are developed, exemplified for a single glaze. For an easy access to results, computer programs are used for an easy access to results.

In a series of analogues of the cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-8) the amino acid residues were gradually modified by substituting Gly by Pro in position 4, Trp by His in position 5, Met by Cle in position 6, or the Gly residue was inserted between Tyr and Met in positions 2 and 3 of the peptide chain, and in the case of the cholecystokinin heptapeptide (CCK-7) the Met residues were substituted by Nle or Aib. These peptides were investigated from the point of view of their biological potency in the peripheral and central region. From the results of the biological tests it follows that the modifications carried out in these analogues and in their Nα-Boc derivatives mean a suppression of the investigated biological activities by 2-3 orders of magnitude (at a maximum dose of the tested substance of 2 . 10-2 mg per animal).This means that a disturbance of the assumed biologically active conformation of CCK-8, connected with a considerable decrease of the biological potency of the molecule, takes place not only after introduction of the side chain into its centre (substitution of Gly4), but also after the modification of the side chains of the amino acids or by extension of the backbone in further positions around this central amino acid.
