Известно, что в детском возрасте происходят интенсивный рост и напряженные обменные процессы, что и определяет высокую потребность организма ребенка как в витаминах, так и в минеральных веществах. Несмотря на отсутствие дефицита свежих овощей и фруктов, у 80-90% населения Казакстана обнаруживается дефицит витамина С, у 40-60% - снижены уровни витаминов А, В, В, у 30-40% детей наблюдается дефицит железа и кальция, у 70-80% - дефицит йода. Многочисленные исследования, проводимые в различных регионах совместно с Институтом питания, показали, что за последние годы обеспеченность витаминами населения Казакстана существенно ухудшилась. Также отмечено, что у Казахстанских детей дефицит витаминов имеет характер полигиповитаминоза и является круглогодичным, т. е. без улучшения в летние месяцы. Нарушая обмен веществ, дефицит витаминов способствует снижению иммунитета, отрицательно сказывается на физическом и психическом развитии ребенка, повышает частоту и усугубляет тяжесть хронических заболеваний. It is known that in childhood there is intense growth and intense metabolic processes, which determines the high need of the child's body for both vitamins and minerals. Despite the absence of a shortage of fresh vegetables and fruits, 80-90% of the population of Kazakstan is found to be deficient in vitamin C, 40-60% - reduced levels of vitamins A, B1, B2, 30-40% of children are deficient in iron and calcium, 70-80% - iodine deficiency. Numerous studies conducted in various regions together with the Institute of Nutrition have shown that in recent years, the vitamin supply of the population of Kazakstan has significantly deteriorated. It is also noted that in Kazakstan children, vitamin deficiency has the character of polyhypovitaminosis and is year-round, i.e. without improvement in the summer months. By disrupting the metabolism, vitamin deficiency contributes to a decrease in immunity, negatively affects the physical and mental development of the child, increases the frequency and exacerbates the severity of chronic diseases [1-7].

The properties of a substance are determined by the structure of its component molecules. Ascorbic acid occurs abundantly in fresh fruit, especially blackcurrants, citrus fruit and strawberries, and in most fresh vegetables; good sources are broccoli and peppers. It is destroyed by heat and is not well stored in the body3. Ascorbic acid is a good reducing agent and facilitates many metabolic reaction and repair processes. In pharmaceutical preparations and fruit juices, ascorbic acid is readily separated from other compounds by TLC on silica gel and quantitated directly by absorption at 254nm. Serum and plasma may be deproteinized with twice the volume of methanol or ethanol.

Abstract Background: Vitamin C is easily soluble in water, and is the most labile vitamin because it is easily damaged by heat and storage. Vitamin C is contained in various fresh vegetables and fruits. One fruit that contains vitamin C is apple. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of storage time on apple vitamin C levels. 12 apples were grouped into 4 groups at 0, 2, 4, and 6 days at room temperature. Vitamin C levels of apples were analyzed using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer at a wavelength of 290 nm. The highest vitamin C level was found in the 0 day storage period, which was equal to 0.335% and the lowest vitamin C level was found at 6 days of storage, which was 0.118%. Vitamin C levels of apples decrease with increasing storage time. Method: The data obtained were analyzed by one-way ANOVA test. Result:The results showed that storage time had a significant effect (p <0.05) on decreasing levels of apple vitamin C. Conclusion: Based on the results of these studies it can be concluded that the level of vitamin C in apples decreases along with the length of storage at room temperature. Therefore it is recommended that people consume fresh apples and not store apples at room temperature to get enough vitamin C.

The world is now in the state of contingency and is facing one common enemy, COVID 19. Front developed countries to the developing and under developed countries, all are fighting against this common enemy which is a virus that is 0.125 microns ( 1 25 nm) with the size ranging from 0.06 to 0.14 microns. The world is now looking for a vaccine to prevent the infection, while the need of the hour is to boost the immunity of individuals against the disease through readily available nutrients. With the increase in incidence of the COVID-19 pandemic, scientists to common public have started to ponder the ways out of it, while boosting the immunity has become the only resolve as no vaccine has been invented until date. It is obvious that there is a correlation between nutrition and immune system; it is a common understanding that people who are well-nourished have a better immunity compared to poorly nourished people with a weak immunity. It is to be noted that people suffering from chronic diseases and elderly will have a weak immunity and are more prone to any disease let alone COVID-19. Though general immunity can be boosted through vitamin C, zinc and other micronutrients, vitamin D is required to boost overall immunity and also strengthen lungs. This review aims at laying emphasis on the need of vitamin D in strengthening immunity against the deadly common enemy COVlD- 19.

It has been almost universally adopted that dissolution of solids proceeds with development of uniform, continuous frontiers of reaction.However this point of view is doubtful / 1 /. E.g. we have proved the active role of the block (grain) boundaries in the main phases of cement, these boundaries being the areas of hydrate phases' nucleation / 2 /. It has brought to the supposition that the dissolution frontier of cement particles in water is discrete. It seems also probable that the dissolution proceeds through the channels, which serve both for the liquid phase movement and for the drainage of the incongruant solution products. These channels can be appeared along the block boundaries.In order to demonsrate it, we have offered the method of phase-contrast impregnation of the hardened cement paste with the solution of methyl metacrylahe and benzoyl peroxide. The viscosity of this solution is equal to that of water.

