  • Information for Persons Who Wish to Seek Asylum in the Russian Federation
    INFORMATION FOR PERSONS WHO WISH TO SEEK ASYLUM IN THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION “Everyone has the right to seek and to enjoy in the other countries asylum from persecution”. Article 14 Universal Declaration of Human Rights I. Who is a refugee? According to Article 1 of the Federal Law “On Refugees”, a refugee is: “a person who, owing to well‑founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of particular social group or politi‑ cal opinion, is outside the country of his nationality and is unable or, owing to such fear, is unwilling to avail himself of the protection of that country”. If you consider yourself a refugee, you should apply for Refugee Status in the Russian Federation and obtain protection from the state. If you consider that you may not meet the refugee definition or you have already been rejected for refugee status, but, nevertheless you can not re‑ turn to your country of origin for humanitarian reasons, you have the right to submit an application for Temporary Asylum status, in accordance to the Article 12 of the Federal Law “On refugees”. Humanitarian reasons may con‑ stitute the following: being subjected to tortures, arbitrary deprivation of life and freedom, and access to emergency medical assistance in case of danger‑ ous disease / illness. II. Who is responsible for determining Refugee status? The responsibility for determining refugee status and providing le‑ gal protection as well as protection against forced return to the country of origin lies with the host state. Refugee status determination in the Russian Federation is conducted by the Federal Migration Service (FMS of Russia) through its territorial branches.

MlCHIGAN STATE UNIVERSlTY MARY MARGARET LYERLY 1976 ' alumna av ‘ In“ ‘& SIINS' 800K BlIIIIEIIY INC. gnunmyy. LIIMRY BINDERS lie-lug ABSTRACT I VITRO LYMPHOREACTIVITY AS ASSESSED BY 3H-URIDINE INCORPORATION By Mary Margaret Lyerly A new method for the analysis of in vitro murine lymphocyte immunoreactivity utilizing 3H-uridine incorporation into RNA was developed. This microculture technique quantifies the responsiveness of a cell population earlier and at a different stage of the cell cycle than does the more widely used measurement of 3H-thymidine in- corporation into DNA. The variables of cell density, doses of mito- gens, and 3H-uridine dose were first investigated to establish optimal culture conditions. Subsequent studies on the time progression of the response indicated that immunoreactivity could be measured by 3H- uridine incorporation as early as 4 hours. At that time, cultures stimulated with mitogens showed about an 80% increase in 3H-uridine labeling over unstimulated ones. By 8 hours, this mitogen-induced increase of 3H-uridine incorporation had reached over 300% of control values. Through the use of Actinomycin-D and sodium dodecyl sulfate, it was determined that the increased labeling of stimulated cultures was due to incorporation of 3H-uridine into newly synthesized RNA. To explore the usefulness and validity of this technique, three separate approaches were used. First the requirement for serum in the culture medium was tested. The finding that serum was not Mary Margaret Lyerly necessary means that immunoreactivity may be assessed in a chemically defined medium.
