[The determination of sialidase activity in the blood serum and saliva]. / Opredelenie aktivnosti sialidazy v syvorotke krovi i sliune.

A method for sialidase (neuraminidase; EC 3.2.1.18) measurements in the blood serum and saliva has been developed. The activity of this enzyme in the blood serum manifests in repeated intensive stressogenic exposures, malignant tumors and acute respiratory diseases. Salivary sialidase activity is elevated in the patients with multiple dental caries.

[Determination of free and bound forms of sialic acids in biologic objects]. / Opredelenie svobodnoi i sviazannykh form sialovykh kislot v biologicheskikh ob"ektakh.

A method for simultaneous measurements of free, oligomer-bound and protein-bound sialic acids in the blood serum, saliva, and tissue homogenates is offered. The results of these parameters measurements after stressogenic exposures and in some diseases are presented.
