Abstract

The influence of samples of 4 innovative materials developed at the Belarusian National Technical University on the basis of basalt fiber with additives of porcelain, oxides of copper, iron, and zirconium on the transplanted culture of cattle kidney cells was evaluated in this work.
 During the experiments, it was determined that the sample containing basalt, 4 % of porcelain and 4 % of FeO does not have a negative effect on the culture of MDBK cells. The material of this sample is promising for further use as a carrier for substrate-dependent cell cultures.
 Sample materials showing a pronounced cytotoxic effect (basalt + 4 % porcelain + 4 % CuO, basalt + 4 % porcelain + 8 % CuO, basalt + 4 % ZrO2 + 4 % CuO) can be considered for the manufacture of bactericidal filters. This action is explained, obviously, by the manifested biocidal properties of copper, which is part of their composition.
