Zmiany struktury ekonomicznej gospodarstw rolnych w Polsce – ocena opóźnień w rozwoju strukturalnym
Authors: Rzeszutko Anna
Published: January 2018

Celem artykułu była próba oceny opóźnień w rozwoju strukturalnym rolnictwa w Polsce w układzie regionalnym wraz z oceną procesów upodabniania się struktury ekonomicznej gospodarstw rolnych. Strukturę tę wyznaczono na podstawie wartości standardowej produkcji (SO ). Badania przeprowadzono dla okresu 2005-2013 na podstawie danych Eurostatu. Do oceny opóźnień posłużono się procedurą proponowaną przez K. Kukułę z wykorzystaniem metod statystycznej regionalnej analizy strukturalnej. Procedura ta wymagała wskazania struktury wzorcowej (województwa-wzorca), którą wyznaczono z wykorzystaniem syntetycznego miernika poziomu rozwoju Hellwiga. Przeprowadzone badania wskazują, iż największymi opóźnieniami w rozwoju strukturalnym charakteryzowały się województwa w południowo-wschodniej Polsce. Jednocześnie w województwach tych dystans strukturalny w stosunku do województwa-wzorca (woj. wielkopolskiego) zwiększył się w badanym okresie.
Stopień globalizacji branż polskiego przemysłu spożywczego a ich wyniki ekonomiczne
Authors: Baran Joanna
Published: January 2018

Głównym celem artykułu było określenie, czy istnieje zależność między stopniem globalizacji branż polskiego przemysłu spożywczego a ich wydajnością pracy, technicznym uzbrojeniem pracy i produktywnością. W pierwszym etapie badań podzielono 16 branż przemysłu spożywczego na 3 grupy: o bardzo wysokim stopniu globalizacji (grupa 1), wysokim (grupa 2) oraz niskim (grupa 3). Podziału dokonano na podstawie udziałów korporacji transnarodowych w wartości przychodów ze sprzedaży w poszczególnych branżach przemysłu spożywczego. Następnie porównano wyodrębnione grupy, wykorzystując tradycyjne wskaźniki (wydajności pracy, produktywności środków trwałych), a także wielowymiarowe wskaźniki produktywności bazujące na metodzie Malmquist Productivity Index (MPI ). Przeprowadzone badania wykazały, że branże o bardzo wysokim i wysokim poziomie globalizacji charakteryzowały się zdecydowanie wyższą wydajnością pracy i wyższymi wynagrodzeniami dla pracowników. Branże te odnotowały ponadto niższą niż branże o niskim poziomie globalizacji produktywność środków trwałych oraz podobną produktywność całkowitą, mierzoną metodą MPI.
Ekonomiczne i organizacyjne zmiany w gospodarstwach mlecznych należących do Europejskiego Stowarzyszenia Producentów Mleka
Authors: Kołoszycz Ewa
Published: January 2018

W opracowaniu scharakteryzowano zmiany, które zaszły w gospodarstwach wyspecjalizowanych w produkcji mleka w okresie przed reformą rynku mleka w Europie i po niej. Do badań wybrano 124 gospodarstwa należące do Europejskiego Stowarzyszenia Producentów Mleka (EDF ), które w latach 2012-2016 uczestniczyły w analizach kosztów produkcji mleka. Wyniki badań wskazują, że we wszystkich grupach analizowanych gospodarstw nastąpił wyraźny wzrost produkcji, wynikający zarówno ze wzrostu wielości stad krów, jak i z poprawy wydajności mlecznej. Zaobserwowano wzrost intensywności wykorzystania ziemi i pracy, a także pogorszenie produktywności kapitału zaangażowanego w produkcję mleka. Największe różnice między grupami w ponoszonych kosztach produkcji mleka były w kosztach alternatywnych i amortyzacji. Niekorzystna sytuacja cenowa na rynku w 2016 r. sprawiła, że całkowite koszty produkcji mleka były niższe od cen mleka zaledwie w 12% analizowanych gospodarstwach.

