Abstract
Natural complex compounds with hipolipidemic activity, having considerable inhibitory effect on expression of bacteria virulence factors were isolated. Inhibitory properties of the compounds with respect to pyocyanine and protease formation, as well as their influence on the quorum sensing mechanism in Chromobacterium violacium were shown.

Abstract
The effect of subbacteriostatic concentrations of ampicillin on morphological and mechanical properties of gramnegative and grampositive cells of Escherichia coli K12 TG1 and Bacillus cereus IP 5832 respectively was studied with atomic force microscopy. Significant heterogeneity of the bacterial populations was shown by the character of the response to the antibiotic effect. The common feature was increase of the cell size likely due to the effect of the inner osmotic pressure on the lowered cell wall strength. In the E.coli population there were besides observed anomalous elongated cells with signs of septation disorder, as well as their structurs, lacking the cytoplasmic liquid fraction. In the B.cereus the inner osmotic pressure mainly enlarged the cell cross section, changing the cell shape from rod to sphere, that was accompanied by significant impairment of the surface structure with liberation of the peptidoglycane fragments to the medium. The particular features of the E.coli K12 TG1 and B.cereus IP 5832 respond to the ampicillin effect were attributed to the differences in the structure of their cell wall, also due to specific properties of the peptidoglycane synthesis and three-dimensional organization.

Abstract
Oral use of Luromarin, extracted from sea algae Zostera asiatica, was efficient In protection of mice from lethal infection induced by highly pathogenic strain of TBE virus, by extending their average lifespan. Luromarin demonstrated potentiating action in combination with ribavirin and cycloferon.

Abstract
Inducible character of resistance to tetracycline, chloramphenicol and ampicillin was investigated in 20 strains of Vibrio cholera non-O1/non-O139 serogroups isolated from inhabitants of Uzbekistan in 1990 (10 strains, ctx+) and in 2001 (5 strains, ctx-) and from inhabitants of Kalmykiya within 2003-2005 (5 strains, ctx-). Eight of the 20 isolates showed not only capacity for induction of the antibiotic resistance, but also its possible self transfer to Escherichia coli and reverse crosses in El Tor V.cholerae P-5879. It was shown that the effect of the antibacterial on the isolates phenotypic susceptibility could increase the resistance markers expression, when the genomes contained sites responsible for their expression, that required constant bacteriological control of the treatment efficacy and the use of the isolates antibioticograms for early replace of the inefficient drug by the efficient one. The prevalence of V.cholerae O1 and non-O1/non-O13 serogroups with multiple resistance to the antibacterial and the genetic potency for the antibiotic resistance development in the pathogen made difficult the choice of efficient drugs for prophylaxis and treatment of diseases caused by V.cholerae.

Abstract
The efficacy of rezonizate, a novel antituberculosis drug, in combination with fluoroquinolones or mycobutin was studied in experiments on mice infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. By the pathomorphological and microbiological criteria, the highest therapeutic effect was observed when rezonizate was used in combination with levofloxacin, the lowest effect was produced by rezonizate combination with gatifloxacin.

Abstract
The effect of reamberin on morphofunctional changes in the small intestine mucous membrane due to stress ulcerogenesis was studied. Normalization of the lipid modifications in the tissue structure, evident of the drug antiulcerous properties, was observed.

Abstract
A method for spectroscopic determination of ceftriaxone in saliva of healthy subjects and patients with upper respiratory tract Infections was developed. The concentration range is 1-50 mcg/ml. The method is express and simple, and can be used to determine ceftriaxone in clinical tests and pharmacokinetic studies. Possible determination of ceftriaxone in aqueous solutions was demonstrated which is useful in analysis of drugs.

Abstract
To determine the clinicopathogenetic efficacy of cycloferon liniment in combined therapy of herpetic stomatitis, 60 patients with herpetic stomatitis and chronic tonsillitis were examined and treated. It was shown that the use of cycloferon liniment in the combined therapy of herpetic stomatitis in the patients with chronic tonsillitis allowed to lower the infection load in the parodontal recesses and the local inflammation, to normalize the immunity indices and to reduce the level of the endogenous intoxication, that provided acceleration of the recuperation processes and decreased the frequency of stomatitis backsets.

Abstract
The efficacy of intraabdominal chemotherapy in management of local recurrences of colon cancer was studied. Intraabdominal intraoperative and early postoperative chemotherapy made it possible to prolong of the recurrenceless term and to improve the life quality of the patients with local recurrences of colon cancer. There was observed a tendency to increase the five-year survival.

Abstract
Foreign experience with empirical management of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) due to coronavirus, genotype IV is described. It is indicated that the data on the efficacy of ribavirin with respect to SARS in the patients are contradictory. The efficacy of two chemotherapeutics, i. e. lopinavir and ritonavir used in the SARS foci is confirmed. The drugs are at present applicable all over the world in retrovirus therapy of HIV infected subjects. The search for efficient Russian unspecific medicines for control of SARS is actual.
