Abstract:
The purpose of the study is to investigate the clinical features of recurrent vulvovaginitis in prepubertal age girls with extragenital diseases. We examined 110 girls with recurrent vulvovaginitis, which were registered with the dispensary of pediatric gynecologist. We divided them into three groups depending on extragenital pathology: I group 38 patients with chronic urinary tract diseases; II 36 girls with allergic diseases; III 36 girls with gastrointestinal pathology, enterobiasis. Girls with chronic diseases of the urinary system complain of the pain and discomfort during urination, malaise in the genital area, discharge from the genital tract. Girls with allergic pathology complain of itching and burning in the genital area, restless behavior, dysuric phenomena. Girls with diseases of the gastrointestinal tract and enterobiasis complain of discomfort in the genital region, discharge from the genital tract because of constipation and bloating. The results of examination of the external genitalia, vulvoscopy also differed in girls. They depended on the acuty of the inflammatory process and predisposing factor. The clinical features of recurrent vulvovaginitis in prepubertal age girls with extragenital pathology were determined by the data of objective and instrumental examination of vulva.

Abstract:
Skin wound repair has been the central focus of clinicians and scientists for almost a century. Insights into acute and chronic wound healing as well as scarring have influenced and ameliorated wound treatment. Our knowledge of normal skin notwithstanding, little is known of acute and chronic wound repair of genital skin. In contrast to extra-genital skin, hypertrophic scarring is uncommon in genital tissue. Chronic wound healing disorders of the genitals are mostly confined to mucosal tissue diseases. This article will provide insights into the differences between extra-genital and genital skin with regard to anatomy, physiology and aberrant wound repair. In light of fundamental differences between genital and normal skin, it is recommended that reconstructive and esthetic surgery should exclusively be performed by specialists with profound expertise in genital wound repair.

Abstract:
Chronic pelvic pain is one of the most significant medical and social problems. The high prevalence of concomitant benign genital diseases in women of reproductive age are genial endometriosis, uterine fibroids, endometrial hyperplasia with common clinical manifestations, namely chronic pelvic pain, abnormal uterine bleeding, impaired reproductive function, and a high frequency of cancer pathology of the reproductive organs in young age that require a holistic approach to patient management and comprehensive problem solving. The objective: to investigate the proliferative and inflammatory activity of the glandular and stromal components of the eutopic endometrium (EE), the presence of nerve fibers in it as mechanisms for the formation of СРР in genital endometriosis in combination with other benign hormonedependent diseases of the genitals Materials and methods. The study involved 85 women with chronic pelvic pain due to genial endometriosis, uterine leiomyoma, endometrial hyperplasia, chronic salpingitis and oophoritis in various combinations, and 35 women by the comparison group with similar gynecological pathology without CPP. In order to objectify pain syndrome, a 10-point visual analogue scale (VAS) was used. Echography of the pelvic organs, the thyroid gland (if necessary) was performed by the Toshiba, Nemio17-pro apparatus. In order to study the molecular mechanisms of the development of CPP, the expression of ER, PGR, KI-67, VEGF, COX-2, NF in the eutopic endometrium was determined by immunohistochemistry. Results. The leading painful role in combined gynecological pathology was assigned to diseases in clinical group 1, which had the most pronounced algogenic anatomical and structural features. Formation of CРР is confirmed by the presence of rank correlations between the level of pain syndrome in VAS and immunohistochemistry characteristics with reliable direct connections of average strength with the ER (Spearman’s coefficient of correlation ρ =0.58; p<0.001), with PGR (p=0.42; p=0.021), with Ki-67 (ρ =0.55; p=0.004) and with COX-2 (ρ =0.42; p=0.021). Conclusions. The concept of the pathogenesis of СРР in proliferative genital diseases has been expanded. It is characterized by moderate expression of VEGF, high expression of ER and PGR, Ki-67 and COX-2, with NF in EE; which determines the development of СРР by the criteria being studied, both individually and in combination. Key words: chronic pelvic pain, proliferative diseases of the genitals, morphogenesis markers.

