receiving food products guaranteeing
absence in heavy metals, radionuclide, etc.

simple technology of cultivation

utilization of agriculture and wood industry
wastes
Probitic obtaining of different medical directions
The drugs «Lactolor», «Acidolor», «Acidolak» have been designed
on the basis of a speed key of the strains of lactic acid bacteria of a
genus Lactobacillus: L. murinus LE ІМВ B-7037 and L. rhamnosus
LB3 IMB B-7038 within the framework of cooperation with Institute of

A MFC is a device that use bacteria to oxidize organic
A MFC is a device that use
matter and produce electricity. Bacteria attached to the
bacteria to oxidize organic
anode,
electrons that move to the cathode

and produce
produce
electricity. The bacteria
(attached to the anode)
produce electrons that travel
to the cathode (current).

Wastewater treatment by biological
methods
Equipment works with hydrobionts
communities including bacteria, protists,
rotifers, worms, larvae of insects etc. All
bacteria are mobilized in special fibrous
carrier “Viya”. Treatment of water is
finished in phytoreactor.
Biogas technologies
Common substrates of biogas obtaining are
different organic wastes.
We start to research of physicochemical
properties of complex organic substrates and
communities of bacteria which are optimal for
methane fermentation.
Research of biosystems and processes
in magnetostatic field

Research of self-organization
processes in the metal-electrolyte
system in magnetostatic field

Sorption of heavy metals ions by
Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells using
ferromagnetic elements system.

Metal surface microstructuring by
electrodeposition and magnetically
operated corrosion methods in
magnetic field.

