[Effect of prolonged storage on various indices of the fatty components of freeze-dried products]. / Vliianie dlitel'nogo khraneniia na nekotorye pokazateli zhirovoi komponenty produktov sublimatsionnoi sushki.

The effect of prolonged storage at the temperature 20 +/- 5 degrees C and relative humidity 70-80% on the freeze-dried food products packed in a three-layer polymer was investigated. The organoleptic parameters, fat content and fat physicochemical properties were determined in the freshly prepared foods and foods stored for 6, 10 and 14 months. The fat component of cereals and vegetables was found to change during storage: the acid and peroxide numbers increased, products of secondary oxidation accumulated, and non-saturated fatty acids decreased. Among the foodstuffs examined the buckwheat cereal and mashed potatoes proved to be most stable and edible after 14 months of storage.

[Effect of hypokinesia on human nutritional status]. / Vliianie gipokinezii na pishchevoi status cheloveka.

In three series of experiments of 120, 49 and 180 days in duration 36 test subjects were exposed to clinostatic and antiorthostatic hypokinesia. Human requirements for various nutrients were defined under hypokinetic conditions. It was demonstrated that during bed rest exercises together with adequate nutrition and after bed rest certain nutrients can serve as efficient countermeasures against metabolic changes.

[Effect of factors imitating space flight conditions on human lipid metabolism]. / Vliianie nekotorykh faktorov, imitiruiushchikh usloviia kosmicheskogo poleta, na lipidnyi obmen cheloveka.

Studies of the effects of space flight simulation factors on lipid metabolism showed that space diets developed for space flights of different duration (dehydrated foodstuffs alone or in combination with foods preserved by other methods) did not produce noticeable changes in lipid metabolism. Nevertheless, other factors, i.e. hypokinesia, intake of nerobol during hypokinesia, an altered work-rest cycle, an increased carbon monoxide concentration (up to 15 mg/m3) influenced lipid metabolism.
