Debarking, pitch removal and retting: Role of microbes and their enzymes
Authors: Kumar Amit , Yadav Mukesh , Tiruneh Workinesh
Published: May 2020

Microbial enzymes are green and clean alternatives for several processes in the pulp and paper industry. Enzyme treatment decreases the energy requirement and minimizes the wood losses during drum debarking. Lipophilic wood extractives are known as pitch. Pitch deposition adversely affects the pulp quality and increases equipment maintenance and operating costs during paper manufacturing. Several chemical additives have been used to remove pitch deposits. Natural seasoning of wood is used to minimize pitch content in wood, but it has some disadvantages including yield losses and decreased brightness. Controlled seasoning with white-rot fungi or albino strains of sapstain fungi is an effective tool for degradation and removal of wood extractives. Enzymes including lipase, laccase, sterol esterase, and lipooxygenase have also been used to minimize pitch-related problems. Enzymatic retting has been proved an eco-friendly and economical solution for chemical degumming and traditional retting.

Diabetic neuropathy and restless legs syndrome: can a known chronic condition slow down our diagnostic way of thinking? A case report and a short literature overview
Authors: Anyfantakis Dimitrios , Katsanikaki Fani , Symvoulakis Emmanouil K
Published: May 2020

Restless legs syndrome is a common lifelong neurological disorder with a negative impact on the patients’ sleep and quality of life. Despite its common occurrence in the general population, the condition usually remains undiagnosed. Patients with diabetes run at a higher risk to suffer from restless legs syndrome. Diabetic neuropathy, in particular, shares similar clinical characteristics with restless legs syndrome and reduces significantly the patients’ quality of life.

Our aim was to report on an interesting case of restless legs syndrome in a patient with diabetes seeking medical advice for a ten-year long insomnia. Sleep deprivation was falsely attributed to diabetic neuropathy. A literature overview of the up-to-date knowledge was performed in order to summarize available information and provide primary care physicians with a comprehensive way of clinical thinking to differentiate peripheral neuropathy and restless legs syndrome manifestations.
Silver Recovery from X-ray Film Waste by Leaching and Precipitation Method Using Sodium Hydroxide and Sodium Sulfide
Authors: Fatimah Soja Siti , Siswaningsih Wiwi , Kusrijadi Ali , Shalahuddin Fikri Aziz
Published: May 2020

Silver recovery research from x-ray film waste by leaching and precipitation method using NaOH and Na2S aims to determine the optimum conditions in silver recovery. The parameters optimated in this study were the concentration of the precipitants, leaching temperature and the effect of the type of precipitants on the precipitated time. The results showed that the NaOH and Na2S precipitants were able to recover silver optimally at a concentration of 1.5 M. The optimum leaching temperature of the film with the Na2S precipitant to recover silver was at 25oC, whereas in the NaOH precipitant the film leaching temperature only affected the time of precipitation. Therefore, the formation of precipitate using Na2S is more efficient than NaOH, but the acquisition of silver is better to use NaOH than Na2S.
The future of work in the Visegrad Group of countries
Authors: Keese Mark
Published: May 2020

A number of megatrends are hitting the world of work at the same time. These include the digital revolution, globalisation and rapid population ageing, which are all having a profound impact on the types of jobs that are being created and how and where they are performed. This paper examines the challenges confronting the Visegrad Group of countries and the broad policy responses that will be required. It looks at the risk of job automation, how the structure of employment is changing by skill level and the rise of the gig economy. These changes will require a combination of policy responses in the areas of employment regulation, measures to facilitate labour mobility and lifelong learning, social protection and social dialogue. In many cases, this will not require a complete paradigm shift in policies but an adaptation and strengthening of existing polices.
Territories of Priority Social and Economic Development as an Institute of Strategic Development f Single-Industry Towns (Based on the Republic of Tatarstan)
Authors: Abdulganiev Farid
Published: May 2020

