The results of complex social and ecologic study in the city of Ufa

The authors present results of social and ecologic study carried out in Ufa. The results describe the course of ecologically important processes and phenomena in correlation with the public subjective understanding. Public health is influenced by hygienic parameters of food and water quality as well as a complex of social, economic and psychologic factors. Weak correlation between those parameters and ambient air pollution necessitates more accurate approach to ecologic mapping of cities and to manipulation with data on lower atmosphere pollution with chemical hazards.     

The effect of the long-term alcoholization of rats on partial kidney functions under increasing hypo- and hyperosmolarity

After prolonged alcoholisation of rats the water loads paradoxically induced a lesser water and univalent cations excretion as compared with the control. The same animals excreted less water and sodium and more potassium after the salt loads.
