ABSTRACT
Morphofunctional conditions of hypophysealadrenal axis and placenta following hypoxis hypoxia and an infrared treatment, were studied in rats. The data obtained involved high levels of the DNA, RNA, and lipidogenesis. Probable mechanisms of structural changes are discussed.

The introduction of prophylactics of hepatitis B in surgical departments results in 2 times lower growth of HBsAg carriers among medical men. The main prophylactic measures consist in an analysis of the donor blood and HBsAg examination of surgical patients, treatment of HBsAg carriers as acutely contagious persons, centralized sterilization of medical instruments and individual protection of the personnel.

The study has revealed that the concentration of HBsAg preparations is simple and easily performed with the use of polyacrylamide, but not dextran gels. Rheophoresis has been shown to be a more sensitive method of indication than countercurrent immunoelectrophoresis. Rheophoresis has been proposed for introduction into medical practice at rural health institutions.