Abstract:
Background: Genital ulcers are defined as breaches in the continuity of the genital mucosa and/or skin. Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) that cause genital ulcer disease (GUD) are syphilis, chancroid, donovanosis, lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV), and herpes genitalis. This study aimed to investigate the clinical and laboratory profiles of STI-related genital ulcers. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional two-year study was conducted on patients attending the Outpatient Department of Dermatology, Venereology and Leprosy in a tertiary care center in northeastern India. Selected were 95 patients who presented themselves with STI-related genital ulcers. Detailed history taking and examination were conducted with basic tests to assist the diagnosis. Results: The male-to-female ratio was 3.32:1, and the most common site was the glans and prepuce in males (28.77%) and the labia majora and minora in females (36.36%). 96.84% of patients had superficial ulcers. The KOH mount was positive in 26 patients. The Tzanck smear was positive in 31 patients. RPR was positive in four. HIV was positive in eleven. Herpes genitalis (96.84%) was the most common GUD. Mixed STIs were attested in 41.05% of patients. Conclusion: GUD can take various forms of presentation. The available laboratory tests should be utilized. The possibility of mixed infections should always be kept in mind.

Abstract:
Metagenomics is a rapidly evolving field that has facilitated the expansion of microbiology into new areas of human and environmental health. Metagenomic studies have expanded the phylogenetic tree of life by increasing taxonomic resolution in individual phyla as well as adding entirely new branches of life. This revolution in microbiology has been made possible by the introduction of second-generation high-throughput sequencing, the associated methods for preparing DNA sequencing libraries, as well as new bioinformatic algorithms for analyzing these new types of data. Because of the novelty of these methods, very few have been systematically tested for their sensitivities and specificities outside of the initial development process. As the interpretation of metagenomic studies utilizing these tools depends greatly upon their efficiencies in both detection and classification, it is essential to best determine the performance of each tool. In this study, a variety of novel techniques were utilized and tested in their abilities to characterize the microbial populations in two regions of the female genital tract: ovarian cancer tissue and the vaginal microbiome. Although a diverse microbial population was initially observed in the transcriptome sequence data for ovarian cancer using next generation sequencing, we were unable to recover these microbial sequences through PCR and Sanger sequencing approaches. Optimized methods were applied to healthy vaginal microbiome samples and tested for their ability to differentiate them from a polymicrobial disease of the vagina, bacterial vaginosis. In addition to a high correlation between a microbial scoring system for bacterial vaginosis, this novel metagenomic pipeline also revealed microorganisms not yet associated with the vaginal microbiome such as specific Bifidobacteria spp., various bacteriophage, and Debaryomyces. Collectively, both of these studies provide unique insights into each disease as well as illustrate both the limitations and potential of the rapidly growing field of metagenomics.

