Environmental context The lanthanides are a group of heavy elements (from lanthanum to lutetium) increasingly used in many electronic consumer products and little is known about their environmental mobility and toxicity. In natural systems, these elements will bind to natural organic matter but metal toxicity is usually defined by the free metal ion concentration. Here, we propose a method based on sample equilibration with an ion-exchange resin to measure the free lanthanide ion concentration in the presence of natural organic matter. Abstract An ion-exchange technique that employs a polystyrene sulphonate ion-exchange resin was developed for determining environmentally relevant free-ion concentrations of Ce, Eu, La and Nd. Owing to the high affinity of rare earth elements (REE) for the selected resin, this method requires the addition of an inert salt to increase the concentration of the counter-ions (i.e. cations that are exchanged with REE bound to the resin). The use of a batch equilibration approach to calibrate the resin allowed the implementation of the ion-exchange technique at reasonably low ionic strength (I = 0.1M). Several ligands were used to test the selectivity of the method, which proved to be highly selective for the free metal ion in presence of the tested cationic and anionic complexes (REE–nitrate, REE–malic acid and REE–nitrilotriacetic acid systems) and operational for very low proportions of REE3+, owing to the strong REE–resin interactions. The ion-exchange technique was also implemented to determine [Eu]inorg in the presence of natural humic matter (Suwannee River Humic Acid) and the results were compared with those obtained using equilibrium dialysis and those calculated with chemical equilibrium models. At pH 4.00, the measured [Eu]inorg values were in fairly good agreement with those predicted with the Windermere Humic Aqueous Model and Stockholm Humic Model, whereas the Non-Ideal Competitive Absorption model appeared to underestimate the [Eu]inorg. However, the inorganic europium concentrations were strongly underestimated (4 < [Eu]inorg, IET/[Eu]inorg, calc < 18) with the three prediction models at higher pH (5.3 and 6.2).

In order to solve the problem of the long production cycle and low yield of traditional inositol production process, we made several researches based on the traditional process. We experimented on the following methods to obtain a high yield qualified products: microwave-assisted phytin extraction, ion-exchange resin phytic acid absorption, elution of weak alkaline into phytate, atmospheric pressure enzymatic hydrolysis of phytate, ion exchange resin filtration, bleaching, further concentration, crystallization and refinement of hydrolysate.

The aim of the research – adaptation, optimization and using of existing DNA extraction methods from bees’ biological material with the reagent «Chelex-100" under complex economic conditions of native laboratories, which will optimize labour costs and improve the economic performance of DNA extraction protocol. Materials and methods. In order to conduct the research the samples of honey bees’ biological material: queen pupae exuviae, larvae of drone brood, some adult bees’ bodies (head and thorax) were selected. Bowl and drone brood were obtained from the experimental bee hives of Institute of Apiculture nd. a. P. I. Prokopovich of NAAS. DNA extraction from biosamples of Apis mellifera ssp. was carried out using «Chelex-100®» ion exchange resin in different concentrations and combinations. Before setting tests for determination of quantitative and quality indexes, dilution of DNA samples of the probed object was conducted in ratio 1:40. The degree of contamination with protein and polysaccharide fractions (OD 260/230), quantitative content of DNA (OD 260/280) in the extracted tests were conducted using spectrophotometer of «Biospec – nano» at the terms of sample volume in 2 µl and length of optical way in 0,7 mm [7]. Verification of DNA samples from biological material of bees, isolated by «Chelex-100®», was conducted after cold keeping during 24 hours at 20°C using PСR with primaries to the fragment of gene of quantitative trait locus (QTL) Sting-2 of next structure [8]:  3' – CTC GAC GAG ACG ACC AAC TTG – 5’; 3' – AAC CAG AGT ATC GCG AGT GTT AC – 5’ Program of amplification: 94 °C – 5 minutes – 1 cycle; 94 °C – 1 minute, 57°C – 1 minute, 72 °C – 2 minutes – 30 cycles; elongation after 72°C during 2 minutes – 1 cycle. The division of obtained amplicons was conducted by gel electrophoresis at a low current – 7 µÀ, in 1,5 % agarose gel (Sigma ®) in TAE buffer [7]. The results. At the time of optimization of DNA isolation methods, according to existing methods of foreign experts, it was found optimal volume of ion exchange resin solution was in the proposed concentration: instead of 60 µl of solution used 120 µl of «Chelex-100®», time of incubation was also amended from 30 minutes to 180 minutes [9]. The use of the author's combination of method «Chelex-100®» with lysis enzymes, proteinase K and detergents (1M dithiothreitol), as time of incubation was also amended, which was reduced to 180 minutes instead of the proposed 12 hours [10]. Changes in quality characteristics of obtained DNA in samples after reduction in incubation time were not found. Conclusions. The most economical method of DNA isolation from bees’ biological material is 20% solution of «Chelex-100» ion exchange resin with the duration of the incubation period of 180 minutes. It should also be noted that the best results can be obtained from exuviae, selected immediately after the queen’s exit from bowl, that reduces the likelihood of DNA molecules destruction under the influence of nucleases activation, but not later than 12 hours from release using the technology of isolated obtain of queens.
