Bioremediation approaches for oil contaminated soils in extremely high-mountainous conditions

Nurzat TOTUBAYEVA | Ciyde TOKPAEVA | Canarbek İZAKOV | Mirlan MOLDOBAYEV

Development of methods for bioremediation of soils contaminated with petroleum products is one of the most urgent tasks of our time. This task is more difficult to perform in high-mountainous landscapes, at an altitude of more than 4 000 m a.s.l. Moreover, these high-mountain ecosystems are the most vulnerable to various kinds of anthropogenic impacts, and therefore the relevance of bioremediation is obvious. The research was conducted in the high-altitude ecosystems of the Kyrgyz Republic at the Kumtor mine. In this study was carried out on the bioremediation of oil contaminated soil using bi ...More

Nurzat TOTUBAYEVA

In the contemporary era, with rapid industrial growth and urbanisation, analysing the impact of human activities on soil enzyme activity becomes crucial. The purpose of this study is to assess the influence of anthropogenic pollution on enzyme activity in soil. Research on enzyme activity levels in the soil in the city of Kara-Balta, Chuy Region, Kyrgyz Republic, was conducted using biochemical analyses and specific enzymatic tests. The results revealed significant diversity in catalase activity in different soil samples. Some samples exhibited high activity, while others showed low activity. ...More

Применение флуоресцентной спектроскопии для оценки качества термически обработанного молока = Application of fluorescent spectroscopy to estimation of quality of heat-treated milk

Asılbek KULMIRZAYEV

Продемонстрирована возможность применения флуоресцентной спектроскопии для получения информации о физико-химических свойствах и качестве термически обработанного молока посредством одновременного определения содержания фурозина и лактулозы. Сравнение полученных результатов с результатами стандартных методов показало высокую корелляцию между ними. Таким образом, доказано, что флуоресцентная спектроскопия - относительно дешевый, быстрый и неразрушающий метод, может заменить аналитические методы, применяемые в настоящее время для оценки качества молочных продуктов. It was shown that fluorescence ...More