Published: January 2018

Borassus aethiopum extract as a biological extender was evaluated on semen
quality, fertility and hatchability in chickens under conditions of warm
preservation at 37oC. The extenders were prepared in 1:5 and 1:10 ratios
(extract to normal saline) and preserved for 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 hours
respectively in a factorial design layout. There was no significant (p>0.05)
effect of the extender on semen characteristics within 2 hours of
preservation. However, motility (%) was significantly (p<0.05) reduced when
the semen was preserved for more than 2 hours. Interactions between the
extender ratios and the period of preservation were significant (p<0.05) for
motility (%), dead and abnormal cells. Motility (%) was insignificantly
(p>0.05) higher in the extender of 1:10 than in the extender of 1:5 and it
was above 70%. Using the extender of 1:10 in the fertility and hatchability
trial in a completely randomized design layout showed that fertility
decreased, 95% in the 0- hour treatment to 73% in the 4-hour treatment while
hatchability decreased from 71.4% in the 0-hour treatment to 61.5% in the
4-hour treatment. It may be concluded that the Borassus aethiopum extract
could be used to extend and preserve the semen of chickens for 3 hours
providing good fertility and hatchability of eggs.
Anesthetic effects of clove (Eugenia aromaticum) seed extract on Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822) fingerlings under semi-arid conditions
Authors: Diyaware Mohammed , Suleiman Sa’adu , Akinwande Akinlolu , Aliyu Mohammed
Published: January 2018

The anesthetic effects of clove (Eugenia aromaticum) seed extract on Clarias
gariepinus fingerlings were investigated under semi-arid conditions. Various
concentrations of the clove seed extract at 25.0, 50.0, 75.0, 100.0, 125.0
and 150.0mg per liter of water were used for the experiment. Each
concentration was tested on a group of 10 Clarias gariepinus fingerlings
(24.13-25.30g in weight and 5.97-7.00 cm in length) in glass aquariums. There
was a decrease in induction time as the concentration of the clove seed
extract increased. Fingerlings treated with 150mg/l of the extract produced
the shortest induction time (2.28?0.15 minutes), followed by fish treated
with 100 and 125mg/l (3.31?0.55 and 3.07?0.07 minutes, respectively). The
longest induction time (10.60?0.98, 7.52?0.25 and 5.96?1.17 minutes) was
observed in fingerlings sedated with 50, 25 and 75mg/l, respectively.
Recovery was significantly faster (2-3.92 minutes) in fish treated with lower
dosages (25 to 125mg/l) of the clove seed extract. Mortality rates after 24
hours of recovery were higher (4.79?0.25 and 3.10?0.54%) in fish anesthetized
with higher (150 and 125mg/l) concentrations of the clove seed extract,
respectively.
Nanocomposite of γ-Fe2O3 immobilized on graphene oxide for remediation of Ni(II) ions - kinetics, isotherm and thermodynamics studies
Authors: Kaur Ubhi , Kaur Manpreet , Singh Dhanwinder , Greneche Jean
Published: January 2018

Facile sonication method was used to immobilize ?-Fe2O3 nanoparticles (NPs) on
graphene oxide (GO) to obtain environmentally stable ?-Fe2O3-GO nanocomposite
(NC). Structure, surface morphology and composition of NC were thoroughly
studied. M?ssbauer analysis confirmed the presence of maghemite (?-Fe2O3) as
dominant phase of iron oxide. TEM images of NC revealed homogeneous
distribution of ?-Fe2O3 NPs over the GO nanosheet. A comparative analysis of
GO, ?-Fe2O3 NPs and NC for the removal of Ni(II) ions from water was carried
out by batch method and adsorption kinetics, thermodynamics and isotherms
were also studied. The adsorption data fitted better to Langmuir and
Freundlich adsorption isotherms as compared to Dubinin Radushkevich (D-R)
and Temkin adsorption isotherms. NC showed higher qmax value (615.0mg/g) as
compared to the pristine GO (403.7mg/g) and ?-Fe2O3 NPs (572.4mg/g). The
adsorption kinetics followed pseudo-second-order model. NC displayed greater
affinity for Ni(II) ions in comparison to pristine GO and ?-Fe2O3 NPs. The
results suggested that the synthesized ?-Fe2O3-GO nanocomposite can be used
as a promising novel material for the removal of Ni(II) from water due to
its higher adsorption capacity, stability, convenient magnetic separation
and regeneration.
Ce1-xFexO2 nanocatalysts for priority organic pollutants removal through catalytic wet air oxidation
Authors: Anushree A , Sharma Chhaya , Kumar Satish
Published: January 2018

