USE OF SEDIMENT QUALITY GUIDELINES FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF CONTAMINATED SEDIMENTS OF UKRAINIAN ESTUARIES
The article describes that many countries throughout the world share similar concerns about sediment management. Scientists in several countries have developed a variety of methods for evaluating the de-gree to which sediment-associated chemicals might adversely affect aquatic organisms. The results of ex-periment where consensus approach was used for sediments assessment of Dnieper and Buh estuary and Danube estuary in Ukraine are presented in article
Development of a Wastewater Treatment Biotechnology Based on Immobilised Microorganisms
The wastewater treatment processes involving immobilised microorganisms of the activated sludge have been studied. An experimental laboratory unit, which is a flow channel-like reactor operating in a recirculation mode with biomass attached to the nozzle, was developed and assembled. Plant residues of straw and sawdustwith the immobilised microflora of the activated sludge from the treatment plants of PAO Koks PJSC, Kemerovo were used as a nozzle. The unit consists of a cascade of tanks placed on a special stand. The results showed an increase in the number of microorganisms during the experiment and a decrease in the concentration of phenol, total ammonia and COD in the treated water, which is indicative of the effectiveness of water purification based on the technology.

«ПОРТРЕТ МИТЦЯ НА СХИЛІ ВІКУ» Д. ХЕЛЛЕРА: ТРАНСФОРМАЦІЯ АВТОБІОГРАФІЧНОГО НАРАТИВУ В АВТОПОРТРЕТІ-ПРОВОКАЦІЇ
The article investigates the transformation of the autobiographical narrative in the novel by the famous American writer J. Heller «Portrait of an artist, as an old man». This final work for the writer is considered in the light of such modern conceptions as autofiction (S. Doubrovsky), parrhesia (M. Foucault) and «autobiographical pact» (F. Lejeune). The intertextual relations with classical and modernist texts of French and Anglo-American literature (M. Montaigne, Mark Twain, M. Proust, T. S. Eliot, James Joyce) were revealed. Also it was noted that the destruction of the guideline of a (self) portrait genre to search for «similarity» was laid in the complex nature of autofictionality of Heller’s self-portraiture. Heller’s autobiographical text is the intentionally literary story; he adds his own «portrait» to the dense intertext of Anglo-American literature, thinking about a writer’s role, a problem of immortality in a life-creation in connection with his own identity.Keywords: J.

Хеллера «Портрет митця на схилі віку». Цей підсумковий для письменника твір розглянуто в руслі сучасних концепцій автофікції (С. Дубровські), парезії (М. Фуко), «автобіографічного пакту» (Ф. Лежен). Виявлено інтертекстуальні зв’язки з класичними і модерністськими текстами французької та англо-американської літератури (М. Монтень, Марк Твен, М. Пруст, Т. С. Еліот, Дж. Джойс). Визначено, що в складній природі автофікціональності хеллерівського портрета закладено руйнацію настанови жанру (авто)портрета на пошук «схожості». Постмодерністська стилістика «подвійного кодування» дозволяє Д. Хеллеру не лише активізувати роль «свого» читача, для якого знайомство з його автобіографією – основний інструмент читання цього роману, але й «знімає» важливість автобіографічного в ньому, вибудовуючи пародійний, ігровий характер тексту. Автобіографічний текст Д. Хеллера зумисне літературний; він вписує свій «портрет» у щільний інтертекст англо-американської літератури, роздумуючи про творчість, роль письменника, проблему безсмертя в житті-творчості у зв’язку із власною особистістю.Ключові слова: Д.

Хеллера «Портрет художника в старости». Это итоговое для писателя произведение рассмотрено в русле современных концепций автофикции (С. Дубровски), паррезии (М.

Пруст, Т. С. Элиот, Дж. Джойс). Отмечено, что в сложной природе автофикциональности хеллеровского портрета заложено разрушение установки жанра портрета на поиск «похожести». Постмодернистская стилистика «двойного кодирования» позволяет Д. Хеллеру не только активизировать роль «своего» читателя, длякоторого знакомство с его биографией – основной инструмент чтения этого романа, но и «снимает» важность автобиографического в нем, выстраивая пародийный, игровой характер «текста в тексте». Автобиографический текст Д. Хеллера намеренно литературный; он вписывает свой «портрет» в интертекст англо-американской литературы, размышляя о творчестве, роли писателя, проблеме бессмертия в жизни-творчестве в связи с собственной личностью.

Synthesis and structure of 2′-substituted 1-(1,3-dioxan-5-yl)uracils. Positive role of the Eu(fod)3 nmr shift reagent
The configuration of 1-(2-R-1,3-dioxan-5-yl)uracils and the conformation of the dioxane ring in these compounds were investigated by 1H NMR spectroscopy with the aid of the Eu(fod)3 shift reagent. It is shown that the dioxane ring exists in the preferred chair conformation with an axial orientation of the pyrimidine ring; this is confirmed by the resonance of the 5′-Ha proton in the form of a broad singlet with υ1/2υ8.5 Hz. An analysis of the spectral peculiarities of the synthesized compounds made it possible to establish the orientation of the substituents attached to the second C2 steric center. The three-dimensional structure of 1-(2, 2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-5-yl)uracil was determined by an x-ray diffraction study, and the axial orientation of the pyrimidine ring was confirmed. It is shown that significant flattening of the carbon part of the ring (ψ = 46.6 °) is observed in this molecule. An intramolecular (C6...O1, = 3.05 Å) hydrogen bond was observed in the molecule of this compound. © 1982 Plenum Publishing Corporation
HugeNon-Organ Retroperitoneal Tumor inCombination with aCystoma of Uterine Appendages
The article describes the experience of successful diagnostics and treatment of giant non-organ extraperitoneal tumor combined with a cystoma of uterine appendages.Patient P., 43 years old, was hospitalized in the oncology department, diagnosed with “Abdominal tumor, right ovary?” The state was satisfactory, after palpation of the abdomen, a lumpy formation of a densely elastic consistency, from the womb to the epigastric region, was found. An ultrasound revealed a homogeneous tumor formation 30×28 cm from the border of the uterus to the liver. When performing median laparotomy, a dumbbell-shaped tumor (36×26×20 cm) was found in the retroperitoneal space with involvement of the mesentery of the small intestine, lower horizontal portion of the duodenum, mesentery of the transverse colon, superior mesenteric vessels, aorta and jejunum. In the right appendages, a cystoma 12–15 cm in diameter was found, with inversion and necrosis. Adnexectomy was performed. An express lymph node biopsy revealed cells suspicious for malignancy. The tumor was mobilized and removed as a single unit with retroperitoneal tissue, lymph nodes in combination with resection of 70 cm of the jejunum and fenestrated resection of the duodenum. The resulting gut defect 9×7 cm was sutured with a precision single-row suture. Inter-intestinal anastomosis “endto-end” was formed. Nasointestinal intubation was performed. The abdominal cavity was sutured, and two tubular drainages were installed. The postoperative period was uneventful. The histological conclusion: fibrous histiocytoma of the mesentery of the intestine with malignancy in the center of the node, in the ovary – total hemorrhagic infiltration of all layers, edema. The tumor conference consultation was recommended. After 1.5 years, the patient was admitted with the same clinical picture. During laparotomy, a tumor recurrence was discovered, the nodes of which were located in the retroperitoneal space, in the abdominal cavity with invasion to organs and large vessels. The case was recognized as inoperable, the laparotomic wound was closed completely. Sixteen days after surgery the patient was discharged
