Lactate dehydrogenase activity, crystallogenic and initiator characteristics of biological substrates were evaluated by enzymological and crystalloscopic analysis of rat serum and urine. Changes in these characteristics of biological media in combined thermal injury were shown. This approach is effective for evaluation of the metabolic status in rats with experimental burn disease.

Staphylococci are related to opportunistic microorganisms and are part of normal human microflora. However, there are varieties that can cause pyoinflammatory diseases in organisms with weakened immune status. In the event of an inadequate therapeutic approach, they are preserved in the body, and the person becomes a bacterial carrier and a source of dissemination of pathogenic microorganisms. The formation of antibiotic resistance also plays a significant role in the emergence of bacterial carriage. The situation is especially serious in organized children's groups, where children are in close contact with one another. Thus, the study of the prevalence rate of antibiotic resistance among pathogenic strains of staphylococci in children's groups is topical and worthy of attention. The purpose of this work is to identify carriers of pathogenic and antibiotic resistant staphylococci isolated from the microflora of the oral cavity of preschool children considered healthy. The results of the research can prove useful in practical healthcare and, particularly, in pediatric practice.

We studied the influence of NO-containing gas phase on some parameters of energy metabolism in human erythrocytes. Whole blood samples were aerated with gas flows from the Plazon instrument (NO concentrations 800 and 80 ppm) and from the experimental generator (75 ppm). Activity of lactate dehydrogenase in direct and reverse reactions, lactate level, and a number of derived coefficients were estimated. Treatment of blood with 800 ppm NO inhibited erythrocyte energy metabolism, and its 10-fold dilution attenuated the effect. The use of ROS-free gas flow containing 75 ppm of NO promoted optimization of the process under investigation.

The existence of a supramolecular alcohol dehydrogenase-lactate dehydrogenase complex was demonstrated. Enzyme activities were evaluated in a preparation of mitochondrial membranes from mouse liver. The role of the enzyme complex (alcohol dehydrogenase-lactate dehydrogenase) in the regulation of pyruvate and acetaldehyde metabolism in the cell was studied.

It is impossible to imagine modern medical practice without antibiotic therapy.However, the rapid development of the pharmaceutical industry expands free access of the population to antibacterial drugs. At the same time, the illiteracy of people with respect to the principles of rational antibiotic therapy also increases. The problem of microbial resistance to antibacterial drugs remains relevant to this day. Special attention should be paid to rational antibiotic therapy applied to children.The purpose of this work was to study the resistance of hemolytic microorganisms, which are often the cause of upper respiratory infection in preschool children, to the main antibacterial drugs used in pediatric practice.The results of this scientific research can be advisory and useful to pediatricians and other specialists whose professional activities are related to children's health.