A series of Ce1-xFexO2 nanocatalysts, prepared by co-precipitation method,
were applied for the catalytic oxidation of priority organic pollutants
present in paper industry wastewater. To investigate the synergic effect of
various Fe contents, detailed characterizations of Ce1-xFexO2 were done by
Raman, XPS, XRD, TEM and EDX techniques. The addition of Fe to CeO2 lattice
increased the amount of oxygen vacancies, which have an efficient role in the
oxidation of organic pollutants under oxygen-rich conditions. Ce0.4Fe0.6O2
catalyst showed the highest removal of TOC (72%), AOX (68%), chlorophenols
(62%) and chloroguaicols (86%). The superior catalytic activity of
Ce0.4Fe0.6O2 is ascribed to its higher oxygen vacancy concentration. The
presence of two oxidation states of Ce (4+,3+) and Fe (3+,2+) confirmed the
role of redox couples in oxidation of organic pollutants.
Thermomechanical properties of mullitic materials
Authors: Urbánek Jan , Hamácek Jiří , Machácek Jan , Kutzendörfer Jaroslav , Hubálková Jana
Published: January 2018

Mechanical tests provide important information about the properties and
behaviour of materials. Basic tests include the measurement of flexural
strength and in case of refractory materials, the measurement of flexural
strength at high temperatures as well. The dependence of flexural strength on
the temperature of ceramic materials usually exhibits a constant progression
up to a certain temperature, where the material starts to melt and so the
curve begins to decline. However, it was discovered that ceramic mullitic
material with a 63 wt.% of Al2O3 exhibits a relatively significant maximum
level of flexural strength at about 1000?C and refractory mullitic material
with a 60 wt.% of Al2O3 also exhibits a similar maximum level at about
1100?C. The mentioned maximum is easily reproducible, but it has no
connection with the usual changes in structure of material during heating.
The maximum was also identified by another measurement, for example from the
progression of the dynamic Young?s modulus or from deflection curves. The aim
of this work was to analyse and explain the reason for the flexural strength
maximum of mullitic materials at high temperatures.
Emerging of social movement: Value orientations of particpants of the Protest against Dictatorship
Authors: Backovic Vera , Petrovic Irena
Published: January 2018

The object of the paper is the analysis of value orientations of the
participants of the Protest against Dictatorship - activism, democratic
orientation, authoritarianism, egalitarianism, economic
liberalism/redistributive etatism and (post) materialism. The main
assumption of our analysis is that acceptance of common values is the
precondition for constitution of social movement. Namely, if actors share
the same values, and by continuous action tend to achieve goals which arise
from common value patterns, we can speak of the existence of social
movement. Our analysis is based on the data gathered through empirical
research of the participants of the Protest against Dictatorship, which was
conducted by the Institute for Sociological Research of the Faculty of
Philosophy on the sample of 175 respondents, in the period from April 13 to
May 4 2017 year.
Transnational social movements in the internet era: The case of „Avaaz”
Authors: Stojadinovic Mladen
Published: January 2018