Abstract:
Vulvar Vestibulitis Syndrome (VVS) is a chronic inflammatory condition affecting the vestibular epithelium of the vulva, which has been estimated to affect 15% of the female population (Goetsch, 1991). Many studies have attempted unsuccessfully, to elucidate the cause of this condition, and few advancesh ave beenm adet owards the understandingo f the associatedin flammatory responseT. he initial, and principal aim of this investigation was to characterise normal vestibular epithelium using electron microscopy. The ultrastructural characteristics of normal vestibular epithelium were compared with closely related epithelia, and with vestibular epithelia from VVS patients. Other aims included an investigation of the epidemiological characteristics of VVS; an assessmenot f vulvar sensitivity over several months, and an evaluation of ketoconazole as a non-invasive treatment for VVS. Transmission electron microscopy, confirmed that vestibular epithelium was non-keratinised, and closely resembled oral and vaginal mucosae. Intermediate cells were predominant, characterised by pale staining cytokeratin filaments and glycogen deposits. Leukocytes were present in small numbers. Using SEM, superficial cells were characterised by an interlacing network of rounded microridges. By comparison, vestibular epithelium from VVS patients demonstrated the presence of numerous, intensely staining, apoptotic-like cells. These cells were associated with membrane bound cytoplasmic lobules and leukocytes of varying types. A similar ultrastructural appearance was observed in post-treatment biopsies. However, apoptotic-like cells appeared heavily vacuolated, and the number of cytoplasmic bodies present was increased. Mature plasma cells, NK-like cells and macrophages were common in the dermis. Leukocyte counts, demonstrated a significantly greater number of leukocytes in the VVS biopsies compared with the controls, however, there was no statistical difference in the number of leukocytes in pre and post-treatment samples. The presence of apoptotic-like cells accompanied by a significant inflammatory cell infiltrate, may suggest a cell signalling defect, resulting in the pain associatedw ith VVS. Treatment with ketoconazolec ream was found to have very little effect on either the number of leukocytes or the frequency of apoptotic-like cells as quantified using image analysis. The epidemiological characteristics of VVS patients were investigated using a structured questionnaire interview. All of the VVS patients interviewed fulfilled the diagnostic criteria established by Friedrich (1987), and epidemiological findings were generally consistent with previous epidemiological reports. Unique to this study, HPV infections were rare, however recurrent Candida infections and cystitis were commonly reported. The 'Vulvar Algesiometer', was designed and developed in Plymouth, to assist diagnosis and assessmenot f VVS patients. Using this equipment, VVS patients demonstrate heightened vestibular sensitivity when compared with control patients. The utilisation of a pain measuring device the 'Vulvar Algesiometer', in accordance with the questionnaire and ultrastructural investigation has formed a novel and balanced approach to the study of VVS. This study has demonstrated several distinct features of VVS which have not previously been described, features which may be important in elucidating the cause of this condition. These features centre around the presence of apoptotic-like cells and associated cytoplasmic bodies which have not previously been described in association with VVS.

Resumo: Introdução: Os slings sintéticos marcaram a transição do tratamento invasivo para o tratamento minimamente invasivo da incontinência urinária de esforço feminina. Técnicas igualmente eficazes, porém com menores riscos de complicações têm sido pesquisadas. Os mini-slings, utilizando incisão única e de acesso exclusivamente vaginal podem representar uma alternativa à técnica de sling tradicional. Objetivo: Avaliar a eficácia do mini sling Ophira para o tratamento da incontinência urinária de esforço feminina. Material e Método: Foram avaliadas 49 mulheres que compareceram ao Ambulatório de Uroginecologia do HC da UNICAMP no período de abril de 2008 a maio de 2009 com queixa clínica de incontinência urinária de esforço. Todas as pacientes foram submetidas a Estudo Urodinâmico pré-operatório e avaliadas através de história clínica, exame físico, urina I e urocultura, teste de esforço, Pad test de uma hora e aplicação do questionário de qualidade de vida UDI-6. A colocação de mini sling Ophira foi realizada sob anestesia local em regime ambulatorial com alta após micção espontânea. As avaliações subsequentes foram realizadas após seis dias e um, três, seis e 12 meses após o procedimento, compreendendo exame físico, Pad test de uma hora e aplicação do UDI-6. A cura objetiva foi avaliada através do Pad test e do teste de esforço. A cura subjetiva foi avaliada pela queixa clínica e pelo questionário de qualidade de vida. Resultados: A análise da percepção subjetiva dos resultados demonstrou que, após 12 meses de seguimento, 37 pacientes (76%) referiram cura da IUE e sete (14%) melhora. O escore do questionário UDI-6, inicialmente com média de 41,29, caiu para 7,24 após 12 meses de seguimento. O Pad test de uma hora apresentou queda de 6,2g no préoperatório para 1g após o término do acompanhamento. Apenas seis pacientes apresentavam teste de esforço positivo no seguimento de 12 meses. Não houve complicações intra-operatórias. Apenas um caso de dor pós-operatória foi observado. Obteve-se taxa de extrusão do sling de 12,2%. Conclusão: O mini sling Ophira representa uma alternativa cirúrgica segura e eficaz para o tratamento da incontinência urinária de esforço feminina, no período de tempo avaliado

