PREBIOTIC CORRECTION IN BACTERIAL VAGINOSIS
Increased interest to the vaginal microecosystems is largely due to the fact that the role of evolutionary formed microbial populations in this habitat lies not only in the maintenance of vaginal colonization resistance, but also in formation of microecological health of newborns, and consequently, the human population in general.The formation of the qualitative and quantitative composition of microflora is regulated by a complex mechanism of microbial interactions inside each of microecosystems and is controlled by physiological factors of the host organism in the dynamics of his life

New Titanium(IV)-Alkoxide Complexes Bearing Bidentate OO Ligand with the Camphyl Linker as Catalysts for High-Temperature Ethylene Polymerization and Ethylene/1-Octene Copolymerization
In order to increase the thermal stability of olefin polymerization precatalysts, new titanium(IV) complexes with diolate ligands differing in the degree of steric hindrances were synthesized from readily available precursor (±)camphor. The structures of the complexes 1–2 were established by X-ray diffraction. Complexes 1–4 in the presence of an activator {EtnAlCl3-n + Bu2Mg} catalyzed the synthesis of UHMWPE with an Mv up to 10 million and a productivity of up to 3300 kg/molTi·atm·h. The obtained polymers are obviously characterized by a low density of macromolecular entanglement, which makes it possible to use the solid-phase method for their processing. The mechanical characteristics of the oriented UHMWPE films had a breaking strength up to 2.7 GPa and an elastic modulus of up to 151 GPa. The precatalysts 1–4 were also active in ethylene/1-octene copolymerization. The comonomer content was in the range of 1.4–4.6 mol%. The use of a rigid linker and an increase in the steric load of the diolate complexes ensured the thermal stability of the catalytic system in the range of 50–70 °C

A Novel ZieglerâNatta-Type Catalytic SystemâTiCl<sub>4</sub>/2,2â˛-Dimethoxy-1,1â˛-Binaphthalene/Et<sub>3</sub>Al<sub>2</sub>Cl<sub>3</sub>/Bu<sub>2</sub>Mg for Production of Ultrahigh Molecular Weight Polyethylene Nascent Reactor Powders, Suitable for Solvent-Free Processing
A series of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylenes with viscosity-average molecular weights in the range of 1.6⁻5.6 × 106 have been prepared by using a novel Ziegler⁻Natta-type catalytic system—TiCl4/2,2′-dimethoxy-1,1′-binaphthalene/Et3Al2Cl3/Bu2Mg at different temperatures (Tpoly) in the range between 10 and 70 °C in toluene. The morphology of the nascent reactor powders has been studied by scanning electron microscopy, wide-angle X-ray diffraction, and the DSC melting behavior. Polymers are suitable for the modern processing methods—the solvent-free solid-state formation of super high-strength (tensile strength over 1.8⁻2.5 GPa) and high-modulus (elastic modulus up to 136 GPa) oriented film tapes. With decrease of Tpoly, the drawability of the reactor powders increased significantly
Titanium(III, IV)-Containing Catalytic Systems for Production of Ultrahigh Molecular Weight Polyethylene Nascent Reactor Powders, Suitable for Solventless ProcessingâImpact of Oxidation States of Transition Metal
Catalytic systems containing TiCl4 or TiCl3, THF, organomagnesium (n-Bu2Mg) and organoaluminum compounds capable of producing ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) were developed. The resulting polymers were characterized by a molecular weight in the range of (1.8â7.8) Ă 106 Da and desirable morphology, suitable for modern methods of polymer processingâthe solvent-free solid-state processing of superhigh-strength (tensile strength up to 2.1 GPa) and high-modulus (elastic modulus up to 125 GPa) oriented films and film tapes. The impacts of a THF additive, the oxidation state of the titanium atom, and the composition and nature of the nontransition organometallic compounds on the formation of catalytic systems for UHMWPE production were evaluated. The results indicate the suitability of individual titanium chloride tetrahydrofuran complex application for the formation of THF-containing catalytic systems. This approach also results in a significant increase in the system catalytic activity and mechanical properties of UHMWPE. The catalysts based on Ti(III) were inferior to systems containing Ti(IV) in productivity but were markedly superior in the mechanical properties of UHMWPE