The paper will deal with concept and range of transnational social movements
at the beginning of 21st century, which is a period characterized by huge
growth of importance of new technologies and Internet. We will be interested
in the role of transnational social movements which base or at least
overwhelmingly organize their activity through Internet and social networks;
?Avaaz? will be taken as an example since it is the most popular activist
community at the mentioned network. The key aim will be to describe and
partly explain the possibilities that Internet provides for functioning of
movements, but also to give indications of strategic and tactical changes in
their actions, as well as of dangers such type of technology can cause in
relation to practical social and political consequences. Firstly, it will
shortly be spoken about the concept of transnational social movements, then
about the relation between Internet and democracy, conditions that lead to
development of new practices such as direct democracy or e-democracy and
about the political participation on the Internet. Then the focus will move
to ?Avaaz? movement, its recent features and activities, the ethics of this
movement that might be defined as cosmopolitan, but also to critics that
might be directed to ?Avaaz?. The final part of the paper will be devoted to
considerations on transnational social movement?s future and their real and
potential impact on emergence of global civil society, in order to assess the
achievements of this particular and similar movements.

Transplante de fígado é um dos procedimentos cirúrgicos mais complexos e invasivos no campo da contemporaneidade médica. A mortalidade pós-cirúrgica está diretamente ligada à experiência da equipe multidisciplinar responsável, sendo a doença hepática avançada responsável por diversas alterações metabólicas. O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar o impacto de um programa de reabilitação física sobre a capacidade funcional em candidata ao transplante de fígado. Foi analisada uma paciente do sexo feminino, de 43 anos, com diagnóstico médico de cirrose biliar primária (fibrose porta portal) havia 6 anos, apresentando antecedentes de hipertensão arterial, diabetes mellitus e dislipidemia. A participante foi avaliada antes do início do protocolo de treinamento, e após, por meio de uma avaliação específica. Inicialmente, foi realizado tratamento fisioterapêutico: (I) avaliação dos sinais vitais; (II) 20 minutos de condicionamento físico, quando os primeiros minutos de exercícios iniciais e os finais foram direcionados ao aquecimento e ao resfriamento, respectivamente; (III) fortalecimento do quadríceps femoral na cadeira extensora; e (IV) 5 minutos de desaquecimento com alongamentos. Assim, este estudo proporcionou melhor abordagem quanto às limitações pessoais e às características da doença, servindo como parâmetro a um futuro programa de tratamento fisioterapêutico, baseado na reabilitação e melhora da capacidade funcional.

Authors: Zygmunt Aleksandra
Published: January 2018

Research background: The uncertainty in the environment and rapid changes have impact on firms, regions and countries. The necessity to adapt to new conditions requires a stimulation of actions aimed at enhancing competitiveness and economic growth. In this respect, the European Union strategy called Europe 2020 should be mentioned. Regarding the role of firms? innovation activities in economic growth of regions and countries, substantial im-portance was attached to how innovation activities of Polish firms differ from those from the other EU countries with a level of innovation similar to Poland. Here, a particular emphasis was put on Moderate Innovator countries.

Purpose of the article: The aim of this paper is to investigate Polish firms? innovation activities against those by other Moderate Innovator countries.

Methodology: In the study a multivariate analysis and zero unitarization methods were applied. These methods allowed for a division of Moderate Innovator countries into four groups and for a multivariate analysis of firms? innovation activities in Poland and other EU countries with a level of innovation similar to Poland. The study was based on data from the European Innovation Scoreboard 2016 relating to dimensions of firm activities: firm in-vestments, linkage & entrepreneurship and intellectual assets. The study referred to the period 2008?2015.

Findings & Value added: This paper contributes to the existing literature by providing new insight on understanding the issues related to firms? innovation activities. The analysis has revealed several conclusions. One of them indicated the highest distance of Polish firms to those from the other Moderate Innovator countries, in terms of SMEs innovating in-house, innovative SMEs collaborating with others and public-private co-publications. The findings have practical and policy implications. It is assumed that the obtained results may be useful for firms, regions and countries in adaptation to uncertainty in the environment and, therefore, in maintaining  competitive advantage capacity.
Psychological factors influence on energy efficiency in households
Authors: Simanaviciene Zaneta , Virgilijus Dirma , Simanavicius Arturas
Published: January 2018

Research background: Most of the studies and their authors focus on the social and eco-nomic impacts of energy-saving behavior. However, they do not focus on the psychological factors affecting the efficiency of energy consumption in households. Lithuania has a lack of a unified and justified opinion on psychological factors that affect the energy efficiency of households.

