Symptomatic plants in main crop-producing areas were tested by ELISA （enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay） using specific monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies. Then RCA （rolling circle amplification） of circular DNA and PCR using different specific primer pairs have indicated that the tested symptomatic plant samples were completely infected by the following viruses： Luteovirus [BLRV （Bean leaf roll virus）], Potyviruses [BCMV （Bean common mosaic virus）, BYMV （Bean yellow mosaic virus）], Bromovirus [（AMV） Alfa-alfa mosaic virus], Geminiviruses [CpCDV （ Cickpea chlorotic dwarf virus） and TYLCV （Tomato yellow leaf curl virus）] and Nanoviruses [two different FBNYV （Faba bean necrotic yellow virus） and FBNSV （Faba bean necrotic stunt virus）]. At the same time generation sites of superoxide and hydrogen peroxide radicals and activity of antioxidant enzymes were studied in the naturally infected plants.展开更多

The peptide content was determined by TCA-biuret method, and amino acid was determined by Ninhydrin. The antioxidative activity of the hydrolysates was investigated by measuring the reducing ability, the inhibition of lipoxygenase activity, and antioxidative ability in linoleic acid oxidation system. The hydrolysates exhibited high antioxidative activity. In addition, the hydrolysates scavenged 58.38% on hydroxyl radical and 46.88% on superoxide radical.展开更多

Therapeutic and prophylactic efficacy of individual bioflavonoids as well as herbal medicines with bioflavonoids, was examined at an experimental pathology （toxic hepatitis, dental caries, periodontitis, stomatitis, dysbiosis, diabetes Types 1 and 2, gastric ulcer, osteopenia） in Wistar line rats. Condition of organs and tissues was assessed by biochemical markers of inflammation, antioxidant and antimicrobial defense systems of animals. Research has shown the ability ofbioflavonoids in varying degrees inhibit the formation of superoxide anion radicals and malondialdehyde, recover free radicals, bind ions of Fe2＋, inhibiting the activity of proteases, such as leukocyte elastase. Established partially competitive type of trypsin and elastase activity inhibition by bioflavonoids. Was revealed a positive effect of bioflavonoids in experimental pathology on animals. Therapeutic and prophylactic effects of bioflavonoids, in our opinion, are realized through a strong antioxidant and antiprotease properties of these compounds.展开更多
