    Abstract Background: The Self-Concept Maintenance Theory emphasizes the internal moral principles of the individual and their influence on self-perception of personal identity. They also inform the way in which an individual catalogues their behavior. For instance, a nursing student who is academically dishonest, yet justifies their behavior in rational terms. They act with dishonesty, yet their self-concept is of an honest person.
    Objectives: The study examined the extent of dishonesty in nursing education (includes academic and clinical), the perception of self-concept vis-à-vis dishonesty, and the relationship between academic and clinical dishonesty among nursing students.
    Design: A cross-sectional study.
    Settings: A major university in central Israel.
    Participants: Nursing students (n = 343), the age range is 19-58 and 80% women. Academically, 37% come from a professional post-graduate program, 32% from a baccalaureate program, and 31% from a nursing professional retraining program.
    Methods: The research tool that was disseminated to the participants is based on the Student Academic Dishonesty Questionnaire. The tool examined actual academic and clinical honesty/dishonesty, behavior cataloging by students, their internal principles, and perception of self-concept relating to honesty/dishonesty.
    Results: Significant relationships were found between all model variables, with no differences noted between programs and the number of years to the degree. Academic dishonesty was reported by 41% of the students with 11% reporting clinical dishonesty. Academic dishonesty was related to clinical dishonesty (χ2 = 34.752; P < 0.0001).
    Conclusion: The study findings are most troubling due to the direct impact of dishonesty on patients' treatment, outcomes and the graduates' professional level. Dishonesty can lead to significant deficiencies in knowledge, professionalism and expertise of the future professional. This state of affairs can be detrimental to the quality of patient treatment. Thus, dishonesty in academic and clinical education has devastating consequences for individual patients and the health and safety of the broader community.

    Abstract The purpose of this scientific work was to find and study the variety of wild grapes as future promising sources of selection and valuable traits on the example of the territory of the natural reserve «Red Forest”. Analysis of modern scientific literature on the study of Vitaceae Juss. family biodiversity showed that there is practically no scientific information on agrestic Kuban forms and autochthones of grapes. This article represents the beginning of a new large research work on the study of wild Kuban grapes under study in the territory of Krasnodar Krai, in particular, in the state natural reserve “Red Forest”. The following methods were used in the work: route reconnaissance (during expeditions), traditional geobotanical and ampelographic, analytical. 5 isolated populations of agrestic grapes have been found on the territory of the “Red Forest” nature reserve. For the first time, these forms were studied and described by the ecological and geographical growth conditions and morphological traits of vegetative and generative spheres of grape plants. Significant variability of some indicators has been revealed. The presence of damage by pests and diseases was not visually detected. Hypothetically, these isolated grape populations may belong to Vitis vinifera ssp. Silvestris Gmel. or its variation var. Tipica Negr. (wild forest grapes). Samples were taken for further genetic analysis. This research was carried out within the framework of the RFFR grant project (contract No.19–416–230025).

    Abstract The vertical distribution of the anthropogenic radionuclide Cs-137 in the Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) bark was studied in two model trees in the radioactive contamination zone of the Bryansk region. Each tree was divided into 10-cm bars from the trunk base to a length of 17 m, and the bark with the bast was separated from each bar to obtain a separate sample. In addition to Cs-137, the natural radionuclide K-40 was measured in the bark of model tree 2 from the trunk base to a 6.5-m length. Specific activities of Cs-137 and K-40 were measured by γ-ray spectrometry. The vertical distribution of Cs-137 in the bark was for the first time observed to have a wave-like pattern with a period of approximately 1 m. The K-40 distribution showed a similar oscillatory pattern, consistent with a similar mechanism responsible for potassium and cesium behavior in woody plants. The correlation coefficient between specific activities of Cs-137 in model trees 1 and 2 was 0.80; the correlation coefficient between Cs-137 and K-40 activities in model tree 2 was 0.45. Cs-137 was assumed to provide a radiotracer to assess the intake and distribution of chemical elements in Scotch pine tissues. The oscillatory pattern observed for the vertical distributions of cesium and potassium in the pine bark has not been described in the available literature before.

    Abstract The biodiversity of the Vitaceae Juss family is studied with more interest than before, but still not fully according to the current scientific literature. For example, indigenous varieties and wild forms of grapes are known in the Crimea, Dagestan, along the banks of the Don and in other regions, but there is practically no data about wild and autochthonic grapes in the Kuban. This work presents new data about wild grapes studied in the Krasnodar region in the forests of the “Red forest” reserve. The ecological and geographical conditions of their growth are studied in detail. The description of plant community where the studied plant forms grow is conducted. Isolated populations of wild grapes, presumably belonging to the species of Vitis vinifera ssp. silvestris Gmel. or its varieties - var. Tipica Negr. (typical wild forest grapes) were ampelographically studied. Samples were taken for further genetic analysis to identify the origin of these forms and identify promising donors of resistance to various environmental stressors for use in the breeding process.