The purpose and tasks of the work are to analyze the contemporary Ukrainian mass culture in terms of its value and humanistic components, as well as the importance of cultural studies and Ukrainian studies in educational disciplines for the formation of a holistic worldview of modern youth.Analysis of research and publications. Scientists repeatedly turned to the problems of the role of spirituality in the formation of society and its culture. This problem is highlighted in the publications by O. Losev, V. Lytvyn, D. Likhachev, S. Avierintsev, M. Zakovych, I. Stepanenko and E. Kostyshyn.Experts see the main negative impact of mass culture on the quality approach, which determines mass culture through the market, because mass culture, from our point of view, is everything that is sold and used in mass demand.One of the most interesting studies on this issue was the work by the representatives of Frankfurt School M. Horkheimer and T. Adorno «Dialectics of Enlightenment» (1947), devoted to a detailed analysis of mass culture. Propaganda at all socio-cultural levels in the form is similar in both totalitarian and democratic countries. It is connected, according to the authors, with the direction of European enlightenment. The tendency to unify people is a manifestation of the influence of mass culture, from cinema to pop. Mass culture is a phenomenon whose existence is associated with commerce (accumulation in any form – this is the main feature of education), in general, the fact that it exists in this form is related to the direction of the history of civilization.Modern mass culture, with its externally attractive and easily assimilated ideas and symbols, appealing to the trends of modern fashion, becomes a standard of prestigious consumption, does not require intense reflection, allows you to relax, distract, not teach, but entertains, preaches hedonism as the main spiritual value. And as a consequence, there are socio-cultural risks: an active rejection of other people, which leads to the formation of indifference; cruelty as a character trait; increase of violent and mercenary crime; increase in the number of alcohol and drug addicts; anti-patriotism; indifference to the values of the family and as a result of social orphanhood and prostitution.Conclusions, perspectives of research. Thus, we can conclude that modern Ukrainian education is predominantly formed by the values of mass culture. Namely, according to the «Dialectic» by Horkheimer and Adorno, «semi-enlightenment becomes an objective spirit» of our modern society.It is concluded that only high-quality education can create the opposite of the onset of mass culture and the destruction of spirituality in our society. It is proved that only by realizing the importance of cultivating disciplines in the educational process and the spiritual upbringing of the nation, through educational reforms, humanitarian knowledge will gradually return to student audiences.Formation of youth occurs under the influence of social environment, culture, education and self-education. The optimal combination of these factors determines both the process of socialization itself and how successful it will be. In this context, one can see the leading role of education and upbringing. It turns out that the main task of modern education is to spread its influence on the development of spiritual culture of the individual, which eventually becomes a solid foundation for the formation of the individual. Such a subject requires both philosophical and humanitarian approaches in further integrated interdisciplinary research, since the availability of such research will provide the theoretical foundation for truly modern educational and personal development.

Gastric cancer is a multifactorial disease with complex interplay of environmental and genetic factors. Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infestation has been identified as the most important etiological agent in the pathogenesis of gastric cancer. Also, the role of dietary factors that is low consumption of fruits and vegetables have been found to be associated with gastric cancer. Among the dietary factors, antioxidants especially vitamin C has been found to confer the strongest protection against gastric cancer. Its anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic action has been suggested in vitro. Because of its antioxidant activity, it protects cells against oxidative DNA damage caused by toxic effects of reactive oxygen species. It also inhibits production of carcinogenic N-nitroso compound in the stomach. The person with H. pylori infection has low levels of vitamin C in their gastric juice and levels of vitamin C normalizes on eradication of H. pylori. Vitamin C levels are high in gastric mucosa and gastric juice, sometimes more than that of in plasma. But gastric pathological conditions cause lowered secretion of vitamin C into gastric juice. Effect of H. pylori on vitamin C in gastric juice is reversible and on eradication of H. pylori, it returns to normal level. Hence, eradication of H. pylori and chemoprevention with antioxidant supplementation will be an effective preventive strategy to reduce the incidence of gastric cancer and related mortality. Vitamin C and gastric cancer is an area of potential interest for researchers as a preventive measure. Keywords: Vitamin C, H. pylori, gastric cancer.

The article looks at book production and circulation from the point of view of translators, who, as purchasers and readers of foreign-language books, are an important mediating force in the selection of literature for translation. Taking the German publisher Tauchnitz's series ‘Collection of British Authors’ and its circulation in Finland in the nineteenth and early twentieth century as a case in point, the article argues that the increased availability of English-language books facilitated the acquiring and honing of translators' language skills and gradually diminished the need for indirect translating. Book history and translation studies meet here in an examination of the role of the Collection in Finnish translators' work.

Physical Capital Accumulation

This paper discusses the relation between the quality and quantity indicators of physical capital and modernisation. While international academic literature emphasises the role of intangible factors enabling technology generation and absorption rather than that of physical capital accumulation, this paper argues that the quantity and quality of physical capital are important modernisation factors, particularly in the case of small, undercapitalised countries that recently integrated into the world economy. The paper shows that in Hungary, as opposed to developed countries, the technological upgrading of capital assets was not necessarily accompanied by the upgrading of human capital i.e. the thesis of capital skill complementarity did not apply to the first decade of transformation and capital accumulation in Hungary. Finally, the paper shows that there are large differences between the average technological levels of individual industries. The dualism of the Hungarian economy, which is also manifest in terms of differences in the size of individual industries' technological gaps, is a disadvantage from the point of view of competitiveness. The increasing differences in the size of the technological gaps can be explained not only with industry-specific factors, but also with the weakness of technology and regional development policies, as well as with institutional deficiencies.
