[Lacrimal glands of dogs and cattle in the light of histologic and histochemical findings].

The secretion of the lacrimal glands and the glands of the third eyelid of dogs and cattle contain neutral polysaccharides, sialic acids, chondroitin sulfate acids A,B and C. In dogs the secretory cycle including the phase of hydratation occurs inside acinuses in the cattle the phase of hydratation takes place in excretory ducts. The stroma of the eye orbit glands contains a great amount of active plasmocytes providing the secretion with immunological activity.

[Skeletal mineralization in cattle in 1960 and 1990 based on trephine biopsy data].

Skeleton of cows living in the zone of Kiev Polesye (Woodlands), a comparatively safe area of radioactive pollution, as compared with 1960, was found to have practically the same content of calcium, phosphorus, sodium, copper; the content of potassium decreased, that of zinc was greater; the increased content of magnesium, manganese, strontium and lead was statistically valid. An increased incorporation of magnesium, zinc and manganese and a decreased fixation of iron and potassium were mainly due to changed conditions of feeding and maintenance of the animals, while the increased content of strontium and lead was a result of the increased pollution of the environment.

[Antigenemia in people infected with tick-borne encephalitis virus].

An original modified method of tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) diagnosis was used to examine 1196 subjects. It is shown that tick bites frequently lead to TBE virus infection in all the age groups (24.9 +/- 1.3%). Antigenemia in febrile TBE form occurred in 45.8 +/- 6.0%, in severe form in 19.3 +/- 4.2% of cases. Children with the highest viremia and antigenemia are considered as an indicator system of TBE virus infection rate in the population in different seasons. Population of TBE virus consists of 2 parts. The prevalent part is inapparent and does not induce manifest infection. The other part of the virus population with similar seasonal activity gives rise to severe clinical forms of TBE with lethal outcomes.
