HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE AND LEGAL ASPECTS OF PROTECTION OF ANCIENT ROADS
Authors:   Voronezh State Pedagogical University, Timofeev Andrey N.
Published: June 2022

In Russia, little attention is paid to such unique historical and cultural sites as ancient roads. Many roads that existed in the past have not been studied by scientists; information about them is contained in ancient manuscripts, legends and traditions. There is no cadastre of ancient roads in Russia, the legal and regulatory system for the protection of ancient roads and the methodology for separating them into the category of historical and cultural monuments and protected areas have not been properly developed. Most of the oldest roads in Russia still do not have the status of protected areas or historical and cultural monuments, which are an irreplaceable heritage of mankind. The article draws attention not only to the need to give the status of monuments and protected areas to the ancient roads of Russia, but also proposes criteria for a qualitative assessment of the historical and cultural lands on which the ancient roads are located. Five main criteria are described: 1) chronological, including three types of historical and cultural road objects - underground, ground and landscape; 2) saturation of the territory with road monuments of historical and cultural significance; 3) the significance of the historical and cultural road object for understanding domestic and world cultural and historical processes; 4) preservation of the historical and cultural road object; 5) the use of a historical and cultural road object in educational, cultural, educational and religious activities. The methodology uses a chronological approach to the qualitative assessment of historical and cultural land plots, which allows it to be carried out taking into account the peculiarities of the historical and ethno-cultural processes of each specific area. The basis of the methodological approach to the assessment of historical and cultural lands in this article is the principle of assessing lands according to the historical and cultural significance of objects located on these land plots, which make these lands historical and cultural. Based on this principle, the selection and justification of criteria were carried out, according to which a qualitative assessment of historical and cultural lands is made. Thus, the development of a method for assessing historical and cultural lands is a method of comparative assessment of historical and cultural objects.
THYROID DOSES OF THE POPULATION AFTER THE CHERNOBYL ACCIDENT
Authors:   Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics, National Cancer Institute, Drozdovitch Vladimir V.
Published: June 2022

The accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant (NPP) in Ukraine on 26 April 1986 resulted in a significant release of radioactivity to the atmosphere, particularly of Iodine-131 (131I), with the greatest contamination occurring in Belarus, Ukraine, and western part of Russia. Increase in thyroid cancer and other thyroid diseases incidence in exposed population in these counties was the main health consequence of Chernobyl accident. Therefore, much attention was paid to the thyroid doses, mainly due to the 131I intake with foodstuffs during two months after the accident. This paper reviews the thyroid doses received by the population of the affected countries, both individual doses for subjects of radiation epidemiological studies and average doses for the population. Individual thyroid doses due to 131I intake varied up to 42 Gy and depended on the age of the person, region of residence at the time of the accident and cow’s milk consumption habits. The populationaverage thyroid doses among young children reached 0.75 Gy in the most contaminated area, Gomel Oblast, in Belarus. Intake of 131I was the main exposure pathway to the thyroid gland: its average contribution to the thyroid dose was more than 90 %. In addition to exposure from 131I, the intake of short-lived radioiodine (132I, 133I, 135I) and radiotellurium (131mTe, 132Te) isotopes, external irradiation from gamma-emitting radionuclides deposited on the ground, and 134Cs, 137Cs ingestion contributed to the thyroid doses, typically, not more than 10 %. Uncertainties associated with dose estimates, in terms of mean geometric standard deviation of individual stochastic doses, varied in range from 1.6 for doses based on individual-radiation measurements to 2.6 for ‘modelled’ doses. From a radiological point of view, 131I was the most important radionuclide that caused radiation exposure to the thyroid gland after the Chernobyl accident and an increase in the incidence of thyroid cancer and other thyroid diseases among the exposed population.

The article presents conceptual approaches to retrospective assessment and predictive modeling of radioactive contamination of the territory of the Republic of Belarus as a result of the Chernobyl accident. The work was carried out within the framework of project 3.01 «Investigation of the effect of ionizing radiation in a wide range of doses and with the variability of radiation characteristics at different levels of organization of a living organism», GPNI «Natural resources and the envi-ronment» of the subprogram «Radiation and biological systems» for 2021-2025. We determined the most significant radionuclide composition (for assessing the consequences of the release of radionuclides into the environment for biota) and the levels of radioactive contamination of ecosystem components in the observation zone of the Gomel, Vitebsk and Grodno regions of the Republic of Belarus. The radiation situation was considered at different time stages, namely as a result of atmospheric nuclear weapons testing and after an emergency release at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant [1; 2]. At present time, according to our data, in the observation zone of the Gomel, Vitebsk and Grodno regions of the Republic of Belarus, the radiation situation is caused by 23Cs and 90Sr radionuclides. The migration of 90Sr in the soil and through the food chain significantly increases as a result of the destruction of fuel particles and, as a consequence, 90Sr enters the soil solutions, after which it migrates deep into the soil. In addition, in the Gomel region, 241Am accumulates due to the decay of 241Pu. The maximum contamination level of 241Am will be established by 2060 and will exceed 239 + 240Pu by a factor of 2.7, while territories with a contamination level of 238 + 239 + 240Pu + 241Am up to 1000 Bq / m2 may possibly go outside the 30-km zone. The results of scientific research were introduced into the educational process within the framework of lectures and practical classes at the Faculty of Environmental Monitoring of the International Sakharov Environmental Institute of Belarusian State University.