Currently, it is not the export of energy resources or raw materials, but investments, modernization of production and the use of territorial development tools that arise in a number of factors of economic development and become key conditions for the development of the country. This mechanism allows to solve the problems of singleindustry towns, one of the problems of which is a narrow specialization and the mono-industrial type of city-forming enterprises. The author substantiates that the task of overcoming the narrow specialization of single-industry entities lies in economic diversification, including through the active use of the territorial development tools, such as federal economic zones, territories of priority social and economic development, industrial and investment sites. To encourage economy the only alternative is state investments and implementation of projects of territorial development. Only through changing (diversifying) the economic structure, it is possible to solve large scale tasks in the economic development of the country. It is important to solve such problems by creating an effective system of strategic management of social and economic development, the basic method of which is strategic planning. Institutional mechanisms will ensure the rational distribution of productive forces through the creation of special economic zones and territories of priority social and economic development. The article shows that in recent years, new institutes of the territorial development have been created at the federal and regional levels. The basic and well-proven instrument of strategic development is territories of priority social and economic development (TOSED). As a positive example, the author presents the analysis of the effectiveness of five single-industry towns that have received the status of TOSED (Naberezhnye Chelny, Nizhnekamsk, Zelenodolsk, Chistopol, Mendeleevsk) in the Republic of Tatarstan. Consequently it allows to draw the conclusion regarding the effectiveness of this tool from the standpoint of analyzing the dynamics of number of residents’ growth, number of workers, volume of capital investments made by residents.
Strategic Consultant and Client: Interaction Models
Authors: Zhikharevich Boris , Maracha Viacheslav
Published: May 2020

The paper analyzes theoretical models of relations between executive authorities of federal subjects of the Russian Federation, municipalities (client) and organizations providing services for creating social and economic development strategies (strategic consultant). The authors study the evolution of these relations and the market of territorial strategic consulting from the moment of the emergence of territorial strategic planning in Russia to the present. The researchers identify factors causing serious changes in the models of relations “consultant – client” after the adoption of the Federal Law “On Strategic Planning in the Russian Federation” and tightening of public procurement standards. Theoretical constructions are supported by the statements of the heads of several leading Russian consulting teams. The authors have made a simplified classification of consultants, which includes “innovator”, “pragmatist”, “operator of changes”, and a classification of clients, which includes “progressor”, “formalist”, “populist”. The paper identifies essential characteristics of emerging substantive relationships: positioning of the advisor (“innovator” or “outsourcer”), depth of involvement of the parties into the strategizing process, level of client’s boss participation, form and regularity of communications, compatibility of worldviews. The authors identify two basic models. The preferred one is “partnership under the leadership of an consultant” and the ineffective one is “domination of a client with a low interest”. At the same time, the key characteristic is positioning of the consultant, which is connected with the market segmentation of the territorial strategic consulting. The researchers identify the problem of “tiredness” from standard strategic planning and propose options to modify this process. The authors systematize the problems that complicate the formation of an effective model of relations “consultant – client” associated with the selection and hiring of a consulting system according to the rules of public procurement and give recommendations for the improvement of the strategic planning process which are addressed to clients and consultant and are based on approaching to the model of their relations, which has been seen as the most productive.

Predicting Strategic Behavior from Free Text
Authors: Ben-Porat Omer , Hirsch Sharon , Kuchi Lital , Elad Guy , Reichart Roi , Tennenholtz Moshe
Published: May 2020

The connection between messaging and action is fundamental both to web applications, such as web search and sentiment analysis, and to economics. However, while prominent online applications exploit messaging in natural (human) language in order to predict non-strategic action selection, the economics literature focuses on the connection between structured stylized messaging to strategic decisions in games and multi-agent encounters. This paper aims to connect these two strands of research, which we consider highly timely and important due to the vast online textual communication on the web. Particularly, we introduce the following question: Can free text expressed in natural language serve for the prediction of action selection in an economic context, modeled as a game

In order to initiate the research on this question, we introduce the study of an individual’s action prediction in a one-shot game based on free text he/she provides, while being unaware of the game to be played. We approach the problem by attributing commonsensical personality attributes via crowd-sourcing to free texts written by individuals, and employing transductive learning to predict actions taken by these individuals in one-shot games based on these attributes. Our approach allows us to train a single classifier that can make predictions with respect to actions taken in multiple games. In experiments with three well-studied games, our algorithm compares favorably with strong alternative approaches. In ablation analysis, we demonstrate the importance of our modeling choices—the representation of the text with the commonsensical personality attributes and our classifier—to the predictive power of our model.

