The Institute of Physiology offers partners services for assessing the concentration of the main soy phytoestrogens in dry baby food products using high-performance liquid chromatography and mass spectroscopy on the basis of an outsourcing agreement, transfer of the measurement methodology "Determination of phytoestrogens in baby food products using HPLC/MS" under a license agreement and is looking for partners interested in a distribution services agreement.

The method is designed to determine the concentration of the main soy phytoestrogens (genistein, daidzein and glycitein) in dry infant formula, cereals, and cookies.

Potential consumers of the method are testing laboratories accredited according to GOST ISO/IEC 17025-2019 "General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories".

Determination of the level of phytoestrogens in baby food products by HPLC/MS will allow monitoring their content in food products and, consequently, in the diet of children, which will reduce the risks to their health.

Information is posted in the "Album of Promising Developments of Organizations of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus for the Real Sector of the Economy" (2023), pp. 367-368. (in Russian)

Similar methods have not been developed in the Republic of Belarus before.

The effectiveness of the method is determined by the high accuracy of determining the content of small amounts of phytoestrogens in baby food products due to the use of HPLC/MS with preliminary extraction.

The developed measurement method is environmentally safe when used in an accredited laboratory.

The use of high-precision preparative and analytical methods allows for further improvement of the measurement method, in particular for determining other types of phytoestrogens in food products.

Determining the level of phytoestrogens in baby food products using HPLC/MS will allow monitoring their content in food products and, consequently, in children's diets, which will reduce the risks to their health.

The measurement methodology “Determination of phytoestrogens in baby food products by HPLC/MS” is certified by the RUE “Belarusian State Institute of Metrology” (certificate No. 1198/2019 dated 05.12.2019). (in Russian)

The Institute is a leading scientific institution coordinating physiological research in the Republic of Belarus.

The institute successfully carries out fundamental and applied research aimed at developing methods for the prevention and correction of pathological conditions of hypoxic, ischemic and inflammatory genesis, and develops new devices and methods for their therapeutic and prophylactic use. The main scientific activity of the departments is currently focused on studying the mechanisms of the formation of pathological conditions of the body (primarily hypoxic and neurodestructive) and substantiating new technologies for prevention, treatment and rehabilitation. Particular attention is paid to the development of complex methods for the treatment of malignant tumors using metabolic blockade effectors and high-intensity pulsed magnetic fields and methods for controlling the proliferation of tumor cells based on changes in the functional state of neuroreceptors in vitro and in vivo, as well as the development of a method for immunotherapy of patients suffering from pancreatic cancer. , using autologous dendritic cells primed with tumor antigens and elucidating new mechanisms of tumor formation, substantiation of prevention methods. Studies of the molecular mechanisms of proliferation, differentiation and oncogenesis are being carried out; physiological and therapeutic effect of physical factors and the development of new technologies of physiotherapy and physiotherapy equipment and experimental analysis of positive and negative aspects of the use of nanoparticles and heterocyclic compounds in biomedical technologies. The neurophysiological bases of dysregulation of the functions of internal organs during ischemia of the nervous tissue of various origins are being studied. Works on the physiology of nutrition and sports are being carried out. Preclinical studies of drugs and nanomaterials are underway. Research is being carried out on the safety of biosubstances, biotherapeutic agents, pharmacological complexes and medical products on the basis of agreements with manufacturing enterprises and research institutions. The staff of the Institute conducts research on the mechanisms of interaction between neurons and glial cells in normal and pathological conditions. The functional role of biological preparations (platelet-rich plasma, suspension of mitochondria, mesenchymal stem cells, etc.) in the activation of reparative processes in strokes and brain injuries, ischemia of the lower extremities is being studied. Methods for stable remote monitoring of vital human functions (heart, blood vessels, respiration, temperature, motor activity, brain activity) are being developed. Particular attention is paid to the study of the functional role of the extracellular matrix and stem cells in the development of neoplasms. Cell technologies are being developed for the treatment of malignant diseases. The Institute also evaluates the therapeutic and therapeutic-prophylactic properties of natural mineral waters and the effectiveness of pre- and probiotics - food, food supplements.

Close scientific cooperation is carried out with scientists from Russia, China and Uzbekistan.
