SOME CHARACTERISTICS OF THE ORAL CAVITY AND TEETH OF COSMONAUTS ON MISSIONS TO THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION

: Earlier studies were furthered by examination of parodentium anaerobic microbiota and investigation of gingival liquid immunological factors in space flight. Immunoglobulins were measured using the .enzyme immunoassay (EM). The qualitative content of keya parodentium pathogens is determined with state-of-the-art molecular biology technologies such as the polymerase chain reaction. Statistical data processing was performed using the principle component analysis and ensuing standard statistical analysis. Thereupon, recommendations on cosmonaut's oral and dental hygiene during space mission were developed.
