Possibilities assessment of the film cluster in the Kaliningrad Oblast functioning
The purpose of the study is to assess the problems and prospects of a film cluster in the Kaliningrad Oblast of the Russian Federation. The following scientific research methods are used: analysis of scientific publications (articles), collection of primary information (conferences, round tables, foresight sessions, expert interviews), analysis of the regulatory framework. Empirical research methods are also involved: measuring quantitative data, conducting a survey and comparative analysis. The article substantiates the reasons why the Kaliningrad Oblast has been and remains an attractive region for film-makers. The analysis of available opportunities in the field of film production, film education, cast and other things is carried out. All aspects of the film industry are considered, including film festivals, film pitching and more. The work of the film commission is analyzed, in particular the rebate system introduced in 2017. The effectiveness of this system is evaluated in the light of the changes that occurred in it in 2020
Cluster approach in the film industry
The article consider the concepts of cluster and cultural cluster. The specifics of the cluster approach in film production are studied. The basic principles according to which film clusters exist are highlighted. The relationship between the state, companies that are directly involved in production, and companies that have direct and indirect influence at all stages of the creation of an audiovisual product. The work of regional film commissions, which are a guide between the state and film producers within the fixed territory, is considered. The models of regional cinema development in Russia are analysed. The analysis of the prerequisites for the creation of film clusters in the Russian regions is carried out. The key current problems in the regional cinema are identified. The main steps that regions need to take when developing a strategy for the comprehensive long-term development of regional film production are presented
Characterization of Bacillus strains of marine origin
A total of twenty aerobic endospore-forming bacilli, isolated from marine invertebrates and sea water of different areas of the Pacific Ocean, were taxonomically characterized. Most of the bacilli (11 strains) of marine origin belonged to the species Bacillus subtilis, according to their phenotypic characteristics, antibiotic susceptibility profiles, and fatty acids patterns. A group of four alkaliphilic strains formed a separate cluster that was tentatively classified as B. horti. One isolate, KMM 1717, associated with a sponge from the Coral Sea was identified as B. pumilus. Two strains, Bacillus KMM 1916 and KMM 1918, showed antibiotic sensitivity profiles similar to B. licheniformis, but they had a distinct fatty acid composition and peculiar phenotypic traits. The taxonomic affiliation of KMM 1810 and KMM 1763 remained unclear since their fatty acid composition and antibiotic sensitivity patterns were not resembled with none of these obtained for Bacillus strains
Eukaryotic RNases H1 act processively by interactions through the duplex RNA-binding domain
Ribonucleases H have mostly been implicated in eliminating short RNA primers used for initiation of lagging strand DNA synthesis. Escherichia coli RNase HI cleaves these RNA–DNA hybrids in a distributive manner. We report here that eukaryotic RNases H1 have evolved to be processive enzymes by attaching a duplex RNA-binding domain to the RNase H region. Highly conserved amino acids of the duplex RNA-binding domain are required for processivity and nucleic acid binding, which leads to dimerization of the protein. The need for a processive enzyme underscores the importance in eukaryotic cells of processing long hybrids, most of which remain to be identified. However, long RNA–DNA hybrids formed during immunoglobulin class-switch recombination are potential targets for RNase H1 in the nucleus. In mitochondria, where RNase H1 is essential for DNA formation during embryogenesis, long hybrids may be involved in DNA replication
Optimization of structural dimensions technological plant for the recycling of oily waste and scale
The increasing accumulation of industrial waste, and rising energy and charge materials, stricter environmental regulations lead to the necessity of finding economical and efficient methods and equipment for processing and return to production of scrap. In this paper, a technological plant for the processing of oily waste and scale is presented. The basis of the implemented method of de-oiling technology is based on the sublimation of the oil by direct heating of the scale flue gases, which ensures the stability and high productivity of the process.Возрастающее накопление техногенных отходов, удорожание энергоресурсов и шихтовых материалов, ужесточение природоохранных нормативов приводят к необходимости поиска экономичных и эффективных способов и оборудования для переработки и возврата в производство металлоотходов. В данной работе представлена установка для переработки маслосодержащих отходов и окалины. В основу реализуемого способа обезмасливания положена технология возгонки масла за счет непосредственного нагрева окалины дымовыми газами, что обеспечивает устойчивость и высокую производительность процесса
Gelation of rhamnogalacturonan I is based on galactan side chain interaction and does not involve chemical modifications
© 2017 Elsevier LtdThe article presents the structural principles of microwave-induced formation of new gel type from pectic rhamnogalacturonan I (RG-I). The backbone of gel-forming RG-I does not contain consecutive galacturonic residues and modifying groups that can be the cause of junction zone formation as it occurs in course of classical ways of pectin gelation. Microwave irradiation does not cause destruction and chemical modifications of RG-I. Removal of half of galactan chains from RG-I leads to loss of gelling capability pointing out on their leading role in this process. Rising of intensity of the bands attributed to galactose and glycosidic linkages in RG-I gel comparing to solution where this polymer exists as molecule associate indicates that the spatial organization of galactans in gel is changed. A model of the RG-I gelation is proposed: being destabilized at volumetric microwave heating RG-I associates are repacked forming network where RG-I molecules are entangled by galactan chains