Abstract:
Chlamydia trachomatis is the most prevalent agent of bacterial sexually transmitted infections in the world. However, a profuse number of cases are unreported, as the infection is often asymptomatic. Sequelae such as pelvic inflammatory disease, an increased risk of cervical cancer, premature birth, and perinatal infections in pregnant women can occur. Inflammation occurs in the body in response to infection or injury. Although inflammation can lead to some unwanted secondary effects, such as pain, it serves to return the body to homeostasis by restoring injured tissues and eliminating pathogens. One recently identified connection between the central nervous system and the immune system that regulates inflammation is the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway (CAP). In the CAP, pathogen-associated molecular patterns stimulate the vagus nerve to activate the pathway, which ultimately results in acetylcholine (ACh) release, which down regulates inflammation. We hypothesized that genital chlamydial infection would increase the expression of choline acetyltransferase (ChAT), the enzyme that synthesizes ACh, in the female murine genital tract, therefore down regulating inflammation and promoting chlamydial infection. Transgenic female mice carrying a ChAT-promoter driven GFP reporter gene were vaginally infected with C. muridarum. Mice were sacrificed on days 3, 9, 15, and 21 post infection; cervical, uterine horn, and ovarian tissues were removed and embedded in paraffin. Small sections of each tissue were cut and mounted onto slides. The tissue sections were then stained for the expression of ChAT using immunohistochemical techniques. Finally, tissue sections were viewed under a microscope for positive staining and the data was analyzed. The results indicated that there is a significant increase in the number of cells that express ChAT in genital tract of chlamydia-infected mice versus non-infected mice.

Abstract:
Background. In sub-Saharan Africa, which has the highest prevalence of HIV-1 worldwide, most newHIV-1 infections occur by sexual transmission to women. Recent studies in non-human primates have demonstrated that pro-inflammatory cytokine production in the genital tract is necessary for immune cell recruitment and establishment of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infection following vaginal inoculation. The aims of this study were to evaluate the relationships between inflammation in the female genital tract and (i) susceptibility to HIV-1 infection and (ii) subsequent disease progression in women who became infected. Additionally, genital inflammation was investigated as a mechanism for breakthrough HIV-1 infections in women who became infected even though they were using 1% tenofovir (TFV) microbicide. In the systemic compartment, the level of T cell activation and soluble markers of immune activation during HIV-1 infection are associated with disease outcome. Therefore, the relationships between plasma cytokine concentrations during early HIV-1 infection and disease progression were evaluated Methods. The participants of this study included 230 HIV-uninfected women from the CAPRISA 002cohort who were followed longitudinally for HIV-1 infection, 49 women who were enrolled during acuteHIV-1 infection and followed until 12 months post-infection and 166 HIV-uninfected women who were enrolled in the CAPRISA 004 1% TFV microbicide trial (62 of whom later became HIV-1-infected).Cytokine concentrations were measured in cervicovaginal lavage (CVL) and plasma samples from these women using Luminex and ELISA.

Abstract:
An association between persistent Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in women and cervical cancer has been established. Young women are particularly at risk of acquiring sexually transmitted infections such as HPV because of risky sexual activity and physiological immaturity. While at risk though, young women have been shown to be amenable to health promoting initiatives. There are a small number of international studies concerning adolescent HPV infection and the risk factors associated with infection, but there is currently no evidence on the prevalence and risk factors for HPV in an Australian, sexually active female adolescent population. This study aimed to provide evidence of the prevalence of HPV, risk factors associated with infection and the patterns of sexual activity in a female sexually active, senior high school population in the Australian Capital Territory. Participants in this study were a convenience sample of 161 sexually active 16-19 year old females who had an HPV test who were attending a senior high school in the Australian Capital Territory. Nurses and doctors using a clinical record collected information about sexual and other risk behaviours. Self-obtained vaginal swabs were tested for HPV DNA using the polymerase chain reaction method and genotyping was undertaken. The HPV prevalence in this cohort of young women was 1 1.2%. High-risk genotypes were found in 55.5% and multiple genotypes were found in 38.8%. There was a significant association found between HPV infection and having had more than one male partner with whom vaginal intercourse had occurred in the previous six months. No statistically significant association was found between HPV and the age of coitarche, length of time young women had been sexually active, condom use, and smoking or alcohol intake. A young age at coitarche was common for this group. Smoking and alcohol use was seen in large proportions in this group. This is the first Australian study that has examined the prevalence and risk factors for genital HPV in this demographic group. The HPV prevalence is lower than in international studies in comparable groups, in similar age groups and much lower than in older women both in Australia and overseas. With the comparatively low prevalence comes an opportunity for important public health interventions for this group including routine Pap smears, vaccination against the high-risk types of HPV when this becomes available and strategies for young women to reduce their number of male sexual partners. A substantial amount of young women in this study were sexually active aged under 16 years. Whilst this was not identified as being a risk factor in this study, it is both a health and personal safety issue for these young women. There is a demonstrated need for health promotion strategies for this cohort about the consumption of safe levels of alcohol and for smoking cessation. Further research is recommended that includes a repetition of this study with a larger sample, the use of a prospective study design to identify trends in infection and examination of HPV prevalence and risk factors for a variety of populations.