Land, Law and Literature: Dad and Dave and Australian National Identity
Authors: Rochford Francine
Published: May 2020

On Our Selection is a series of stories by Steele Rudd, the pen name of Arthur Hoey Davis. The stories portray elements of small ‘selector’ farming in federation-era Australia and represent a significant body of literature originating in or ‘about’ the ‘bush’, the ‘outback’, the ‘never-never’ – unspecific appellations attached to regions of non-urban Australia. The stories detail the Rudd family’s experiences after taking up a ‘selection’ in the Australian bush – the arduous processes of early clearing through to their relative prosperity. ‘Dad Rudd’ has been described as ‘Australia’s Everyman’, and his pugnacious attitude of opposition to the ‘squattocracy’ and the cities resonated with audiences. The sketches, periodicals, radio plays, theatre productions and, eventually, films that continued the Rudd legacy made these stories a significant voice in the creation of Australian national identity – or at least the ‘bush’ identity. However, an attempt to update the representation to the 1970s in a television series was unsuccessful. This article considers the interaction between the legislative creation of ‘selection’ of land and the depictions of life on a selection in the creation of the Australian national identity. It then considers the media and social changes that contextualise the failure of the television series.

Authors: Flávia Pereira de França Paiva  , Adriana Paula da Costa e Silva Santiago
Published: May 2020

A estimativa da idade possui valor indiscutível no processo de identificação humana. O ângulo mandibular tem sido apontado como um meio de estimá-la. Isto posto, o presente estudo objetivou verificar a relevância das modificações ocorridas no referido ângulo, correlacionando-as com a idade cronológica do indivíduo. Para tanto, foram utilizadas 1020 radiografias cefalométricas digitais de perfil (515 do gênero feminino e 505 do gênero masculino) de indivíduos com idades de 8 a 45 anos, obtidas por meio de Raios-X convencional. Os ângulos foram medidos através do software Radiocef Studio 2® a partir do traçado de Jarabak. Os dados foram divididos em seis grupos etários: grupo I: 08 a 10 anos, grupo II: 11 a 15 anos, grupo III: 16 a 20 anos, grupo IV: 21 a 25 anos, grupo V: 26 a 35 anos e grupo VI: 36 a 45 anos. Na análise dos dados utilizaram-se técnicas de estatística descritiva através de distribuições absolutas, percentuais e das medidas estatísticas médias e desvio padrão inferencial através dos testes F (ANOVA), t-Student com variâncias iguais e intervalo de confiança para a média de uma população. Para a margem de erro fixada (5,0%) não se comprova diferenças significativas entre as idades de nenhuma das faixas etárias. As médias por faixa etária e gênero oscilaram de 125,93 a 129,91 e foram bastante aproximadas entre os gêneros sem diferenças significativas (p > 0,05). Conclui-se que o ângulo mandibular não sofre modificações relevantes na faixa etária de 8 a 45 anos e nem em relação ao gênero.

This research is motivated by the phenomenon of inter-building space which is understood as an open area and can be accessed by people who are usually located between buildings. This study is a case study on public spaces in kampung Kasepuhan Ciptarasa and Ciptagelar, Sukabumi-West Java. The space between buildings in this study is interesting because in it public activities and rituals on a community scale can be held which are quite limited. The community itself becomes the agent responsible for care. The purpose and significance of public space research lie in the disclosure of open space phenomena that are local and participatory. The research method used is phenomenology-hermeneutics to find out the meaning of interpretation of the text of a phenomenon of public space that occurs. The results showed that the use of public space for the residents of kampung Kasepuhan Ciptarasa and Ciptagelar due to ritual activities, especially Seren Taun. Beyond that, the function of public space is not visible.

THE CORRELATION BETWEEN THE OPEN SPACE EXISTENCE AND BUILDING HEIGHT ON JAKARTA’S ROADS
Authors: Linggasani Made Anggita Wahyudi
Published: May 2020

Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, is indirectly experiencing rapid development in building construction. As a result, day by day Jakarta is becoming crowded by buildings and eventually forced to negate the existence of open space in one site. This condition is also experienced in Jalan Jaksa (a tourism area) and Jalan Wahid Hasyim (at the end of Jalan Jaksa). Both of these roads seem lacking in considering the existence of local development regulations that should pay attention to the rules of the building border line (GSB) and the road border line (GSJ). To find out the truth, the research will be conducted through the method of observing the city face on both roads. The analytical method used is correspondence analysis using variable height of buildings and the existence of open space in each building. Based on the results of the analysis, it was found that there are still many buildings that not applying the rules of the building border line (GSB) and the road border line (GSJ). Especially for one-story buildings that tend not to have a yard (open space area) on the front as a form of implementing the GSB / GSJ rules. Meanwhile, multi-storey buildings (2-storey, 3-storey, etc.) here in general have a yard in the front. The existence of the yard is actually important to be provided as an open space, because it can accommodate human activities and needs, such as a parking area or an assembly point when a disaster occurs.

