При проведении работ по заточке твердосплавных инструментов абразивными кругами на универсальных заточных станках образуется значительное количество пылевых частиц. Часть пылевых частиц, в зависимости от размеров, находится во взвешенном состоянии. Длительное воздействие пылевых аэрозолей на организм рабочих может привезти к развитию большого количества профессиональных заболеваний дыхательных путей. Установлено, что на характер движения пылевых частиц в рабочей зоне и скорость их осаждения влияет такой параметр, как форма пылевой частицы. Материал для исследования и расчета был собран на предприятии ООО «Русский инструмент», которое расположено в пгт. Северный, Белгородского района. Отбор проб производился в разных зонах заточного участка. На основе имеющихся проб пылевых частиц, на базе лаборатории БГТУ им. В. Г. Шухова, были получены результаты электронной микроскопии. Целью данной работы является определение коэффициента формы пылевых частиц, с использованием существующих методик определения данного коэффициента. Полученные результаты позволяют дополнить исходные данные для разработки математической модели процессов течения пылевых частиц вблизи местного отсоса и последующего компьютерного моделирования течений пылевых аэрозолей в кожухе-пылеуловителе. When working on sharpening carbide tools with abrasive wheels on universal grinding machines, a significant amount of dust particles is formed. A certain part of the dust particles, depending on the size, is suspended. Prolonged exposure to dust aerosols on the body of machine turners can lead to the development of a large number of occupational diseases of the respiratory tract. It is established that in the working area, the nature of the movement of dust particles, as well as the rate of their deposition, is affected by such a parameter as the shape of the dust particle. The material for the study, calculation and subsequent computer simulation of the dust aerosol flows in the dust collector casing was collected at the OOO Russian Tool, which is located in the village Severny, Belgorod district. The samples were taken in different zones of the grinding area. Based on the available samples of dust particles, the results of electron microscopy were obtained at the laboratory of BSTU named after V. G. Shukhov. The purpose of this work is to describe the results obtained and determine the shape coefficient of dust particles, using existing methods for determining this coefficient. The material of the work allows us to supplement the initial data for the development of a mathematical model of the processes of the flow of dust particles near the local suction.

Introduction: Industrial vibration has a complex effect on the body, increasing the risk of diseases from the circulatory and respiratory systems, disorders of the liver and endocrine system, which are not recognized by medical boards as occupational. The objective of our study was to analyze the prevalence of non-occupational diseases in workers suffering from occupational vibration disease and employed in industries and institutions served by health facilities of the Russian Federal Medical-Biological Agency (FMBA). Materials and methods: As a reliable source of information, we used the Industry Register of Persons with Occupational Diseases containing data on 95 cases of occupational vibration disease aged 65.1 ± 1.5 (90 men aged 64.8 ± 1.5 years and 5 women aged 70.6 ± 2.6 years). The prevalence rates are given per 1,000 cases of occupational vibration disease with an error of the intensive indicator and the proportion of the pathology in the structure of non-occupational diseases. Results: The prevalence of non-occupational diseases in men was 755.6 ± 91.6. Of these, musculoskeletal disorders (288.9±47.8; 39.4 %) ranked first, followed by diseases of the cardiovascular (177.8 ± 40.3; 24.2 %), respiratory (111.1 ± 33.1; 15.2 %), and digestive (66.7 ± 26.3; 9.1 %) systems. Discussion: We established that diseases of the musculoskeletal system and other disorders potentially related to occupational vibration dominated in the structure of non-occupational diseases in the study cohort. Conclusion: Cases of occupational vibration disease often suffer from musculoskeletal disorders, diseases of the circulatory, respiratory and digestive systems, accounting for 87.9 % of all non-occupational illnesses in this research. We recommend a more precise determination of occupational or non-occupational genesis of musculoskeletal disorders in people exposed to vibration at work in occupational health centers.

The abrasive processing of metal products is accompanied by harmful dust emissions into the work area. Exceeding the MPC of dust particles in the work area has a negative impact on the health of working personnel-it leads to occupational diseases of dust etiology. To localize harmful dust emissions when working on grinding machines, there are various dust collectors and their modifications, which allow to deal with harmful dust emissions with different efficiency. The design of the dust collector shrouds may involve connecting to an aspiration system that creates a low-pressure zone in the housing of the shroud, and thereby helps to remove harmful particles released during work. To correctly calculate the costs of air removed by local suction systems, it is necessary to analyze the dust situation and determine the properties of dust aerosols at a specific enterprise. In this work, the analysis of samples of dust particles selected at the grinding site of the plant for the manufacture of metal-cutting and metal tools, as well as technological equipment of LLC Production Company "Russian tool". Obtaining correct and up-to-date data on the size and chemical analysis of dust particles is necessary for the development of an energy-efficient aspiration system, as well as a mathematical model of the movement of dust particles.