Abstract:
Introduction: Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are more common in young people. There are few studies on STDs in the older population, particularly women. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate and characterize, with epidemiological variables, the prevalence of STDs in the female population over 50 years old, in a public reference service in Niterói city, Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil. Methods: The study was carried out at the STD Sector of Universidade Federal Fluminense. It was a descriptive retrospective study of quantitative character, carried out with women aged 50 years or older, attended at the aforementioned teaching, research, and extension unit, from 2000 to 2017. Data collection was performed with documentary research from the records of Sexually Transmitted Diseases Sector of Universidade Federal Fluminense. A total of 6,822 records were analyzed, of which 2,363 were of women. Of these, 50 were medical records of women over 50 years old. The variables used were age, education, marital status, use of condom, diagnosis, sexual and behavior characteristics (extramarital relationships and history of homosexuality), skin color, history of STDs, sex education, the number of sexual partners, and family income. Results: There was a higher prevalence of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in the form of condyloma acuminata in 48% of cases and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) I, II, or III in 20%. Syphilis occurred in 14%, genital herpes and trichomoniasis in 6% each, HIV in 4%, and gonorrhea in 2% of cases. Notably, 64% of women had no pathological history of STDs, 6% had a previous diagnosis of syphilis, and 6%, of HPV. The predominant age group was 50–59 (78%), with a higher prevalence in white women (54%). Most patients (66%) reported having one fixed partner, were married (54%), and had no history of extramarital relationships (64%). In addition, 64% of patients had no degree of sex education and 56% lived on less than two minimum wages. Most patients (78%) reported not using condoms. In 50% of cases, the level of education was incomplete primary education and only 8% had concluded higher education. Conclusion: STDs were more frequent in white women who did not use condoms. The most prevalent STD was HPV infection, as condyloma acuminata in pardo women. HPV infection as a cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) was the second most common STD in white and pardo women.

Abstract:
The paper presents data of the histochemical study of the muscular system of trematode Acrolichanus auriculatus, an intestinal parasite of the sterlet. Using fluorophore-conjugated phalloidin and confocal scanning laser microscopy, the musculature of the body wall, oral and ventral suckers, and digestive system of the parasite were described. The body wall musculature of A. auriculatus contains three layers of muscle fibers: circular, longitudinal, and diagonal muscle fibres. The distribution of muscle fibers along the parasite body were irregular; there were no diagonal muscle fibers in the posterior part of the body. In the region of the lower edge of the genital pore, a complex of muscle fibers was identified which extended from the lower edge of the genital pore to different directions. Several types of muscle fibers were found in oral and abdominal suckers. In the (ventral, dorso-lateral, and dorso-medial) lobes of the oral sucker, the transverse and longitudinal muscle fibers were identified. We described muscles of the pharynx that contained longitudinal, circular, and radial muscle fibers, and the intestine including longitudinal and circular muscles. A comparative analysis confirms the thesis of great diversity in the organization of the trematode muscles and shows the presence in various trematode representatives of both general (conservative) and specific characteristics typical for one or another attribute type.