The results of long-term studies of the flushing of humus and plant nutrition elements with water erosion on sod-podzolic soils are presented. Quantitative indicators of their losses with liquid and solid runoff during spring snowmelt and precipitation of runoff-forming rains under different agricultural crops have been established. During the spring snowmelt, the maximum runoff was observed on winter grain crops, the maximum soil washout was observed on winter plowing. Humus, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are lost mainly with solid runoff. During the spring snowmelt, the total losses of humus, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are 80.4, 5.4, 2.3 and 2.1 kg/ha per year, respectively, on winter crops - 28.6, 1.7, 0.7 and 0.6 kg/ha per year, under perennial grasses - 5.3, 0.2, 0.2 and 0.9 kg/ha per year. The maximum runoff and flushing of the soil during the fallout of runoff-forming rains was observed under row crops, the minimum - under perennial grasses. The main losses of humus, nitrogen and phosphorus under row and spring grain crops are noted with solid runoff. Under perennial grasses, humus is washed off more with liquid, and nitrogen and phosphorus -in equal amounts with liquid and solid runoff. Potassium is mainly carried out with the soil on row crops, and on winter cereals - with liquid runoff. On spring grain crops and perennial grasses, its losses with liquid and solid runoff are the same. In general, when cultivating row crops, humus losses with water erosion reach 240 kg/ ha per year, under spring grain and leguminous crops - 8-170, under winter grain - 25-45 kg / ha per year, and under perennial grasses no more than 10 kg/ha. Total nitrogen losses range from 12.5-46.0 kg/ha under row crops to 1.5-5.0 kg/ha under winter grain crops. Phosphorus and potassium losses amount to 4.5-20.0 kg/ha per year on row crops, 3.5-15.0 - on spring cereals and leguminous crops, 1.5-7.0 - on winter cereals and less than 2 kg/ha per year on perennial grasses.

The quality of radiation treatment for oncological diseases can be influenced by a large number of factors. Among them, the breaks that occur during the course of radiotherapy play an important role. Split courses of radiotherapy are used in the practice of radiation treatment of head and neck cancer, as well as prostate cancer. Breaks between the stages of the course of radiotherapy lasting 1-2 weeks are carried out in elderly, debilitated patients or in the presence of radiation reactions of 3-4 degrees. Before the start of radiotherapy, a set of measures is taken to prevent radiation reactions. This can affect the fact that the course of radiotherapy will be carried out without interruption. Using Cox regression, it is proposed to evaluate the effect of interruptions in the course of radiotherapy on the outcome of treatment for head and neck tumors, as well as the prostate tumors taking into account the observation period.

Keratinases, which specifically hydrolyze keratin-like proteins, are resistant to degradation by conventional proteolytic enzymes, and to a much lesser extent-with respect to the complex of alkaline proteases necessary for the hydrolysis of plant proteins. In turn, microorganisms with keratinolytic activity represent a potential for biotechnologies. In connection with the above, the purpose of this work was to study the possibility of creating a recombinant bacterial strain that produces highly active keratinase.

The effect of polymer-encapsulated fluorescent semiconductor core-shell CdSe/ZnS nanoparticles on the formation of reactive oxygen species and cell viability has been studied. The studies were carried out on Hela and Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cells using the method of flow cytometry. It was shown that the positive zeta potential of nanoparticles promotes their binding to cells, an increase in the cellular level of reactive oxygen species and a decrease in survival. Induction of apoptotic and necrotic death of cells exposed to nanoparticles with positive zeta potential was shown.

It was shown in experiments on rats that a short-term stressful effect in the form of forced swimming causes a sharp release of cortisol into the blood, as well as a significant increase in the level of thyroid-stimulating hormone in animals kept on a standard diet (control group). A high-calorie diet leads not only to visceral obesity and the development of signs of metabolic syndrome, but also causes a significant increase in the levels of thyroidstimulating hormone, thyroxine and triiodothyronine in the blood serum in rats. Obese animals do not develop the stress responses typical of the control group.
