Microbiological and Biochemical Indicators for Anthropogenically Polluted Soils of the City Mednogorsk, Russia Covenant Journal of Physical and Life Sciences (CJPL) Vol. 3 No 2. December, 2015. Microbiological and Biochemical Indicators for Anthropogenically Polluted Soils of the City Mednogorsk, Russia Ngun T. Clement*1, Pleshakova, Ye1, Reshetnikov M.V.1 1Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics Laboratory of Geoecology and Ecological Geochemistry Saratov State University, PMB 410012, Saratov, Russia. *[email protected] Abstract: This study is a bio-indicative evaluation of anthropogenically-polluted soils of the city Mednogorsk in orenburg region, Russia. This work evaluated – the total number of heterotrophic microorganisms, the number of iron- and manganese-oxidizing bacteria in the polluted soil samples, the activity of soil enzymes (dehydrogenase, catalase, invertase), and also the magnetic susceptibility of these soils (Kmag) – an index which shows the concentration of iron (Fe) in soil. 10 samples were analysed which showed the highest coefficient of magnetism (Kmag > 3) and also a reduced content in heterotrophic microorganisms compared to the control soil samples with Kmag <1, which indicates the inhibitory effect of heavy metals on soil bacteria. It was discovered that soil samples with extremely high significance of magnetic susceptibility possessed high amount of iron-oxidizing bacteria in their soil microbial community. Also, based on the sensitivity to metallic pollution, the studied enzymes formed a decreasing order: dehydrogenase>invertase>catalase. This study reveals the possible use of these indicators as diagnostic tools for monitoring soils polluted with heavy metals. Key words: Heavy metals, Coefficient of magnetism, iron- and manganese oxidizing bacteria, Heterotrophic microorganisms, Dehydrogenase, Catalase, Invertase. Introduction biomass and productivity of soil As a result of anthropogenic microorganisms, represses the pollution, significant amount of activity of soils enzymes, leads to the different xenobiotics are released proliferation of phyto-pathogenic into the environment among which microorganisms and inhibits the the most dangerous are heavy metals growth of plants [2].

  • Report on the Situation in the Area of Hate Crimes Against Muslims in Russia in 2013-14
    OSCE/ODIHR working session 12 (30.09.14) Report on the Situation in the Area of Hate Crimes against Muslims in Russia in 2013-14 Muslim problem research center in Russia submits an annual report on the hate crimes committed against Muslims in Russia. The report is based on the information collected in the monitoring run by our Center. Content: 1. Summary 2. The crimes against mosques 3. The crimes against Muslims committed by law enforcement officials based on the hate towards Islam and Muslims during investigative actions. 4. The crimes against Muslims 5. Desecration of graves 6. Muslims’ websites attacks. Summary On the whole in 2013 the number of hate crimes committed against Muslims increased. The tendency to further exacerbation of the situation and the rise of the number of such crimes is obvious, which certainly reflects the level of reduction of security for both the Muslims living in Russia and their mosques. It should be noted that the situation in this sphere is often exacerbated with resonant crimes such as mass fights, explosions, that are yet in the early stages of the investigation, that is when the investigation and the court has not yet set the criminals, associated with Islam and Muslims. At the same time the media replicate willingly such news so affecting the public consciousness negatively and contributing to grow in it the feeling of hatred towards Islam and Muslims, which naturally entails the desecration of the mosques, attacks on Muslims from the direction of ordinary citizens and, in some cases of law enforcement agencies. This can be traced on the basis of a small sample made from Russian media.

The Thematic Section shows their tree species composition in two different ways. The legend is placed at the beginning of each set of maps. If you are looking for an area near a town or village Go to the Index on page 153 and find the alphabetical list of settlements by English name. The Cyrillic name is also given along with the map page number and coordinates (latitude and longitude) where it can be found. Capitals of regions and districts (raiony) are listed along with many other settlements, but only in the vicinity of intact forest landscapes. The reader should not expect to see a city like Moscow listed. Villages that are insufficiently known or very small are not listed and appear on the map only as nameless dots. If you are looking for an administrative region Go to the Index on page 185 and find the list of administrative regions. The numbers refer to the map on the inside back cover. Having found the region on this map, the reader will know which index map to use to search further. If you are looking for the big picture Go to the overview map on page 35.

V58. 12 Everyday Life of the Orenburg Cossacks of XIX century as the Factor of Russian Positions Strengthening in Multinational Orenburg Region + Elena Godovova The Orenburg branch of the Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration (Orenburg, Russia) Abstract. The review of the everyday life of the Orenburg Cossacks – the closed and original estate, who played a greater role in the development and the progress of the Orenburg region, is presented in the article. The fact of existence of the Orenburg Cossacks to Russian traditions in the everyday life fastened all Orenburg region to its fidelity and it made its integration into structure of Russian empire durable. Keywords: Cossacks, Orenburg Cossacks, Everyday Life of the Cossacks 1. Introduction The revival of the Cossacks in Russia, taking place presently, has made studying of its history actual. Special interest is given to the everyday life of the Orenburg Cossacks – the closed and original estate, who has played a great role in development and progress of the Orenburg region. The family is a sociocultural unit based on consanguinity or marriage. Members of family are connected by a generality of a life, mutual aid and moral responsibility. The family always played a major part in a life of a society and the state, in education of new generations, maintenance of public stability. By virtue of backwardness of an education system in XIX century the centre of gravity of education and socialization of rising generation in all class groups has laid down on family. 2. Family Relationships of the Orenburg Cossacks Families of the Orenburg Cossacks were great, the head of family usually was the senior person, it does not matter whether it was a man or a woman.

The article is devoted to the study of the current state of the plot of the mythological baita «Sak and Suk», common among the peoples of the Ural-Volga region (Bashkirs, Tatars and Chuvashes). Its origin, roots, this Bait goes back centuries. «Sak-Suk» and in our days remains the most popular and beloved among the people, they remember and execute it. Also, the people began to compose the continuation of the bait, linking it with today's realities. During the academic expeditions by folklorists of the BRAS RIHLL URC RAS, new versions of the Bait are still being recorded. The records of our days clearly show that in poetic form the Bait «Sak-Suk» is more preserved in written folklore, ie. people in the older generation. In most cases, informants tell a baite in prose or they can only remember its first lines or a few stanzas. Among the informants, there are a lot of those who claim that the Baik «Sak- Suk» is a byl. Bait «Sak-Suk» can be heard not only in Bashkortostan, but also in regions where Bashkirs live compactly - Kurgan, Samara, Orenburg, Chelyabinsk, Saratov regions, Perm Krai of the Russian Federation.

Abstract: The ability of a number of microorganisms isolated from highly magnetic soil of the city Mednogorsk to oxidize Fe (II) under conditions of periodic cultivation in a liquid medium was studied. Among the studied microorganisms, two microbial isolates with maximum growth characteristics and iron-oxidizing activity were selected and identified: Bacillus megaterium 69.3 and B. megaterium 69.5. Individual levels of metal resistance of the isolates were determined: maximum tolerated concentration (MTC) for Fe (II) of the isolates B. megaterium 69.3 and B. megaterium 69.5 was 1200 mg L−1, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was 1800 mg L−1. Both microbial isolates actively oxidized Fe (II) by reducing its high concentration in the medium (1.19 g L−1) by 33 and 39% during 14 days of culturing. Total increase in the biomass of B. megaterium 69.3 and B. megaterium 69.5 after 14 days of culturing was 15.3 and 14.7 g L−1; the active parts of the biomass increased 8.7- Citation: Pleshakova, E.; Ngun, C.; and 6.9-fold compared to the inoculum dose, respectively.