Purpose of the article: The main objective of the article is to identify the psychological factors that influence energy efficiency in households and to identify the appropriate measures to change the individual?s energy consumption behavior.

Methods: The article was based on analysis of scientific literature and expert evaluation, when experts selected the most influencing psychological factors. Expert valuation allowed to set the right conditions in which individuals are more easily assimilated by means of energy saving.

Findings: In most cases, economic and technological factors significantly influence household energy consumption. Increased energy-efficient equipment production and supply is causing an energy consumption growth in households, because they are more inclined to buy and use more efficient electrical equipment. An investigation has showed that the energy consumption is strongly influenced by some cultural and psychological factors: with greater public openness to innovation, the households tend to use energy more efficiently. Also, some psychological indicators have significant impact on energy consumption has ? frequently the more pronounced neuroticism or extraversion rate. Since the research was performed only in Lithuania, in the future it will seek to carry out an investigation in several countries and to compare a various factors on the proposed measures and the efficiency of household energy consumption.

Early marriage family refer to united people by blood or adoption, consisting of husband, wife, children and other family members in which one of husband or wife or both of them are married under 20 years old. The purpose of this study was to analyze the correlation and the influence of economic pressure and coping strategy on family strength among early marriage family. The study was conducted in the Cihideung Udik village and Tegal Waru village, Ciampea Sub District, Bogor Distr. The samples of this research were families who the husband or wife or both were under 20 years old when they were married and had children who aged 0-6 years old. There were 70 mothers of sample families as respondents. This research showed that the family economic pressures were in the the medium category, family coping strategies were in the low category, and family strength were in the medium category. Family strength affected by length of marriage, number of family member, and economic pressure. Moreover, the number of family members and length of marriage had a significant positive influence on family strength. On the other hand, economic pressures had a significant negative influence on family strength. Further research is expected to involve husband in interviews and to involve some variables that can give a comprehensive empirical evidence to explore the life of early marriage family; such as family resource management, family adjustment, intimacy of married couples, and child development of young couples.

AbstrakSebagai negara yang sudah merdeka selama 68 tahun, Indonesia seharusnya sudah mempunyai sistem hukumnya sendiri yang sesuai dengan kepribadian bangsa Indonesia. Sistem hukum Indonesia tersebut harus dibangun berdasarkan Pancasila yang menampilkan karakteristik ke-Indonesia-an di tengah-tengah sistem hukum lain di dunia. Sistem hukum Pancasila merupakan suatu sistem hukum yang bermoral dan bermartabat. Bermoral berarti bahwa sistem hukum di Indonesia sistem hukum yang merdeka dari korupsi. Sedangkan sistem hukum yang bermartabat adalah sistem hukum yang menjunjung nilai-nilai kemanusiaan terutama di bidang HAM.AbstractHaving been independent for 68 years, Indonesia should have had its own legal system that suits the character of the Indonesian nation. Indonesias legal system have to be constructed based on Pancasila which reflects all the characteristics of Indonesia particularity in the midst of other legal systems in the world. The legal system based on Pancasila is a legal system that emphasizes moral and human dignity. Legal morality means that the legal system in Indonesia is free from corruption. While the legal system with dignity is a legal system that upholds the values of humanity, especially in the field of human rights.
Filosofia e religião Grécia: dinâmica de ruptura e diálogo
Authors: Humphreys Sally C.
Published: January 2018

One aspect of the problem we have been asked to examine can be formulated in the question: how does it come about, in the 'axial age', that men start to ask whether human social organization and political decisions should be dominated by religious imperatives, and start to compare the claims of differing religious and/or secular accounts of the cosmos. What I propose to do in this paper is to look at the dynamics of this process by analysing the impact on Greek (and especially Athenian) religious thought and practice, and on poetry, of the pressures towards secularization and rationalization wich we can discern in Greek culture in the period between c. 550 and 300 B. C.
O gênero deliberativo na oratória grega: A Terceira filípica de Demóstenes e a Retórica de Aristóteles
Authors: Fonseca Isis Borges R. da
Published: January 2018

