Determination of Total Antioxidant Content in Various Drinks by Amperometry

In the present work the total content of phenolic antioxidants in juice of some fruit and vegetables, in wines, water extracts of tea and herb were measured by amperometry. Efficiency of the method allowed determining the total antioxidant content in their binary and multimixes, including processes of frosting-defrosting and juice diluting as well. The deviation of experimentally received values of the total antioxidant content in some drink mixes from the values calculated proceeding from the additivity principle of the antioxidant content in separate drinks has been revealed

Digital Technologies in Youth Career Guidance Management for Professions of the Agricultural and Industrial Complex of the Sverdlovsk Region

The research is aimed at finding ways to effectively integrate traditional career guidance approaches and the capabilities of digital platforms working in the field of youth policy management in the Sverdlovsk region. The ways of intersection of interests of universities and youth policy management bodies in the emerging unified Internet space are outlined. The analysis of digital transformation process in the field of career guidance is carried out. The possibilities of the main federal information platforms in the field of youth work and their effectiveness in terms of indicators are presented: the number of events, the coverage of participants and, what is important for us- the project activities of young people with a career-oriented component. The article provides examples of social projects that already have a digital footprint and a sufficiently large involvement of schoolchildren and students of the Sverdlovsk region. The educational component containing elements of career guidance, which can be further strengthened, is of particular interest. The ways of creating a territorial multilevel digital model of youth career guidance of the Sverdlovsk region are outlined. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.A major social project involving schoolchildren was carried out by the Ural SAU in partnership with the Sverdlovsk regional branch of the All-Russian Public Youth Organization "All-Russian Student Rescue Corps", with the support of the Autonomous Non-profit Organization "Resource Center for the Support of Volunteering in the Field of Safety Culture and Disaster Response Sverdlovsk region", and the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia in the Sverdlovsk region. The form of career guidance work through the joint participation of schoolchildren and students in such projects shows the social significance of joint actions, creates a community of like-minded people and helps to attract schoolchildren to the university

THE ROLE OF FAMILY AND EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION IN HEALTH PROMOTION AND FORMATION OF CHILDREN’S LIFESTYLE

Human health potential and regular lifestyle are the things that are fostered during childhood. Family and educational ambience make a significant contribution into the general state of wealth and welfare of our children, the ambience is considered as the main resource of the health and healthy lifestyle creation. A survey was conducted; the goal of the survey was to study the incidence of behavioral risk factors and the role of domestic and school factors in forming of the general education school students' lifestyle. Group of interest: 57 general education schools, 5960 7-11® grade pupils, 912 parents and 240 teachers from Yekaterinburg. Amongst the students the high incidence of behavioral risk factors takes place: disturbed daily regimen (16,6-40,4 % considering certain aspects), low physical activity (70,1 %), alcohol (43,4 %) and tobacco (21,5 %) consumption, insufficient preventive activity. With equally high level of self-assessment of the hygienic knowledge amongst the students of a different age, a lower lifestyle self-assessment and a higher risk factors frequency in regard to the 11th grade pupils' lifestyle were registered. Teenage familiarization with the alcohol and tobacco is associated with a complex of factors characterizing students' personality traits, their school and home life organization. These factors are: low school progress; low motivationfor studying, social life and artistic activity; early labor activity; alcohol and tobacco-friendly family; lack of trust relationship, organization of child's life and behavioral and leisure activities control inside the family. More than half of the schools have certain defects in their health-improving activities, which are often connected with the insufficient level of preventive care-related education of teachers, poor physical training organization of students, lacking clear health promotion assistance policy for students at school, lacking external relations in the area of preventive care. The incidence of behavioral risk factors is associated with such school activity parts as teachers' preventive activity, interaction between school and parents, availability of a school health education system

Stimulating of entrepreneurs’ innovative activity in the Republic of Bashkortostan

The article views some aspects of promoting innovative activity in the Republic of Bashkortostan. The measures stimulating innovative activity have been grouped into blocks.1. Creating favorable conditions for innovative activity. 2. Increasing the population’s innovative activity. 3. Development of the system of scientific and production cooperation and innovation commercialization. 4. Investment support of innovative projects. 5. Development of innovative infrastructure. 6. Development of innovative small businesses. 7. Information provision of innovative activity. The main directions of implementing the above-mentioned conditions are: - lawmaking activity in the Republic, taking into consideration the federal legislation, international standards and traditions; - financial and tax inducement of scientific-technical and innovative activity; - international technological integration; - private-state partnership in the sphere of innovative activity. Recommendations are suggested, relating to the innovative policy activation for more efficient fulfillment of the key functions of the Republic’s scientific and research sector. The authors conclude that the Republic has all necessary preconditions for small entrepreneurship functioning: the natural conditions favorable for many kinds of economic activity, the forming local market infrastructure for small business servicing, and the availability of large enterprises and centers of economic activity.Keywords: entrepreneur, entrepreneurship, innovation, innovative activity, region, infrastructure, investments, stimulation, monitoring

Current achievements in modifying crop genes using CRISPR/Cas system

With the advent of the new genome editing tool of target-specifically customizable endonucleases, a huge variety of novel opportunities have become feasible. The crop improvement is one of the main applications of genome editing in plant science and plant biotechnology. The amount of publications referring to genome editing and CRISPR/Cas system based molecular tools application in crops is permanently growing. The aim of this study is the systematization and cataloging of these data. Earlier we published the first catalog of targeted crop genome modifications as of February 10, 2017. The current review is an update of the catalog; it covers research papers on crop genome modifications from February 10, 2017 to August 17, 2018, found by searching 47 crop names in the Scopus database. Over one year and a half, 377 articles mentioning CRISPR/Cas and crop names have been published, of which 131 articles describe an experimental application of this tool for editing 193 genes in 19 crops, including rice with the largest number of genes modified (109 genes). Editing 50 of 193 genes was aimed at crop improvement. The catalog presented here includes these 50 genes, specifying the cultivars, each gene and gene product function, modification type and delivery method used. The current full list of genes modified with CRISPR/Cas with the aim of crop improvement is 81 in 16 crops (for 5 years from August 2013 to August 2018). In this paper, we also summarize data on different modifications types in different crops and provide a brief review of some novel methods and approaches that have appeared in crop genome editing research over the reviewed period. Taken together, these data provide a clear view on current progress in crop genome modifications and traits improvement using CRISPR/Cas based genome editing technology