Authors: Solehuddin M.
Published: May 2020

Issues of intolerance in Indonesia, even involving children, have become the concerns of all related agencies, particularly those in children’s education. Although character building has been mainstreamed in the national education system, little is known how preschool teachers contribute to the nurturance of tolerant young children as future global citizens. This study explores priority sustainable character values and their building strategies in counselling practices of pre-school teachers in West Java Province of Indonesia. Analysis of questionnaire, classroom observation and interview results by criteria of Global Citizenship Education (UNESCO, 2017) and character education in the 21st century of Bialik, Bogan, Fadel and Horvathova (2015) show that counselling topics of the participating teachers have included sustainable values of global partnership, independence, nationalism, integrity, and religiosity exercised through individual and team works. By involving social agencies such as parents, principals, and religious leaders, teachers involved their students in various characterbuilding activities. The study also recommends more detail indicators and activities for teachers to improve their students’ sense of tolerance as future global citizens.

SPIRITUALITY AS THE BASIS OF MODERN UKRAINIAN IDENTITY
Authors: Tytar Elena
Published: May 2020

The transformation of spiritual and educational practices in contemporary culture is analyzed. Spirituality is considered as the basis of modern Ukrainian identity. It is proved that Ukrainian post-colonial discourse is not possible without the interaction of the modern and postmodern identity type. This is a critique of the modern and postmodern way of seeing the problem. Cultural and social consequences of the first stage of the information society, the first stage of globalization are: internal fragmentation of the workforce of information producers and the rest; social exclusion of many individuals and entire segments of society. A new stage in the development of identities should consolidate society. It turns out that the dialogic nature of communication forms identity as knowledge of the nature of its own Self, ready to respond to the challenges of the Other, thus not only my identity is formed, but my place in the world, my spirituality, the limits of my values. The modern type of identity is associated with a nation-state, which tries to maximize its influence, the modern type of identity produces a colonial world, where there is a clear division into metropolis and colony, a special type of colonies are internal colonies. In the case of Ukraine, we can see the complex combination of external and internal colonialism, and the particular danger of internal colonialism lies in the fact that it remains unclear to the end who conqueror, but who is subdued. The postmodern identity type in the Slobozhanschyna culture is connected with the rethinking of modernity, it is not so critical, but unifying. Human beings in a globalized world must rely on the renewal of humanistic ideals, a sense of home and security. A new ethics is proposed based on the principles of freedom, democracy and respect for every individuality that extends a new understanding of spirituality in connection with national culture and national outlook.
THE ROLE OF UKRAINIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH OF THE KYIV PATRIARCHATE IN CONSOLIDATION OF UKRAINE
Authors: Fihurnyi Yurii
Published: May 2020

The article analyzes the important role of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Kyiv Patriarchate (hereinafter referred to as the UOC-KP) in consolidating Ukrainian society. The Christian religion, filled with Ukrainian content and spirit, is an important part of the Ukrainian ethno-cultural space. For many centuries Ukrainian Orthodoxy has actively promoted Ukrainian ethnic, state-building, nation-building and ethnocultural processes and consolidated Ukrainians. However, since the resubordination of the Kyiv Metropolitanate in 1686 to the Moscow Patriarchate, it has become an instrument of assimilation of Ukrainianity and the destruction of Ukrainian identity. For three centuries these destructive and assimilation processes concerning Ukrainian Orthodoxy continued. Since the beginning of the disintegration of the USSR, Ukrainians began a long struggle for the elimination of totalitarian-imperial and spiritualcolonial fetters. The process of restoration of the UOC was headed by Metropolitan Filaret (Denisenko). With the active assistance of Metropolitan Filaret, on June 25, 1992, the UOC-KP was created, and on October 22, 1995, he was elected its primate. At the turn of the millennium, the UOC-KP became one of the catalysts of the consolidation processes in post-colonial Ukraine. The UOC-KP systematically and purposefully implemented the Ukrainian language, the state outlook, the national-patriotic education among the clergy and its congregation, thereby bringing together Ukrainians and forming from the post-Soviet population conscious citizens of the Ukrainian state. The UOC-KP consistently consolidated Ukrainian society, united Ukrainian politicians with a state vision and, eventually, achieved its first victory. On October 11, 2018, the Holy Synod of the Ecumenical Patriarchate adopted a fateful decision to grant Ukrainian Orthodoxy the autocephaly.
IMPERIAL SRATEGIES AND DISCIURCES OF DOMINATION IN UKRAINIAN CULTURE
Authors: Kostenko Ganna
Published: May 2020

