LEADING ATOPIC PATHOLOGIES IN CHILDREN ON THE TERRITORY OF MYKOLAIV REGION

The article is devoted to allergic diseases among children of the Nikolaev area, first of all bronchial asthma of an atopic form.  The dynamics of the prevalence of allergic diseases is analyzed, the most rational methods of diagnosis and treatment of allergopathology are determined.  Data on hospitalization in the allergy department, the structure of diagnoses that are most often clinically established in children with allergy pathology are presented.  The materials will be of interest to allergists, pulmonologists, immunologists, family doctors and pediatricians.Key words: allergy, bronchial asthma, allergic diseases, atopy, allergology, pediatrics

Plastically deformed ultramafites of the Ergaksky chromite-bearing massif (Western Sayan)

Dunites and harzburgites of Ergaksky massif constantly show signs of plastic deformation of olivine and enstatite as inhomogeneous extinction, bands of plastic fracture and sintectonic recrystallization. At level of the upper mantle dunites and harzburgites have undergone plastic deformation by translational sliding in olivine at high temperature and low speed. As a result, ultramafic with medium-grained, meso-granular texture formed. In the process of movement in the Earth's crust plastic deformation occurs mostly as sintectonic recrystallization at subordinate role of translational sliding in conditions of decreasing temperatures and growing speed of plastic flow. This has contributed to the formation of porphyroclastic textures, while translational sliding promoted the distortion of crystal structure and the emergence of non-homogeneous extinction and bands of plastic fracture. Olivinites appeared as a result of secondary recrystallization of annealing under influence of high-temperature fluids on ultramafites

Processing of vanadium and niobium electrodeposited from alkali chloride melts

The methods of hydrometallurgical treatment of cathodic deposits obtained by electrorefining vanadium and niobium metals in chloride melts were studied. The effectiveness of employing nitric acid was demonstrated. The optimal conditions of leaching trapped salt were determined: HNO3 concentration of 2.5 wt. % for vanadium and 5 wt. % for niobium; solid-to-liquid ratio 1:10 for both metals. The effect of increasing duration of a washing cycle on number of process stages was investigated. The methods of final washing and drying metallic powders were considered. ©The Electrochemical Society.Physical and Analytical Electrochemistry;Electrodeposition;Energy Technolog

Estimating gold-ore mineralization potential within Topolninsk ore field (Gorny Altai)

Based on the results of ore and near-ore metasomatite composition analysis, the factors and indicators of gold-ore mineralization potential were proposed. Integration of the obtained data made it possible to outline magmatic, structural, and lithological factors, as well as direct and indirect indicators of gold-ore mineralization. Applying multidimensional analysis inherent to geochemical data, the spatial structure was investigated, as well as the potential mineralization was identified. Based on the developed and newly-identified mineralization, small (up to medium-sized) mineable gold-ore deposits in skarns characterized by complex geological setting was identified

Application of multivariate statistical analysis for delineation of prospective geochemical anomalies in Providenskaya Area (Chukotka, Russia)

The secondary geochemical field structure was modelled on the basis of the lithogeochemical dispersion trains of the Providenskaya Area of the Chukotka Peninsula. The factor and cluster analysis were applied to interpret the nature of geochemical anomalies. It was proved that a range of anomalies were prospective for gold-silver, polymetallic, tin, and tungsten deposit allocation

Study of causes of film formation on the electrolyte surface during niobium electrorefining

Formation of a conducting film on the surface of fused electrolyte during electrorefining of niobium in chloride melts was investigated. It was found that this film has metallic nature and is formed as a result of disproportionation of niobium(III) ions at a liquid-gas interface. Decreasing temperature gradient along the heated part of the electrolyser can be used to limit the influence of the disproportionation onto film formation. The metal film formation on solid ceramics can be used for creation of conducting layers on various oxide materials. copyright The Electrochemical Society.Electrochemical Society, Phys. Anal.
