Experimental Studies of Silicon in the Fight Against Pathogenic Microorganisms (Experimental and Clinical Studies)

The article presents the results of chemical, clinical and experimental studies of siliceous solutions. Silicon as a trace element is biologically necessary for a living organism. Violation of the exchange of silicon in the human body leads to the development of a number of skin diseases - dermatitis, erysipelatous inflammation of the skin, etc. According to foreign authors, flint water helps the body compensate for the negative environmental factor (industrial, anthropogenic, etc.) aimed at increasing immunity and maintaining nervous systems; Spectrometric research methods have shown that activated siliceous waters contain a complex of chemical elements from Si, Ca, Mg, K, Na and REE, yttrium, uranium, thorium and scandium. The results of the study showed that siliceous solutions, due to the chemical composition of medicinal minerals and REE elements, contribute to the enrichment of the chelating protein calprotectin in neutrophils, which further inhibits the growth of mixed bacterial and viral microorganisms, which leads to anti-infection efficiency
