ABSTRACT
The solid-state extraction technique and chromatography mass spectrometry were used to study the intrinsic composition of organic components of the mineral water obtained from the Munok deposit located in the Kazachinsko-Lensk district, Irkutsk region. The active components determining the mechanism of action of a mineral water-based preparation were identified and showed to operate similarly to those of Naftusya mineral water. The balneotherapeutic preparation was fabricated making use of the earlier developed technology of water vapor distillation. The analysis of organic components of mineral water and its extraction products showed the presence of aliphatic hydrocarbons with the high content of unsaturated compounds. The preparation thus obtained, unlike the standard balneotherapeutic medicines, does riot contain an inorganic matrix; it was shown to increase body resistance in the phase of remission in the patients treated for the management of urolithiasis.
