Pavlov V.P. Bioelectronic systems for early diagnostics in ensuring the industrial safety in sea and fresh waters

Abstract: This research presents the materials on bioelectronic system of early diagnostics of aquatories developed by the Russian scientists. The article offers a complex approach towards the real-time monitoring of water resources that allows increasing the level of safety within large industrial objects, the functioning of which is connected to the possibility of serious environmental violations in the event of emergency situations. Such bioelectronic systems are based on the diagnostics of the condition of the invertebrates, dwelling within a specific ecosystem that contains a possibility of threats of emergency situations and acts of terrorism. The invertebrates living at the bottom of these waters are used as biosensors. Tiny fiber optic sensors of cardiac activity are attached to them and allow real-time remote continuous monitoring of their condition. Detection of the peculiarities of the behavior of the animals within the changing environment became the foundation of the development of the fiber optic method of monitoring the cardiac activity of the benthic invertebrates with a hard shell: Crustacea (Decapoda) and Mollusca.


Keywords:

Bioelectronic systems, early diagnostics of ecosystems, marine safety, bio indicator, biological monitoring, animal testing, variable pulsometry, remote monitoring, selection of cardiac rhysms, distribution of cardiac intervals
