This method is standardized in a number of regulatory documents. It is one of the most widely used in laboratory practice and well known to sanitary microbiologists. It is based on the inoculation of the product in enrichment broth, followed by preliminary identification on Endo agar. Typical coliform bacteria grow on it in the form of red colonies with metallic lustre. Such characteristic external signs, together with the controlled selectivity of the medium itself, sometimes encourage bacteriologists to conclude that coliform bacteria were detected without the necessary Gram stained microscopy. It should be noted that the current methodology for monitoring the suitability of nutrient media in Ukraine does not sufficiently consider the specifics of sanitary and microbiological studies of food products. Thus, according to the information letter of the Ministry of Healthcare of Ukraine, Endo agar selectivity can be considered acceptable if at least 108 cells of Staphylococcus aureus strain ATCC 25923 are inhibited. The reason for this condition may be the direction of the said regulatory document mainly to laboratories that carry out microbiological diagnosis of infectious diseases, including purulent-inflammatory ones, caused by S. aureus. But these bacteria are rarely found in food products. But DSTU ISO 11133-2: 2006, which relates to testing food products and feed, offers a typical representative of the intestinal micro-flora (Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212) as a non-target microorganism for controlling the selectivity of the medium for Escherichia coli group bacteria. Unlike regulatory documents of ministries and departments, state standards in Ukraine are not binding. At the same time, a significant part of laboratories researching food products subordinate to the Ministry of Healthcare and in their work should be guided by the above-mentioned information letter.\u0000\u0000Therefore, it is necessary to consider the reports concerning the possible growth of red colonies with a metallic lustre, which are typical for coliform bacteria and do not even belong to the family of enterobacteria, in Endo medium. So, examining pasteurized juices on Endo medium, we observed the colonies with the above-mentioned characteristics, but with further microscopy we found large, gram-positive cells of a round shape like yeast.\u0000\u0000Thus, adherence to standardized techniques for compulsory microscopy of suspicious colonies, including “typical-type” ones, should be mandatory for identification of coliform bacteria. The question also arises as to the appropriateness of revising the list of test strains to control Endo agar selectivity. To spread the use of chromogenic agar for the selective detection and identification of coliform bacteria and E. coli on foods other than milk is promising.

Cases of mushroom poisoning (ICD–T62.0) among the adult population of Kyiv; statistic data from the Ministry of Health of Ukraine, the State Emergency Service of Ukraine and the toxicological centre of the Kyiv City Clinical Emergency Hospital. Study methods used: analytical, systemic and comparative analysis.\u0000\u0000Results and Discussion. In the general structure of acute poisoning, cases of mushroom poisoning account for 3%. The average hospital mortality rate is 9.3%. Among the aetiological factors, poison amanita prevails, conditionally edible mushrooms are in the second place, and edible mushrooms, which acquired toxic properties due to anthropogenic pollution of the environment are in the third place. The following abnormal conditions were found in poisoned persons: toxic gastroenterocolitis (81.4%), toxic neuropathy (2.1%), toxic hepatonephropathy (16.2%). It was established that the risk groups for poisoning associated with mushrooms are the population with a lack of understanding of the possible danger of eating mushrooms: unskilled workers, unemployed, school and preschool children and inhabitants of large cities who have no stranger in picking mushrooms (mainly men). In general, poisoned persons showed a low level of awareness of the danger and lack of knowledge about the means of preventing poisoning at the stages of picking, sorting and preparation of mushrooms and the rules of primary health care.

Study of changes in residual spirodiclofen in apples, pears, grapes, cucumbers and eggplants overtime was performed in different agroclimatic zones of Ukraine during field experiments. Consumption rates of spirodiclofen were 120 g/ha as two applications, and 144 g/ha as 3 applications in the agro-industrial sector, and 1.2 g/0.01 g as two applications at private households. Residual spirodiclofen in the test samples of agricultural products was measured using chemical analytical methods of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).\u0000\u0000Results. Results of conducted studies suggest a moderate reduction in the residual amounts of the active ingredient in fruit crops and the rapid one in vegetable crops. It was found that during harvesting, spirodiclofen content in apples and pears did not exceed MAL (maximum allowable limit); spirodiclofen was not detectable in grapes, eggplants and cucumbers. Calculation of half-lives of the test substance in the treated plants during vegetation was performed.