Abstract:
Background: Teenagers aged 15-19 encounter a disproportionate burden of adverse sexual and reproductive health outcomes, especially in low- and middle-income countries. The urgent ongoing efforts are needed to lead healthy, safe, and productive lives of teenage girls. This scoping review aimed to identify the association of early menarche with negative sexual and reproductive health outcomes. Subjects and Method: A scoping review method was conducted in eight stages including (1) Identification of study problems; (2) Determining priority problem and study question; (3) Determining framework; (4) Literature searching; (5) Article selection; (6) Critical appraisal; (7) Data extraction; and (8) Mapping. The search included PubMed, EBSCO, and Wiley databases. The keywords were “effect” OR “outcomes” AND “menarche” OR “menstruation” OR “menstrua” OR “menses” OR “early menarche” AND “reproductive health” OR “sexual reproducti” AND “sexual behavior” OR “sexual debut” OR “sexual partners” OR “unsafe sex” OR “unprotected sex”. The inclusion criteria were English-language and full-text articles published between 2009 and 2019. A total of 116 full text articles was obtained. After the review process, nine articles were eligible. The data were reported by the PRISMA flow chart. Results: Four articles from developing countries (Nigeria, Malawi, Philippine) and five articles from developed countries (France, United States of America, England, Australia) met the inclusion criteria with cross-sectional and cohort design studies. The existing literature showed that early menarche was associated with sexual and reproductive health (early sexual initiation, low use of contraception), sexually transmitted diseases (genital herpes, HIV), and other factors (income, education level, sexual desire). Conclusion: Early age at menarche may contribute to the increase vulnerability of girls into negative sexual and reproductive health outcomes. Quality comprehensive sexual education may improve the sexual and reproductive health and well-being of adolescents. Keywords: early menarche, reproductive health, adolescent females Correspondence: Hanny Wulandari. Universitas Aisyiyah Yogyakarta. Jl.

Abstract:
Introduction: Behçet’s disease is a multisystem disease consisting of oral lesions, genital ulcers and uveitis with unpredictable evolution. Vasculitic and parenchymal involvement of the central nervous system is uncommon. The aim is to describe a case of systemic rheumatologic disease with unusual central involvement in clinical practice. Case report: Woman, 57-year-old, with a previous history of rheumatoid arthritis for 23 years, presented oral and genital ulcers in addition to paresthesia in the right hemiface and subacute change in visual acuity and bilateral ocular pain in 2017. She was diagnosed with Behçet’s Disease with neurological involvement, being submitted to pulse therapy with Cyclophosphamide and maintenance treatment with Azathioprine. She recurred with the same neurological symptoms in 2020, readmitted in the context of severe thrombocytopenia, being diagnosed with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. Pulse therapy with Methylprednisolone was performed, with improvement of symptoms, but thrombocytopenia was maintained. He opted for the maintenance of Immunoglobulin then, with subsequent initiation of Rituximab. Bilateral ocular sequelae persisted with low acuity and hypoesthesia in the path of the trigeminal nerve on the right. Maintains good control of the disease using Rituximab at weaning and maintenance dose of Prednisone. Conclusion: The prognosis of Behçet’s disease is poor when the central nervous system is affected and studies about treatment still have limited evidence. Early identification of the disease is essential to enable rapid and adequate treatment.

Abstract:
Context: Behçet’s Disease (BD) is a multisystem chronic disorder characterized by perivasculitis within several tissues, including the Central Nervous System – Neuro-Behçet’s Disease, which accounts for 3 – 9 % of the BD patients. Neuro- Behçet’s Syndrome may present as brainstem or pyramidal syndromes, myelopathies, meningoencephalitis, intracranial hypertension and movement or psychiatric disorders. The objective of the present work is to report a case of Neuro-Behçet’s Disease, a rare and disabling disorder. Case report: 24-year-old male presenting focal neurological deficits – hemiparesis on the right side and motor aphasia, associated with unstoppable hiccups and visual blurring. His previous pathological history featured several self-limiting episodes of the same neurological presentation, as well as acute exacerbations of oral and genital ulcers. Erythema Nodosum and Folliculitis were his main skin lesions. The ophthalmological evaluation showed bilateral cicatricial chorioretinitis. Laboratorial diagnostic procedures revealed left shift leukocytosis, high ESR, high protein level in the CSF and negative serology for B and C hepatitis, HTLV, HIV and toxoplasmosis. P-ANCA, C-ANCA, ANA and Rheumatoid factor were all found negative. Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the brain showed multiple oval- shaped T2- hyperintensity foci, with adjacent vasogenic edema, in the brainstem and basal ganglia areas – suggesting vasculitis. Treatment involved pulse therapy with Methylprednisolone, followed by Azathioprine and Prednisone. The patient has had full recovery and no other relapses. Conclusions: This case illustrates the importance of investigating Neuro-Behçet’s Disease in patients with neurological symptoms and oral/genital ulcers. The goal is to establish adequate and early treatment to improve the quality of life.