L'ingeniosité dans le dévéloppement de l’art de parler chez les Grecs peut être appreciée dès le début de leur littérature. Néanmoins, ce n’est qu’au Ve siècle av. J.-C. qu'apparaît une théorie de cet art, en Sicile, rattachée alors à la Grèce comercialement et politiquement. Au IVe siècle av. J.-C., à Athènes, Aristote, dans sa Rhétorique, définit clairement les normes de la critique des discours. Il faut donc se fonder sur Aristote pour étudier ce modèle du genre délibératif qu’est la Troisième Philippique de Démosthène, où ressort l’habilité de l’orateur dans la combinaison des types de pésteis.

The Shield of Achilles and the Temple of Venus
Authors: Schwartz Stephen Lee , Mendes João Pedro
Published: January 2018

As diferenças entre a epopeia e o romance podem ser ressaltadas através da comparação da descrição do escudo de Aquiles, na Ilíada de Homero, e do Templo de Venus em The Knight’s Tale de Chaucer. Homero escreveu sobre o que definimos como detalhes da vida diária em situações contemporâneas das origens do poema; Chaucer, pelo contrário, transpõe os artifícios do amor cortes medieval para uma elaborada versão da mitologia grega: especificamente, a corte de Teseu em Atenas, transformada de tal modo que pareceria estranha a um grego da época clássica. Isso não significa que a epopeia e mais realista que o romance, mas que a epopeia e menos artificial e menos fantástica que o romance em sua visão de mundo.

O uso do transe extático no processo da adivinhação babilônica
Authors: Bouzon Emanuel
Published: January 2018

Este artigo analisa uma série de textos cuneiformes da antiga Babilônia em vários de seus períodos. Sabe-se, por esses tabletes, que, além da adivinhação dedutiva, sem dúvida a mais abundantemente testemunhada, existiu um outro tipo de contato com a divindade: a adivinhação "inspirada", em que os deuses comunicavam a sua mensagem a um intermediário em estado de transe. Nos textos conhecidos este intermediário recebia o título de mahhûm ou muhhûm no caso de um homem e mahhûtum ou muhhûtum no caso de uma mulher.

A adivinhação no mundo helenizado do segundo século
Authors: Brandão Jacyntho Lins
Published: January 2018

Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar as relações entre adivinhação e pensamento científico na época dos Antoninos, questionando se a evolução das instituições encontra eco no papel e na função das práticas divinatórias no segundo século. Ressalto os seguintes pontos:  1. a antiguidade das práticas divinatórias na Grécia, o que põe em questão a tese de uma "invasão oriental" a partir da época helenística; 2. as relações entre a importância de textos escritos que transmitem uma sabedoria muito antiga e o culto da tradição na época da Segunda Sofística; 3. as relações da adivinhação com os "homens santos", dotados de grande erudição e de virtudes extraordinárias; 4. as relações entre adivinhação e ciência no contexto do debate religioso do segundo século.

Electra en Piñera
Authors: Cancela Elina Miranda
Published: January 2018

Este artigo e uma análise da Electra Garrigó de Virgilio Piñera, teatrólogo cubano, e das suas vinculações com o teatro trágico grego, sobretudo com a Electra de Sófocles, acrescida ainda de aproximações com autores modernos que trataram do mesmo tema. Apesar da inspiração grega, Piñera permanece um típico teatrólogo nacional, marcado pelos momentos de grande tensão social da sua época (a tragédia em apreço data de 1941). O conflito produzido pela excessiva autoridade dos pais sobre os filhos, latente neste mito, interessa-o por seu significado dentro da família cubana.

