In recent years, there has been a significant interest in beverages with increased biological value, such as beer with blueberries. In this study, blueberries were added at the beginning of maturation of lager beer with an initial extract of 12, 14 and 16ºP. The effect of blueberries addition on yeast metabolism was investigated as concentration of ethanol, higher alcohols, esters, aldehydes, and vicinal diketones in the final beer were measured and compared to control samples without blueberries. The results showed that blueberries affected positively ethanol formation only when wort with initial extract of 12°P was used and had no significant effect when wort with higher extract was used. In regard to secondary metabolites, blueberries addition led to a decrease in higher alcohols concentration and an increase in esters amounts. All the carbonyl compounds (aldehydes and vicinal diketones) were higher in beer with blueberries.

Three different kinetic models – Monod’s model, Monod’s model with substrate inhibition, and Monod's model with substrate and product inhibition were developed for studying of beer fermentation with free and immobilized cells at different main fermentation and maturation temperatures. The most accurate model was Monod's model with substrate and product inhibition. It showed that maturation temperature had no effect on primary metabolism but it affected significantly the secondary metabolites production. In regard to carbonyl compounds and esters, the increase in maturation temperature led to different trends for free and immobilized cells. Regarding the higher alcohols, the increase in maturation temperature resulted in increase in their yield coefficients for both immobilized and free cells. A sensory evaluation of beers produced with free and immobilized cells were also carried out and the results showed similar results for two beer types.

Cheap licit and artisanal illicit spirit drinks have been associated with numerous outbreaks of alcohol poisoning especially with methanol. This study aimed to evaluate the quality of cheap spirit drinks in Kibera slums in Nairobi County, Kenya. The samples consisted of cheap licit spirits (n=11) and the artisanal spirit drink, ‘chang’aa’, (n=28). The parameters of alcoholic strength and volatile composition were used as indicators of quality and were determined using GC-FID and GC-MS respectively. The pH of chang’aa was 3.3-4.2 and 4.4-8.8 for licit spirit drinks while ranges for alcoholic strength were 42.8-85.8 % vol. and 28.3-56.7% vol. for chang’aa and licit spirit drinks respectively. The majority of volatiles were found in artisanal spirits and they included higher alcohols, ethyl esters and carbonyl compounds. The alcoholic strength of all the artisanal spirits (100%) and 91% of the licit spirits was above the 40% vol. of standard spirits such as vodka. The high ethanol content of the alcohol products was the only element of public health significance in this study.

The research is dedicated to the development of recipes of cooked sausages and their diversification through including in the recipes poultry meat, and by-products of processing meat and milk. The meat products most affordable and popular with the Ukrainian people are selected for the study: cooked sausages and poultry meat wieners. The main components of the recipes are: red poultry meat, mechanically deboned poultry meat, medium-fat pork. In the recipes of the products developed, 10 % of the basic raw material was replaced with a hydrated protein-carbohydrate-mineral supplement. According to its physico-chemical characteristics, the protein-carbohydrate-mineral supplement in the technology of cooked sausage products allows us to get ready-made products with excellent quality parameters. It has been established that adding protein-carbohydrate-mineral supplement to the formulation significantly effects on the physico-chemical, functional, and technological parameters and biological value of meat products. The experimental data obtained show that the moisture content of the fresh stuffing for the sausages Kuryacha and the wieners Videnski is by 0.9 and 1.7%, respectively, higher than that in the control samples. The water-binding power in the fresh stuffing of the control samples is by 5% lower than in the test samples. In the finished product, the moisture-holding capacity is higher in the test samples (by 5.9% in the sausages Kuryacha, by 3.8% in the wieners Videnski). The study has shown that the amino acid score difference coefficient (AASDC) in the control sample of cooked sausage was by 11.2% higher than in the sample of the cooked sausage Kuryacha. In the control sausages, it was 13.0% higher than in the Videnski wieners. The developed cooked sausage products with the protein-carbohydrate-mineral supplement can be introduced into production as functional products with improved biological value.

The results of the clinical use of thrombolytic and antithrombotic preparations developed on the basis of protein conjugates obtained within the framework of the conception of drug targeting delivery in the organism are considered. A decrease has been noted in the number of biomedical projects focused on these derivatives as a result of various factors: the significant depletion of financial and organizational funds, the saturation of the pharmaceutical market with preparations of this kind, and the appearance of original means for interventional procedures. Factors that actively facilitate the conspicuous potentiation of the efficacy of bioconjugates were revealed: the biomedical testing of protein domains and their selected combinations, the optimization of molecular sizes for the bioconjugates obtained, the density of target localization, the application of cell adhesion molecules as targets, and the application of connected enzyme activities. Enzyme antioxidants and the opportunity for further elaboration of the drug delivery conception via the elucidation and formation of therapeutic targets for effective drug reactions by means of pharmacological pre- and postconditioning of myocardium arouse significant interest.

The data on feeding dairy cows of an energy protein concentrate (EPC) are presented. EPC consists of grain of narrow-leaved lupine, flax, triticale, subjected to heat treatment on a press extruder. The effect of EPC on the change in milk production of cows was determined. The inclusion of extruded concentrate based on lupine grains in the diets of cows made it possible to obtain an increase in milk. Concentrate based on lupine, flax, triticale is equal in biological value to full-fat soy, and at a much lower cost.

Aim. To determine the response of the populations of Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae and Leptospira interrogans pathogenic microorganisms to the impact of broadleaf cattail (Thypha latifolia) root diffusates. Methods. Aqueous solutions of T. latifolia root diffusates were sterilized by vacuum fi ltration through the fi lters with 0.2-micron pore diameter. The experimental samples contained cattail secretions, sterile water, and cultures of E. rhusiopathiae or L. interrogans. The same amount of sterile water, as in the experimental samples, was used for the purpose of control, and the same quantity of microbial cultures was added in it. After exposure, the density of cells in the experimental and control samples was determined. Results. Root diffusates of T. latifolia caused an increase in cell density in the populations of E. rhusiopathiae throughout the whole range of the studied dilutions (1:10–1:10000). In the populations of the 6 studied serological variants of L. interrogans spirochetes (pomona, grippotyphosa, copenhageni, kabura, tarassovi, canicola), the action of broadleaf cattail root diffusates caused the decrease in cell density. A stimulatory effect was marked in the experimental samples of the pollonica serological variant of leptospira. Conclusions. The populations of E. rhusiopathiae and L. interrogans pathogenic microorganisms respond to the allelopathic effect of Thypha latifolia by changing the cell density. The obtained results provide the background to assume that broadleaf cattail thickets create favorable conditions for the existence of E. rhusiopathiae pathogen bacteria. The reduced cell density of L. interrogans in the experimental samples compared to the control samples observed under the infl uence of T. latifolia root diffusates suggests that reservoirs with broadleaf cattail thickets are marked by the unfavorable conditions for the existence of pathogenic leptospira (except L. pollonica).
