The results of a study on rats toxicity of nanoparticles of metals bismuth, gadolinium and silver encapsulated in a natural biopolymer matrix arabinogalactan are presented. When intake of nanocomposite of silver revealed the readiness of the brain cell to apoptosis. The effect of bismuth and gadolinium nanocomposites did not cause an increase in the process of programmed cell death.

The emergence of microorganisms resistant strains is a natural biological response to the use of antimicrobial drugs that creates selective pressure, contributing to pathogens selection, survival and reproduction. The purpose of the investigation was to study the resistance development of staphylococci skin isolates to erythromycin and influence on it Alnus incana L. fruit extract subinhibitory concentrations. Development of resistance to erythromycin and influence on it Alnus incana L. fruit extract (extraction by 90% ethanol) subinhibitory concentrations were conducted with S epidermidis strains: sensitive and resistant to 14 and 15-membered macrolides. The study was carried out within 30 days by multiple consecutive passages of staphylococci test strains (concentration 1×107 CFU/ml) into test tubes containing broth and erythromycin ranging from 3 doubling dilutions above to doubling dilutions below the minimum inhibitory concentration. Statistical analysis of the results was carried out by one-and two-factor analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Microsoft Office Excel 2011. Rapid increase of resistance from 32 to 1024 μg/ml (F=34.2804; F> Fstand. max = 5.9874; p=0.0011) for S.epidermidis with a low level of resistance to 14 and 15-membered macrolides resistance to the erythromycine was observed. In the presence of Alnus incana L. fruit extract subinhibitory concentrations (¼ MIC), the initial MIC of erythromycin was decreased by 32 times to 1 μg/ml (F = 9.7497; F> Fstand. max = 5.9874; p = 0.0205). The sensitive strain after 30 passages did not develop resistance to erythromycin. Under the influence of erythromycin selective pressure, S.epidermidis strain with low initial level of MLS-resistance rapidly reaches a high-level resistance. Biologically active substances of the Alnus incana L. fruit extract significantly inhibit the resistance development in S. epidermidis to macrolides and eliminate it phenotypic features.

In this work, the biological activity of emmer (Triticum turgidum L. spp. dicoccum (Schrank ex Shubler) Thell.) wheatgrass extracts obtained from grains sprouted with distilled water, or salinity (50 mM) or selenium (45 mg L−1 of Na2SeO3), was tested through an experimental biological model based on the germination and cytosolic Ca2+ homeostasis of maize pollen grains. The effects of thapsigargin (TG) and of four phenolic acids (PAs: ferulic, coumaric, salicylic and 3-HO benzoic) on maize pollen were also tested as controls. Wheatgrass extracts influenced both pollen cytosolic Ca2+ and germination. The Ca2+ agonist activity of emmer wheatgrass was transient, different from that of TG, which caused a depletion of the stored Ca2+ and a permanent alteration of Ca2+ homeostasis. The results obtained with extracts compared to those obtained with pure PAs suggest that PAs in unconjugated forms, which are known to be well represent in emmer wheatgrass, contribute to the biological activity of extracts. The extent of the biological response of emmer wheatgrass extracts was influenced by emmer sprouting conditions (i.e., distilled water, or salinity or selenium). Maize pollen treated with Se-enriched wheatgrass extracts showed a less perturbed cytosolic Ca2+ and a higher germination rate.
