RESUMEN
Antioxidants are widely used in medicine due to their ability to bind free radicals - active biomolecules that destroy the genetic apparatus of cells and the structure of their membranes, which makes it possible to reduce the intensity of oxidative processes in the body. In a living organism, free radicals are involved in various processes, but their activity is controlled by antioxidants. The purpose of this work was to conduct a series of studies to identify the antioxidant activity of new synthesized compounds of a series of oxalic acid diamides in the brain and liver tissue of white rats in vivo and in vitro experiments, as well as to determine their potential pharmacological properties. The studies were conducted on outbred white male rats, weighing 180-200 g, kept on a normal diet. After autopsy, the brain and liver were isolated, washed with saline, cleared of blood vessels, and homogenized in Tris-HCl buffer (pH-7.4) (in vitro). The research results showed significant antioxidant activity (AOA) of all compounds with varying effectiveness. The most pronounced activity was demonstrated by compound SV-425 in both brain and liver tissues. Compound SV-427 demonstrated the least activity, with levels in brain tissue and liver tissue. In addition, all physicochemical descriptors of the studied compounds comply with Lipinski's rule of five to identify new molecules for the treatment of oxidative stress. From the data obtained, it can be concluded that the studied compounds have antioxidant properties, helping to protect cells from oxidative stress. This is important for the prevention and treatment of diseases associated with increased levels of free radicals.

ISO 4387 Standard determines the main aerosol constituents (total particulate matter, water, nicotine, and nicotine-free-dry-particulate matter, referred to as "tar") in cigarette mainstream smoke (ISO, 2000). Heated Tobacco Products (also called Tobacco Heating Products or Heat-not-Burn Products) are designed to form aerosol by heating tobacco rather than burning like in combustible cigarettes. In this study we have evaluated the suitability of ISO 4387 Standard to be adapted for quantifying main aerosol constituents for HTP aerosol. HTP emissions have much higher levels of water and humectants (e.g., glycerol) in dynamic equilibria between gaseous and particulate phases. Several modifications to ISO 4387 Standard on aerosol collection were tested to improve the accuracy and reliability of aerosol capturing, with minimal deviation to the standard method. The proposed modifications are readily adoptable by laboratories already practicing the Standard for cigarette smoke analyses. Taking collectively with other available aerosol chemistry and biological results on HTPs in the literature, they show a fundamentally different aerosol in HTPs and call for category-specific product standards and terminology.