Сорбционно-структурные свойства аэрогельных материалов на основе биополимеров
В настоящее время для выведения избыточного количества тяжелых металлов и токсинов из живых организмов успешно применяются аэрогельные материалы в качестве энтеро- и апликационных сорбентов. Неисчерпаемой сырьевой базой для создания аэрогельных материалов являются природные биополимеры альгинат и хитозан, а также различные производные лигнина. На их основе разработано значительное количество сорбционных материалов и раневых покрытий различных типов, что связано не только с широким спектром физико-химических свойств названных полимеров и их уже доказанной медико-биологической активностью, но и с распространенностью и возобновляемостью сырьевых источников для производства данных полимеров, простотой извлечения, возможностью достижения высокой степени очистки и сравнительно невысокой ценой. Ключевой стадией синтеза аэрогельных материалов является формирование прочного гидрогеля – каркаса. Один из технологических приемов – получение интерполиэлектролитного армирующего гидрогеля. В работе предложены 2 упаковочные модели формирования структуры интерполиэлектролитных комплексов на основе пар биополимеров: «альгинат натрия – хитозан» и «лигносульфонат натрия – хитозан». Первая модель – блочная, при которой структура формируется за счет ионных связей между карбоксильными группами альгината натрия и аминогруппами хитозана, а также кооперативной системы водородных связей и дисперсионных взаимодействий. Вторая модель – агрегационно-трубчатая, структура которой образуется посредством ионных связей между сульфогруппами (в составе палочкообразных надмолекулярных структур лигносульфоната натрия) и аминогруппами хитозана, а также водородных связей и дисперсионных взаимодействий. При высушивании интерполиэлектролитных комплексов в сверхкритических условиях формируются прочные фазовые контакты, при этом изменения в структуре геля становятся необратимыми. В результате получены гидрофобные микро- и мезопористые 2-компонентные аэрогельные материалы, различающиеся внутренней структурой. Аэрогельные материалы, структура которых образована по 1-й из названных моделей, характеризуются фибриллярной структурой, а по 2-й ‒ структурными элементами сферической формы. Полученные аэрогельные материалы обладают высокой сорбционной активностью по отношению к воде и широкому кругу тяжелых металлов и низкомолекулярных токсинов. Цель работы – исследование структурно-сорбционных свойств аэрогельных материалов, основа которых – биополимеры различной структурной организации. Значительное увеличение сорбционной активности аэрогельных материалов «альгинат натрия – хитозан» в сравнении с «лигносульфонат натрия – хитозан» связано, по-видимому, с их различной надмолекулярной структурой. Действует совокупность механизмов сорбции: намокание, всасывание, диффузия, осмотические явления и химическое взаимодействие, обусловленное высокопористой структурой аэрогельных материалов и наличием сорбционно-активных центров.

Composición en ácidos grasos de los lípidos del polen de palmeras Cycas revoluta
The fatty acid (FA) composition of total extractable and non extractable with chloroform lipids of C. revoluta pollen was determined. Among other minor FAs, unusual Δ5 polymethylene-interrupted FA, Δ5, 11-octadecadienoic acid was found. This FA was found in the seed lipids of C. revoluta earlier, but it was discovered for the first time in pollen lipids.Se determinó la composición en ácidos grasos (AG) de los lípidos totales extraíbles y no extraíbles con cloroformo del polen de la palmera C. revoluta. Entre otros ácidos grasos menores se encontró un AG Δ5 inusual, el ácido octadecadienoico, Δ5,11-polimetilen-interrumpido. Este AG ya fue descrito en los lípidos de semillas de C. revoluta, pero en los lípidos del polen es la primera vez que se describen
Reduced functionality of soil food webs in burnt boreal forests: a case study in Central Russia
© 2017, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd. Abstract: Functionality of soil food webs after forest fires remains generally unexplored. We address this question by studying both burnt and unburnt spruce forests in Central European Russia (Tver Region). In August 2014 we sampled two spatially distant blocks consisting of forest areas burnt in 2010 and the respective unburnt controls. We analyzed biomass and structure of soil food webs as well as carbon mobilization with respect to carbon stocks in the dead wood, litter and soil after burning. The biomass of soil fauna was moderately reduced in the burnt plots. For some groups like testate amoebae and enchytraeids, however, this decrease was highly significant and corresponded with the decreased C-stock in litter. For the other taxa changes in biomass were insignificant. At the same time C-flow through the soil food web after fire was strongly reduced mainly due to the reduction of biomass of active fungi and secondary decomposers. The overall consumption rate of detritus by the soil food web strongly decreased in the burnt forests and was maintained predominantly by the decomposition activity of bacteria instead of fungi. This resulted in the reduction of the total soil food web functionality related with C-mobilization in the forests four years after a fire event. Brief Summary: We compared rates of carbon mobilization by soil food webs in burnt and unburnt boreal forests in Central Russia. Despite of only slight decrease in soil animal biomass, consumption rate of carbon in the soil food webs after fire was considerably lower and mainly associated with soil bacteria instead of fungi