Spectral pyrometry was used to determine the surface temperature distribution of Si, Nb, Cu, and graphite samples when they were locally heated by continuous radiation of an Nd:YAG laser (λ = 1.064 μm). With prolonged exposure to radiation, a stationary temperature field was established in the samples. The thermal spectra were recorded with a small spectrometer in the visible range in the temperature range above 850 K. The optical fiber used to transmit the radiation spectrum to the spectrometer had an additional diaphragm with a diameter of 1 mm located at a certain distance from the fiber end, which ensured the locality of the recorded spectra. The optical fiber moved continuously along the sample, and the spectrometer recorded up to 100 spectra with a frequency of 5-10 Hz. The temperature profile of the samples was calculated based on the results of processing the spectra using the Spectral Pyrometry program.

Red colored lipstick is the most widely used cosmetic product. Although lipstick gives a lot of social, psychological and therapeutic benefits, it may harm the consumers. Because some lipsticks contain a considerable amount of heavy metal especially lead. Lead is being used in lipstick mainly for the pigments required to obtain needed colors. Lead accumulates in the body over time and lead-containing lipstick applied several times a day, every day, combined with lead in water and other sources, could add up to significant exposure levels. Therefore, this study was aimed to determine lead content in red colored lipsticks from market. This study was laboratorybased, analytical study by using 25 lipstick samples. Red colored lipsticks were bought from Mandalay Market by random sampling procedure and they were completely coded to avoid the bias. Then, lead content in coded samples was determined by Flame AAS according to International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guideline. Lead contents of 88% of the lipsticks samples were more than specified limit (20 ppm) of Food and Drug Administration, United States. All of them, lead content was highest in counterfeit lipsticks group. Among the tested lipstick samples, lipstick with lowest lead content was LE-RL 01 (15.74 ppm) and the lipstick with highest lead content was CF-RL 01(60.09 ppm). In conclusion, lead contents of red colored lipsticks (22 out of 25) from market samples were higher than allowable limit (20 ppm).

The aim of this work was the development and validation of a fast analytical method to determine the residual solvents content in radiopharmaceuticals such as: 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG), 18F-Fluoroestradiol (18F-FES), 18F-Fluorothymidine (18F-FLT),18F-Fluoromisonidazole (18F-FMISO). Radiopharmaceuticals are radioactive preparations for medical purposes used in nuclear medicine as tracers in diagnostic imaging and treatment of certain diseases. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a medical imaging technique that consists in introducing into the body of a small amount of a biologically active chemical compound labelled with a short lived positron-emitting radioisotope (18F, 11C, 68Ga). Residual solvents are critical impurities in radiopharmaceuticals that can affect labelling, stability and physicochemical properties of drugs. Therefore, the determination of these solvents is essential for quality control of radiopharmaceuticals. Validation of the control method for residual solvents by gas chromatography is referred by the European Pharmacopoeia using a special injection technique (head space). The parameters of the method, which comply with International Conference on Harmonization guidelines, are: accuracy, precision, linearity, limit of detection, limit of quantification and robustness. The proposed method (direct gas chromatography injection) proved to be linear, precise, accurate and robust. Good linearity was achieved for all the solvents and correlation coefficients (R2) for each residual solvent were found more than 0.99.

AbstractThis paper deals with the mathematical modeling of atherosclerosis based on a novel hypothesis proposed by a surgeon, Prof. Dr. Axel Haverich (Circulation 135(3):205–207, 2017). Atherosclerosis is referred as the thickening of the artery walls. Currently, there are two schools of thoughts for explaining the root of such phenomenon: thickening due to substance deposition and thickening as a result of inflammatory overgrowth. The hypothesis favored here is the second paradigm stating that the atherosclerosis is nothing else than the inflammatory response of of the wall tissues as a result of disruption in wall nourishment. It is known that a network of capillaries called vasa vasorum (VV) accounts for the nourishment of the wall in addition to the natural diffusion of nutrient from the blood passing through the lumen. Disruption of nutrient flow to the wall tissues may take place due to the occlusion of vasa vasorums with viruses, bacteria and very fine dust particles such as air pollutants referred to as PM 2.5. They can enter the body through the respiratory system at the first place and then reach the circulatory system. Hence in the new hypothesis, the root of atherosclerotic vessel is perceived as the malfunction of microvessels that nourish the vessel. A large number of clinical observation support this hypothesis. Recently and highly related to this work, and after the COVID-19 pandemic, one of the most prevalent disease in the lungs are attributed to the atherosclerotic pulmonary arteries, see Boyle and Haverich (Eur J Cardio Thorac Surg 58(6):1109–1110, 2020). In this work, a general framework is developed based on a multiphysics mathematical model to capture the wall deformation, nutrient availability and the inflammatory response. For the mechanical response an anisotropic constitutive relation is invoked in order to account for the presence of collagen fibers in the artery wall. A diffusion–reaction equation governs the transport of the nutrient within the wall. The inflammation (overgrowth) is described using a phase-field type equation with a double well potential which captures a sharp interface between two regions of the tissues, namely the healthy and the overgrowing part. The kinematics of the growth is treated by classical multiplicative decomposition of the gradient deformation. The inflammation is represented by means of a phase-field variable. A novel driving mechanism for the phase field is proposed for modeling the progression of the pathology. The model is 3D and fully based on the continuum description of the problem. The numerical implementation is carried out using FEM. Predictions of the model are compared with the clinical observations. The versatility and applicability of the model and the numerical tool allow.
