[Nutritional disorders in workers and employees of an industrial enterprise in Tselinograd and the incidence of gastroduodenal diseases].

Questioning of 877 subjects was conducted during prophylactic examination of workers at industrial enterprises in Tselinograd. Endoscopy and intragastral pH-metry were used to investigate the stomach and duodenum. Disorders in nutrition were proved more often in those with the disease diagnosed for the first time. The incidence rate of symptoms of diseases of the digestive organs depended on disorders in nutrition regimen, and was directly proportional to them. It has been shown that screening-questionnaire can be used for the study of nutrition factors in industrial workers during prophylactic examination. Gastroduodenal diseases, i.e. chronic gastritis with hyperacidity, and functional gastric diseases are most frequent.

[Microorganisms destroying a number of nonionogenic surface-active substances].

Microorganisms destroying nonionogenic surfactants (NS) were selected. The isolated cultures were assigned to the genera Pseudomonas and Bacillus. Biodestruction of 19 NS was studied in Erlenmeyer flasks with shaking and in the course of continuous cultivation. The rate of destruction was shown to depend on the chemical structure of a substance: block-copolymers of ethylene and propylene oxides were more resistant to the action of microorganisms. The results indicate that sewage waters containing NS (at an initial concentration of 50 to 500 mg/l) can be purified on local installations using microbial cultures or their complexes.