    Abstract Grapes are one of the most common agricultural crops in the world. Currently, the analysis of genotypes directly at the DNA level is considered to be the most accurate method for studying the plant gene pool. The study of wild vines and ancient varieties in various regions of viticulture is an important direction of research in this field. The purpose of this work was to study the population of wild grapes growing on the territory of the Utrish Nature Reserve on the Black Sea coast of Krasnodar Region. The territory of the reserve is of interest as it is a site of ancient settlements, and the environmental conditions are suitable for the growth of wild grapes. During the survey of the territory, 24 samples of wild grapes were found, which were described according to the main morphological characteristics and analyzed by the molecular genetic method. The found vines were genotyped using 15 DNA markers, including nine commonly used for DNA fingerprinting (VVS2, VVMD5, VVMD7, VVMD25, VVMD27, VVMD28, VVMD32, VrZAG62, VrZAG79) and VVIb23, which allows determining hermaphrodite and dioecious vines. Statistical processing of microsatellite loci polymorphism data was carried out using the GenAlEx 6.5 program. The genetic relationships of the studied vines were evaluated using the PAST 2.17c program. The samples were found to be morphologically and genetically polymorphic. The number of alleles identified in the sample varied from 5 to 18 and averaged 8 alleles per locus. Statistical processing of DNA analysis data made it possible to identify two genetically different populations among the wild discovered vines. An assessment of genetic similarity of the found vines with some local varieties of geographically close viticulture regions, rootstocks and representatives of Vitis sylvestris from other territories was made. One of the populations found in the Utrish Nature Reserve is close to a number of V. sylvestris genotypes, the DNA profiles of which are presented in the Vitis International Variety Catalogue.

    Abstract The present paper investigates the study of features of brain activity by the process of change the regimes of information associated with the stages of understanding of the meaning of visually presented texts in adult subjects (n = 148). Researchers have developed an original methodology of step-by-step presentation of the texts. This technology has allowed the researchers "to catch" a psycho-physiological markers of understanding and identify the stages in a temporal sequence of the process of understanding. EEG data was analysed using spectral and non-linear methods. Was highlighted three stages: "before understanding", "understanding" and "after understanding". The study discovered the phenomenon of V- shaped changes to the values of the fractal dimension of EEG. The first stage is characterized by the increasing of the power spectrum of EEG in the high frequency range and increase the value of the fractal dimension of EEG, what probably reflects the process of the generation of ideas and the search of solutions. At the next stage ("understanding") a decrease in the value of the fractal dimension of EEG was registered, and an increase of the power spectrum of the low-frequency range. This seems to reflect the simplification of the invariance of reality to the only valid alternative. The last stage is characterised by the increasing power spectrum of EEG in the high frequency range and increase the value of the fractal dimension of EEG, which can reflect the process of intensification of activity of the brain associated with the verification of the correctness of the decision. The results obtained allow an approach to the understanding of the physiological mechanisms of the reorganization of the system of brain activity in the process.of understanding of the meaning of visually presented texts. This, therefore, outlines the path to the elimination of existing contradictions in the literature relating to the role of high- and low-frequency components of the EEG as markers of the state of understanding.

    Abstract Protein composition of fruits kernels of 7 walnut cultivars of Nikita Botanical Gardens selection grown in soil and climatic conditions of the foothill Crimea (‘Alminsky’, ‘Arkad’, ‘Burlyuk’, ‘Dolinny’, ‘Podarok Valentiny’, ‘Karlik 3’, ‘Karlik 5’) were studied and the fractional structure was determined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and 2-mercaptoethanol treatment. The observed change in the molecular weight profile can be explained by breaking thio-diester bonds in oligomeric protein complexes formation. The obtained results were similar for all walnut cultivars, studied which indicates the possible functionality of these proteins only in a form of complexes in their native state.

    Abstract A passively Q-switched Nd:YAG laser with a master-oscillator power-amplifier configuration based on Brillouin and Raman pulse compression has been developed. The laser operates at 100 Hz repetition rate, producing 50 mJ pulses of approximately 30 ps duration at 1530 nm wavelength with near-diffraction-limited beam quality (M2≤1.2). The effect of spherical aberration in thermally loaded Nd:YAG rods was studied, and efficient aberration compensation was achieved by use of a specially designed aspheric element.

    Abstract We optimized procedures for the collection, preparation, and storage of samples of exhaled air and the conditions for determining volatile organic compounds in exhaled air by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS), the presence or change in the concentration of which can be caused by lung cancer. The analysis circuit includes group adsorption preconcentration followed by the thermal desorption and determination of analytes by GC–MS. Polymer bags of a Tedlar® film were used for sample collection. The conditions and periods of the storage of samples in bags and adsorption tubes are determined. A method for cleaning and conditioning bags is proposed. For preconcentrating exhaled air components, we used hydrophobic adsorbents (Porapak™ P, Porapak™ Q, and Tenax® TA) and three-section tubes containing Tenax® GR, Carbopack™ B, and Carbosieve® S-III. Their relative efficiency was evaluated by assessing the residual background of gas emission from the adsorbent, the magnitude of the analytical signal, the efficiency of adsorption/desorption, and the efficiency of storage. The conditions for the preconcentration of volatile organic compounds (volume and rate of aspiration, time, and temperature of thermal desorption) are optimized. The main volatile organic compounds in the exhaled air of conditionally healthy volunteers were identified, and their concentrations are evaluated.
