[Important problems of high quality drinking water supply, and the ways of their solution].

The article covers the results of experimental and natural studies concerning important directions in the field of drinking water supply, including such aspects as: research into and classification of the barrier role of conventional and prospective technologies of water preparation in terms of chemical and biological pollution; revision of the standards of drinking water quality control in accordance with international documents; the main aspects of revision of the general conception of high quality water supply, within which hygienic requirements concerning the quality of prepackaged waters and the ranking of different techniques of water preparation used in water purification units, have been developed for the first time. The authors present the results of experimental studies on the patterns of disinfection, purification, and conditioning of drinking water quality using energetic- and-information technologies of water preparation.

[Sanitary and technological solutions of the elimination of iodine deficiency by iodination of drinking water].

Comprehensive studies of the sanitary standards provided research evidence for the maximum allowable concentrations of iodine in the drinking water by taking into account its daily allowances dose and the formation of transformation by-products due to iodine disinfection, drinking water preservation, and iodine deficiency prevention in the endemic areas. Techniques of water iodination have been devised and tested in the experimental and industrial setting, including those for packaging drinking water, as well as those by using portable water purifiers based on highly effective iodine-selective adsorptive compounds which make it possible to solve the task of administering iodine dosages into the water (with allowances born in mind), under domestic conditions as well.

[Caries and fluorine: role of water factor, problems and solutions].

The epidemiological studies of the severity and spread of caries of deciduous and permanent teeth in Moscow schoolchildren (n = > 20,000) aged 7-17 years in relation to the content of fluoride in the drinking water, to the use of fluorine-containing tablets and varnishes have provided evidence for the high efficiency of drinking water fluorination for the primary prevention of caries as compared with other preventive alternatives. Based on sanitary studies, two main lines are now under way in solving the problem connected with low dietary fluoride intake: the introduction of routine water-purifying fluorine generators (based on a new technology of fluorination of limited water volumes for drinking and cooking) and the setting-up of plants manufacturing bottled drinking waters containing the optimum or higher fluorine levels for provision of different population groups, primarily children and pregnant women in particular.

[Hygienic evaluation of the methods of water conditioning on marine ships].

Results of test stands and of field studies (on marine ships) have shown, that the use of installations for water preparation (IWP), including mineralizers of the wash out type and ozonizers, makes it possible to get water of stable quality independent of the terms of operations of the installations, and also provides the possibility of conditioning of shore water supply and of carrying out disinfection of the ship water supply system. Comparative analysis of the operation of various kinds of IWP on marine ships testifies to the necessity of development of the new types of IWP, which will promote health preservation of crew members having difficult long independent voyages.

[Hygienic evaluation of mineralizing lime substances for correction of mineral composition of low-mineral drinking water].

4 out of 6 mineralizing lime materials that were studied have been recommended for the practical application with the aim to correct the mineral composition of drinking low-mineralized water. The possibility to predict the biological properties of multicomponent mineralizing materials has been established on the basis of results of analysis of their chemical composition.

["Copy-pair" model for calculating the effect of the water factor on the health status of residents in an epidemiological study].

The paper presents the results of testing 4 main models of copy-pair examinations in some cities and towns of the country, which have been recommended for singling out the influence of a water factor on human health in epidemiological surveys. A locality with varying water supply (drinking water quality) in its different parts is shown to be methodologically the best model.

[The laser therapy and laser acupunture of patients with chronic recurrent aphthous stomatitis].

Laser therapy and laser acupuncture of the biologically active sites were administered to 24 patients with chronic recurrent aphthous stomatitis. The biologically active sites were selected individually with due consideration for the underlying somatic condition. Good results were achieved in the patients with the fibrous form of chronic aphthous stomatitis. Secretory and serum immunoglobulin levels were monitored over the course of laser treatment.

[Structural and functional assessment of the body's status after consumption of the waters treated with various technologies].

The use of waters treated by different technologies was studied in animals and volunteers. Rats were used to study the use of the immunomodulated water "Renorm" alone and in combination with ozone-sorption treated Moscow tap water in a dilution of 1:10, that of the bottled water "Grander" (Austria) in combination with ozone-sorption treated Moscow tap water in a dilution of 1: 4 or 1:40; that of the water prepared by the Grander technology through a shower device when, after ozone-sorption purification, Moscow tap water was passed through a Grander shower device at a rate of 1 liter per min or 500 ml per 30 sec; that of the water electrochemically treated by an Izumrud (Emerald) installation. Moscow tap water served as a control for all waters and was Moscow dechlorinated water after ozone-sorption purification, by passing Moscow tap water from a tap into a 3-liter vessel through a household ozone device for 5 min and then passing it through a household coal filter (500 ml). "Troitsa" water also served as a control for Renorm water and as the basis for the water physically treated. The nasal and oral cytological status was followed up in different periods (before and a month after water use and 1, 2, and 6 months following a monthly use) in different groups of volunteers: control and placebo groups, and in the groups of the examinees after using the waters treated by energy-informational technologies (Renorm), and by the Grander technology. Experimental studies have revealed that the consumption of the waters in question not merely fails to cause negative changes in the viscera, but also improves a number of structural and functional indices and, in the volunteers, the use of the waters treated by the energy-informational technologies enhances the protective function of tissue barriers, such as the mucosae of the nose and mouth, by diminishing inflammatory reactions in these organs. Thus, both field and experimental studies have demonstrated that the use of the waters treated by different technologies results in structural and functional improvements.
