These secondary compounds have attracted great interest for drug development as they may represent lead structures for new or already existing drug targets. The goals of the research: 1) to explore metabolites (total phenolic compounds, flavonoids, vitamin C) and the antioxidant activity of medicinal plants in vivo ; 2) to select medicinal plants which have accumulated the highest content of secondary metabolites; 3) to prepare the culture media with different pH values for the sage in vitro ; 4) to prepare the culture media with different KH 2 PO 4 quantities for the sage ( Salvia officinalis L.) in vitro ; 5) to explore secondary metabolites (total phenolic compounds, vitamin C, tannins) of the sage in vitro ; 6) to compare the content of metabolites of sage plants in vivo and in vitro ; In conclusion, in order to grow sage ( Salvia officinalis L.) which would give a large biomass and produce large quantities of metabolites, it is useful to increase the amount of KH 2 PO 4 two times in the Murashige–Skoog (MS) nutrient medium and to maintain pH within 5.7–6.7. Sage ( Salvia officinalis L.) was found to accumulate the larger amount of metabolites in vitro , i.e. 1.7 times of tannins, 3.8 times of the vitamin C, and 3 times of flavonoids in comparison with the sage in vivo.

With both potassium raw materials, upon selecting certain granulation process parameters, it is possible to make a high-quality product. To produce a high quality 10-20-20 + S + Mg NPK fertilizer which would be a marketable fraction, using KE requires less moisture than granulation using KCl. If the water content with KCl is 10.1 %, with a sufficient KE it is 8.8 %. However, the drying of fertilizers requires higher energy costs, as maintaining the same drying temperature and the same drying time, the fertilizer produced with KE, the remaining moisture content is 1–3 %, and this is a too high moisture for a fertilizer. The marketable fraction produced using KE is less dependent on raw material mixture granulometric composition than with KCl.

The hydrothermal synthesis of the compounds has been carried out in unmixed suspensions at a temperature of 175 °C. The duration of isothermal curing was 4, 8, 16, 24, 48, and 72 hours. In unstirred Ca(OH) 2 and SiO 2 ∙nH 2 O suspensions with CaO/SiO 2 = 1.5, within 4 hours of isothermal curing at 175 °C, dicalcium silicate hydrates – a-C 2 S hydrate, C-S-H(II) and a low base semi-crystalline C-S-H(I) type calcium silicate hydrate – were formed. Within 48 h of hydrothermal synthesis, Ca(OH) 2 was fully reacted, and semi-crystalline C-S-H(II) became metastable and recrystallized into stable compounds – a-C 2 S hydrate and C-S-H(I). The typical destruction temperatures of a-C 2 S hydrate and Ca(OH) 2 were possible to determine by using differential thermogravimetric analysis data: the destruction of Ca(OH) 2 intensively proceeded at a temperature of ~456 oC when a sample lost 1.85 % of its mass. Meanwhile, a-C 2 S hydrate destruction occurred at a higher temperature (~478 oC), and weight loss was equal to 0.58 %. After 72 h of synthesis, a-C 2 S hydrate prevailed in the products.

The structure and morphology of the prepared coatings were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It has been determined that the coatings contain 73 % of anatase and 27 % of rutile. The average crystallite size was calculated to be 21 and 54 nm for anatase and rutile, respectively. The photoelectrochemical behaviour of TiO 2 coatings was investigated by photovoltammetry. The n-type TiO 2 coatings were found to generate the photocurrents which are greatly enhanced by the presence of glycerol in 0.1 M Na 2 SO 4 aqueous electrolyte. An increase in glycerol concentration causes a decrease in the photocurrent. The presence of pure glycerol results in higher photocurrents as compared with the technical glycerol.

In case of potato starch, complexes were detected neither before nor after the treatment. The study of the rheological properties showed that after the treatment of wheat and corn starch, their gels became softer, the storage modulus (G ′ ) decreased and the delta angle (δ) increased . At the same time, the potato starch gel had a relatively low G ′ modulus and a high delta angle even without treatment, and the treatment itself had a minor effect on its properties.

Carrots are recommended for healthy diets as recognized sources of dietary fiber and antioxidant substances, such as phenols. The current research focuses on the evaluation total phenolic and antiradical activity changes in hybrids of Nantes carrots during storage. Late-bearing variety Nantes hybrid carrots were used for experiments such as Nantes/Berlikum, Nantes/Maestro, Nantes/Forto, Nantes/Bolero and Nantes/Champion. Changes of the quality parameters were evaluated after two and four months of storage in the comparison with non-stored carrots. Standard methods were used to evaluate the quality parameters: total phenols were analysed by the Folin – Ciocalteu colorimetric method with some modifications, and the antiradical activity was measured by the DPPH radical method. The present experiments revealed significant differences ( p < 0.05) in the content of total phenols and antiradical activity changes during carrot storage. The results of the research demonstrate that the content of total phenols decreases within four months of storage approximately 1.3 times as compared with the initial content before storage. However, changes of antiradical activity in carrots after two months of storage were not significant. The a ntiradical activity of carrots decreased significantly (1.8 times on average) after four months of storage.