The imperial strategies and discourses of domination in modern Ukrainian culture, their manifestations in the Ukrainian literature on the basis of post-colonial and cultural-anthropological methodologies are analyzed. Integration and consolidation of Ukrainian national culture is an important state-building and globalization process. The very state of postcoloniality of contemporary Ukrainian culture demands new integrated philosophical studies of Ukrainian studies, including the emancipatory, decolonial socio-therapeutic goal. The questions of imperial strategies of domination, postcolonial discourse and globalization were covered in his writings by G. Grabovich, T. Gundorov, N. Zborovsk, M. Pavlyshyn, O. Titar, E. Thomson, O. Yurchuk. It is argued that the proliferation of an anti-colonial narrative is a definite step in overcoming the colonial heritage, but much more effective in overcoming colonialism is through democratization and the simultaneous spread of different types of discourses - postcolonial, decolonial, postimperial, anti-colonial, multicultural. Modern Ukrainian culture demonstrates both anti-colonial and post-colonial discourses. Socio-political and socio-cultural events of the last time especially actualize anti-colonial discourses, which is due to awareness of Ukraine as a former colony. At the same time, post-colonial discourses also demonstrate not only global but also national Ukrainian specifics. We see that colonialism in Ukraine, and, accordingly, the imperial resentment of the former metropolis with respect to Ukrainian lands, is not only a historical phenomenon, but a condition that determines and generates new conflicts up to an armed confrontation. In general, the texts of Ukrainian contemporary literature in view of the state of postcolonialism are classified into two types: 1) the type that focuses on the deconstruction of the imperial (postmodern post-colonialism), 2) the type that restores the Ukrainian national mythology (nationally oriented post-colonialism). The traces of the imperial are analyzed in the useful sense of the national-centered construction, and in the negative, when under the postmodern mask the cultural field of the Empire-Colony relations is restored. It is concluded that national Ukrainian culture will develop effectively only if the main imperial strategies are deconstructed and the main imperial myths are debunked.
INSTITUTE OF SCIENCE OF UKRAINIAN SOCIETY: CULTURAL MEASURES OF MODERNIZATION (TO THE 100TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE ACADEMY OF SCIENCE OF UKRAINE)
Authors: Petrykova Valentyna
Published: May 2020

The author investigates the organizational measures of modern Ukrainian society on the way of forming an effective system of science in accordance with the requirements of civilization development. Chronological boundaries of the study - the beginning of the nineteenth century until the present. The methodological basis for the study is the theoretical concept of the cyclical development of historical phenomena in relation to the world and local cultural spaces. The research is aimed at the cultural view of the modern problem of the modernization of the institute of science within the historically formed educational and scientific spaces of Ukraine. Taking a public view of the functioning of science in society for Ukraine is to identify it organizationally with the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. The Ukrainian Academy of Sciences (UAN) was founded on November 1, 1918. The Commission was responsible for the rationale for the creation of the Academy to draft a bill on the founding of the Academy of Sciences in Kyiv. The Commission included representatives of the Ukrainian scientific elite of that time, led by V.I. Vernadsky. The main functions of the UAN were the organization and coordination of the scientific forces of the state. The history of the development of the UAN testifies to the civilization content of the strategy for the development of national science for the entire period of the twentieth century. The beginning of the XXI century declared a new system of relations in the world society. The meaningfulness of such relationships is marked by a new post-industrial society. For Ukraine, the reform of the institute of science after world shifts is becoming urgent. The modern scientific space of Ukraine can be characterized as functioning of the coordinate system "universityacademy". An appeal to the principles of scientific democracy should ensure a balance between the development of science in the university sector and academic institutions. The financial self-determination of universities has an opportunity to actualize scientific research. The University is able today to ensure the development of the humanitarian component of science, which reproduces the traditions of national culture. The academic structure needs to reload the strategy for reforming the material and technical support of research work for the branches of science, which have high ratings in the countries of the world.

