As a result of the experiments on test objects made of wood, concrete and iron with protein protection, contaminated with microorganisms of the 1...4th groups of resistance to chemical disinfectants is studing the disinfecting activity of the new anolyte "Alox". It is established that the drug "Alox" has a high bactericidal and disinfecting activity. In laboratory experiments, test objects made of wood, concrete and iron, contaminated with E. coli, Pcs. 1257, were disinfected with directed aerosols of the drug "Alox" for 6 hours at a rate of 100 ml/m2. Disinfection of test objects with protein protection, contaminated with S. aureus, pcs. 209-P, was reached by anolyte in 6 hours with a drug consumption of 150 ml / m2, Mycobacterium B-5 – with a preparation consumption of 170 ml/m2 in 24 hours, and 200 ml/m2 in 6 hours. Inactivation of spores B. cereus, pcs. 96 on the test objects is achieved by directed aerosols of the drug "Alox" for 24 hours at a flow rate of 200 ml/m2.

Previously, it was found that anolyte Perox has a high bactericidal and disinfecting activity. Thus, the bactericidal activity of anolyte containing 500 mg/l of active chlorine with mineralization of 0.1-0.2 % and pH of 6.0 in relation to E. coli bacteria, pcs. 1257 – 0.0976%, and in relation to S. aureus, pcs. 209 – P – 0.1953%. Inactivation of E. coli bacteria on contaminated test objects made of wood, concrete, and iron was provided by directional aerosols of anolyte Perox in 6 hours at a flow rate of 100 ml/m2. Disinfection of test objects with protein protection contaminated with S. aureus pcs. 209-P, occurred in 6 hours at anolyte consumption of 150 ml/m2, and Mycobacterium B-5 – in 6 and 24 hours, with a drug consumption of 200 and 170 ml/ m2, respectively. Destruction spores of B. cereus pcs. 96 occurred with an exposure of 24 hours with drug consumption of 200 ml/m2. As a result of the conducted chamber experiments, we have determined effective modes of disinfection of test objects with protein protection, contaminated with microorganisms of the 1st – 4th groups of resistance.

The decimal elimination capacity (DEC) of slow sand filters (SSF) for viruses, bacteria and oocysts of Cryptosporidium has been assessed from full-scale data and pilot plant and laboratory experiments. DEC for viruses calculated from experimental data with MS2-bacteriophages in the pilot plant filters was 1.5-2 log10. E. coli and thermotolerant coliforms (Coli44) were removed at full-scale and in the pilot plant with 2-3 log10. At full-scale, Campylobacter bacteria removal was 1 log10 more than removal of Coli44, which indicated that Coli44 was a conservative surrogate for these pathogenic bacteria. Laboratory experiments with sand columns showed 2-3 and >5-6 log10 removal of spiked spores of sulphite-reducing clostridia (SSRC; C. perfringens) and oocysts of Cryptosporidium respectively. Consequently, SSRC was not a good surrogate to quantify oocyst removal by SSF. Removal of indigenous SSRC by full-scale filters was less efficient than observed in the laboratory columns, probably due to continuous loading of these filter beds with spores, accumulation and retarded transport. It remains to be investigated if this also applies to oocyst removal by SSF. The results additionally showed that the schmutzdecke and accumulation of (in)organic charged compounds in the sand increased the elimination of microorganisms. Removal of the schmutzdecke reduced DEC for bacteria by ±2 log10, but did not affect removal of phages. This clearly indicated that, besides biological activity, both straining and adsorption were important removal mechanisms in the filter bed for microorganisms larger than viruses.

The paper continues multi-year integrated studies of the numerous taxons of tropical Begonia genus, which allowed us to evaluate the adaptive capacity of the representatives of this genus relying on the revealed morphological, rhythmological and biochemical features. The investigation of antimicrobial activity of intact plants and different fractions of plant extracts allowed us to distinguish several promising representatives of this genus exhibiting activity against a broad range of test microorganisms. The involvement of these plants within phytomodules in child care centers caused a substantial decrease in total microbial contamination of the air. The paper contains results of the experimental investigation of seasonal antimicrobial activity of 13 species, 8 hybrids. The phytoncide activity was measured by exposing the streak cultures of microbial test species bacteria Staphylococcus epidermidis, Esсherichia coli and yeast-like fungi Candida albicans to the volatile emissions of plants. It has been established that 95% of begonias are distinguished by the pronounced activity against S. epidermidis bacteria, 48% against E. coli bacteria and 43% against fungi Candida albicans. The seasonal specificity of the antimicrobial action of begonias was detected: the growth of the colonies of S. epidermidis bacteria is inhibited to the highest extent during spring and summer, at the phase of intense growth, while the activity against E. coli is the highest during autumn and winter at the phase of moderate growth. The taxons with clearly pronounced, long-term and universal antimicrobial action to the studied test objects were revealed and recommended for practical planting in various types of indoor environments. The data obtained in the study may serve as the basis for further investigation of the chemical composition of volatile exometabolites by the example of the representatives of Gireoudia and Coelocentrum sections that have exhibited high antimicrobial activity against S. epidermidis and E. coli.

AbstractBacteria evolve by mutation accumulation in laboratory experiments, but the tempo and mode of evolution in natural environments are largely unknown. Here we show, by experimental evolution of E. coli in the mouse gut, that the ecology of the gut controls bacterial evolution. If a resident E. coli strain is present in the gut, an invading strain evolves by rapid horizontal gene transfer; this mode precedes and outweighs evolution by point mutations. An epidemic infection by two phages drives gene uptake and produces multiple co-existing lineages of phage-carrying (lysogenic) bacteria. A minimal dynamical model explains the temporal pattern of phage epidemics and their complex evolutionary outcome as generic effects of phage-mediated selection. We conclude that phages are an important eco-evolutionary driving force – they accelerate evolution and promote genetic diversity of bacteria.One Sentence SummaryBacteriophages drive rapid evolution in the gut.

The article describes the results of laboratory tests of the effectiveness of the disinfectant Monochloride (Iodine chloride) 2%. Laboratory studies were carried out on test objects and test surfaces contaminated with test cultures of microorganisms, which included museum cultures of E. coli (E. coli 1257), S. aureus 209-P, mycobacteria (pcs. B5), and spores (B. cereus pieces. 96). Disinfection of test objects was carried out by the method of irrigation at a consumption rate of 0,25...0,3 l/ m2 with disinfection of smooth surfaces and 0,5 l/m2, with disinfection of rough surfaces. The treatment was performed twice with an interval of 60 minutes. Our work established that the Monochloride (Iodine chloride) 2% has a high disinfectant activity against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, mycobacteria and spores. On the basis of the laboratory work, this tool can be recommended for production tests at veterinary surveillance facilities.
