ABSTRACT
It was shown experimentally that the use of liquid Bifidobacterium concentrate (B. bifidum 791 and B. adolescentis MS-42) led to normalization of microflora in mice which resulted in the improvement of the animal general state: increase of body weight, lower death rate, decreased late embryonic mortality, better hair growth.

A comparative study was performed of coupled oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria and the composition of mitochondria from some cell cultures. The mitochondria from VNK-21 and Vero cells had a high degree of coupled oxidative phosphorylation, which was estimated by the respiratory control coefficient. The cell cultures can be regarded as a promising source of mitochondria to be used for toxicological control of the products of the microbiological synthesis.