Abstract:
The antiparasitic activity of disinfectants is provided by active substances (AS) they contain. A disinfectant often contains several active substances. A correctly selected ratio of the composition components creates a synergistic effect due to which the antiparasitic activity of a disinfectant is increased. However, the opposite effect is also possible when individual components can reduce disinfection properties of a disinfectant with neutralizing other active substances included in its formulation. This article is devoted to the results of the study on ovicidal efficacy (OE) of three disinfectant compositions based on Dazomet with the addition of additive components such as ADBAC and Triameen Y12D. In addition, an analysis was carried out of the dependence of the drug disinfection activity on the combination of active substances included in its formulation. It was found that ADBAC added to Dazomet enhanced its ovicidal effect and added Triameen weakened it. The OE of the drugs was studied for non-invasive Ascaris suum eggs isolated from the genital organs of a female swine roundworm. The experiments were carried out using the suspension method with a multipurpose microchamber. The exposure time was 24 hours. The egg viability after disinfectant treatment was determined by cultivation in a humidity chamber.

Abstract:
Background The tomato yellow leaf curl disease (TYLCV) has been a major deterrent to tomato production in Israel for the last 20 years. This whitefly-transmitted viral disease has been found in the Caribbean Island in the early 1990s, probably as an import from the Middle East. In the late 1990s, the virus has spread to the US and is now conspicuous in Florida and Georgia. Objectives Because of the urgency facing the TYLCV epidemics, there was a compelling need to mobilize scientists to develop tomato variety resistant to TYLCV. The major goal was to identify the virus movement protein (MP) and to express a defective from of MP in a cultivar that contained the natural Ty-1 resistance gene. The research included 1. cloning of the TYLCV isolate from the Dominican Republic (DR) which is (or a close variant) also present in the continental USA; 2. ddefining the role of the MP; 3. mutating the putative MP gene; 4. introducing the modified gene into an advance Ty-1 line; 5. testing the transgenic plants in the field. The pressing threat to tomato production in the US resulted in an extension of the objectives: more emphasis was placed on characterization of TYLCV i the DR, on determination of the epidemiology of the virus in the DR, and on using new TYLCV resistance sources for tomato breeding. Achievements and signification 1. The characterization of TYLCV-DR allowed for more effective TYLCV management strategies that are now implemented in the DR. 2. The identification of the TYLCV MPs and, more importantly, insight into their function has provided a model for how these proteins function in TYLCV movement and support the targeting of one or more of these proteins in a dominant lethal strategy to engineer plants for TYLCV resistance. 3. The transgenic plants that are being generated with wild-type and mutated TYLCV MPs will serve to test the hypothesis that interference with one or more of the TYLCV movement proteins will be a strategy for generating TYLCV-resistant plants. 4. The fine mapping of the resistance Ty-1 gene allowed eliminating deleterious chromosome segments from the wild tomato genitor L. chilense. It may in a near future allow the cloning of the first geminivirus resistance gene. 5. Another resistance source from the wild tomato species L. hirsitum was introgressed into the domesticated tomato, resulting in the production of resistant breeding lines. Implications 1. The monitoring of TYLCV in whiteflies has been applied in the DR. These tools are presently being used to assist in the evaluation of the host-free period and to help select the appropriate locations for growing tomatoes in the DR. 2. An overall strategy to obtain resistance against TYLCV has been used. The expression of wild-type or mutated TYLCV MPs in transgenic tomato is another addition to the arsenal used to fight TYLCV, together with marker assisted breeding and mobilization of additional resistant genes from the wild.