Natural Killer (NK) cells are known to lyse tumor cells lacking MHC-I and expressing ligands for activating receptors, thereby participating in cancer immune surveillance. However, their function and phenotype change significantly in cancer patients. The precise molecular mechanism(s) involved in this phenomenon remain unknown. The aim of the present study was to investigate changes of both receptor phenotype and cytotoxic activity of NK cells cocultured with K562 and HepG2 cells in dual-chamber Transwell® plates. A decrease of NK cell cytotoxicity against K562 cells was demonstrated. This effect was not a result of changes in perforin, granzyme or CD107a expression by NK cells or by production of cytokines (IFNγ, TNFα, IL-10, and TGFβ). No changes in the expression of a majority of NK cell receptors (CD16, CD69, 2B4, NKG2A, NKG2D, NKp30, NKp44, NKp46, and DNAM1) were observed. Only an increase in the percentage of NK cells bearing inhibitory receptor TIGIT was found as a result of co-culture with tumor cells. Possible molecular mechanisms of altered NK cell cytotoxicity involving TIGIT are discussed.

Increase wheat yields by improving its genotype – one of the most urgent problems of the rural economy. At present, using traditional methods of selection and genetic studies, such as backcross selection, distant hybridization, experimental mutagenesis, increased efficiency of obtaining genetically modified and improved forms of wheat. Thehigh content of mono phosphorus (H3PO4, 5%) leads to a weak mutagenic effect, and its 0.1% concentration promotes the development of plants biomass. Fertility rates of soft wheat hybrids crosses with wild species (Т. timopheevii, Т. dicoccum and T. kiharae) depend on the direction of crossing and genotypes of initial varieties. Wild species as the parent component positively affect the high percentage of grain fertility. Genome of Nadezhda variety is compatible with genomes of wild species [1, 2].

We have observed an easily determinable parameter indicative of genetic pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) tolerance – the presence of an endosperm factor, presumably ABA, capable of inhibiting nitrate reductase (NR) induction in the embryo in the presence of NO3. This finding has importance not only for the early rapid screening of PHS tolerant of cereal cultivars but may also be an important tool to determine the mechanism of NR inhibition either by genetic repression or by post-translational down regulation of NR activity. In this work we sought a simplerelationship between ABA content and NR activity level that we assumed to be closely related to PHS susceptibility. Studied the relationship between ABA content, dry weight and ability to germinate in seeds of examined wheat varieties resistant to preharvest sprouting Lutescens 70, and unstable – Novosibirskaya 67. The data obtained are shown that the level of ABA reaching its maximum to 40-45 days . The maximum content of ABA for both varieties accounted for 40 days after flowering, when the grains reach maximum wet weight in the future, as the ripening hormone levels quickly decreased with the decrease in fresh weight of grain . The level of ABA in embryos unstable to pre-harvest sprouting wheat Novosibirskaya 67 ranged from 20 to 40% below the level of the hormone in the grains resistant Lutescens 70wheat. The results showed a significant increase in the ability to germinate, since it is a phase 40-45 DAP. Reduction of endogenous ABA content in grains at the final stage of maturation, with a relatively high percentage of germination, can be explained by the need and ensuring to the start of the germination process of the seed.

Hydrogels and copolymers of 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate and 2-hydroxyethylacrylate structured with 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane nanoparticles of different composition and nanoparticles concentration have been synthesized and characterized using IR-spectroscopy, SEM, small angle X-ray scattering, compression mechanical test, thermogravimetric analysis, iodometry. Mucoadhesive properties of obtained hydrogels were investigated. Study revealed that increase in concentration of hydrophilic component, nanoparticles content and crosslinking agent concentration reflects an increase of adhesion time of obtained hydrogel materials. Drug loading and drug release studies of HEA-HEMA-MPTS samples with metronidazole were conducted. It was observed that thiolated samples absorb more drug amount than non-thiolated ones. As nanoparticles concentration increases metronidazole content rises respectively. Drug release studies revealed that the higher concentration of 3-MPTS nanoparticles in hydrogels results in prolongation of drug release but concentration of discharged metronidazole decreases.