Background: Low back pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal problems among workers. Studies estimate that 90% of the adults will suffer at least one episode of low back pain in life that will lead to the temporary interruption of work. A type of exercise that has gained increasing popularity among individuals with low back pain in the last decade is the Pilates method. Objective: Determine the influence of the Pilates method on improvements in pain, kinesiophobia, central sensitization and function in patients with chronic nonspecific low back pain. Methods: Thirty-four male and female volunteers between 18 and 35 years of age with a complaint of nonspecific low back pain for at least three months will be divided into two groups: Pilates method and control group. An evaluation chart created by the authors will be used to collect data on personal information, history of diseases, alcohol use, smoking, pain intensity (visual analog scale) and medications used. The Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia, Central Sensitization Questionnaire and Oswestry Disability Index will also be administered. Pilates exercises will be performed three time per week for four weeks and administered by a researcher with adequate training in the method. Reevaluations will be performed after the sixth treatment session in the Pilates group, two weeks after the initial evaluation in the control group, after the 12th session in the Pilates group and after four weeks in the control group. Another reevaluation will be performed three months after treatment. Results: The data will be submitted to statistical analysis and the level of significance will be set to 5%. Conclusion: Based on the results analyzed it will be possible to determine the influence of Pilates Method on improvements in pain, kinesiophobia, central sensitization and function in patients with chronic nonspecific low back pain.

This paper presents the results of the selection and justification of the conditions for determination of a new biologically active compound (BAC) VMA-13-15, which is N-(2-[4-oxo-3(4H)-quinazolinyl]propionyl)guanidine bymeans of the spectrophotometry. By using the calculated values of BAC ionization constants, it was proposed to use purified water as a solvent. The maximum light absorption at 266 nm was chosen as the analytical wavelength. This was justified by the fact that in aqueous solutions 99% BAC are in the molecular form, which allows to determine it with the error limit of 1.29%, and with the least amount of dilutions. The study showed that the proposed method is specific and linear in the analytical concentration of 0.0010.004%, as well as it is precise and correct, which confirms the possibility of its use for quantitative determination.

This paper presents the findings of the study of the composition of phenolic compounds in black poplar leaves (Populus nigra L.). For the first time flavonoid compounds such as сalendoflavobioside (quercetin-3-O-neohesperidoside), rutin (quercetin-3-O-rutinoside), and ferulic acid (phenylpropanoid) have been extracted from the leaves of the black poplar by the methods of extraction and the following adsorption column chromatography on silica gel and on polyamide sorbent. The obtained substances were characterized with the use of UV-, 1H-NMR-, 13C-NMR-spectroscopy and mass spectrometry and also by means of the results of acid hydrolysis. The flavonoids are the dominant phenolic components of the raw material of this plant.

Introduction. The aim of the study is to perform the anatomical and histological analysis of the roots of Rheum palmatum L. and Rheum officinale B., and also to check histochemical reactions for the presence of anthracene derivatives.

Material and methods. The methodological basis of the anatomical and histological studies was the standard method for the preparation of micro-preparations of roots of Rheum palmatum L. and Rheum officinale B. described in the State Pharmacopoeia of the Russian Federation, XIV edition (OFS.1.5.3.003.15).

Results and discussion. Anatomical and histological studies of Rheum palmatum L. and Rheum officinale B. raw materials confirmed the roots of Rheum palmatum L. to have classical secondary structure, while the roots of Rheum officinale B. have classical primary structure. The histochemical reaction to anthracene derivatives with 10% alkali solution was carried out, it resulted in cherry-red staining of core rays and some structures of cortical parenchyma of the fragment of Rheum palmatum L., while the roots of Rheum officinale B. failed to stain.

Conclusions. The anatomical and histological studies of the rhizomes and roots of Rheum palmatum L. and Rheum officinale B. demonstrate the difference in the structure of closely related species of plants. It makes possible to identify the medicinal raw material of these plants.
