“…Over the last decades the investigation of this object continues to expand introducing corrections to results obtained earlier and supplementing by new data of water properties [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. Invariably basic is such physical indicator as freezing temperature of normal and heavy waters.…”

Using the method of cryoscopy we determined the freezing temperature of light water with D/H= 4.2 ppm, 18 O/ 16 O = 910 ppm. It was found that light water freezes at the above zero temperature (0.3 ± 0.1°C) irrespective of cooling rate. It is shown that light water begins to freeze only at an overcooled metastable state. Under conditions of experiment the nucleation and growth of dendrite crystals of ice depends on the cooling rate and starts at the temperature -5.3; -8.8; -9.8 ± 0.1°C at the average cooling rate respectively 0.2; 0.3; 0.5°C⋅min -1 . It is shown than in usual water the growth of dendrite ice crystals starts at minus temperature (-6.4;-7.5; -8.8 ± 0.1°C) and increases with an increase of the average cool ing rate respectively from 0.2 to 0.6°C⋅min -1 . It was found that the initial freezing temperature of heavy water constituted -3.0--4.0 ± 0.1° at the rate of its cooling 0.2-1.0°C⋅min -1 . However in this case the freezing temperature of normal and heavy waters does not depend on the cooling rate and freezing of nor mal and heavy waters and according to reference data constitutes respectively 0.1 ± 0.1 and 3.9 ± 0.1°C.

“…Results of investigation of physicochemical and biological properties of light water are given in papers [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. Thus, paper [1] provides data on physicochemical properties of light water with D/H = 4, 18 O/ 16 O = 750 ppm; boiling temperature and melting point, kinematics viscosity temperature, density temperature, time of spin-spin relaxation of protons, coefficients of self diffusion, small angle laser light scattering.…”

Paper [12] investigated fundamental properties of light water with D/H = 4.2, 18 O/ 16 O = 910 ppm and 20°C. It is shown that anomalies of density, surface tension, and water viscosity are caused by the presence of deuterium at var ious concentrations.…”

The article has investigated osmosis transfer through a polymer semi permeable membrane of water having a different concentration of deuterium in the course of direct osmosis. For the first time osmosis transfer of water isotopologues-deuterium and oxygen 18-through the polymer semi perme able membrane separating light and heavy water has been detected. The article presents results indicating that isotope osmosis suppresses osmotic stream existing owing to different concentration of chemical components dissolved in light and heavy waters.

“…This phenomenon is explained by the fact that the melt water contains a low percentage of deuterium compared with ordinary tap water that is believed to have a positive effect on the tissue cells and metabolism. The melted water in Russia is considered to be a good folk remedy for increasing physical activity of the human body, enhancing the vitality of the organism and has a beneficial effect on metabolism [11].…”

The article outlines the data on longevity factors and mountain water in factorial research of phenomenon of longevity in mountainous and field areas of Bulgaria. It was established the dependence among various internal and external factors on a phenomenon of longevity -the residence area, health status, gender and heredity. Natural waters derived from various Bulgarian water springs as well as water with varying deuterium content and the human blood serum of cancer patients were investigated by IR, NES and DNES methods. As estimation factor was measured the values of the average energy of hydrogen bonds (∆E H...O) among H2O molecules, as well as local maxima in the IR, and DNES-spectra of various samples of water and human blood serum at ∆EH...O = -0,1387 eV (the DNES-method) and λ = 8,95 μm (the IR-method). The increased content of deuterium in water leads to physiological, morphological and cytology alterations of the cell, and also renders negative influence on cellular metabolism, while deuterium depleted water with the reduced deuterium content until the deep removal of deuterium (60-100 ppm) has 124Russian Journal of Biological Research, 2015, Vol. (5), Is. 3 beneficial effects on human health. For a group of people in critical condition of life and patients with malignant tumors the greatest values of local maxima in DNES-spectra are shifted to lower energies relative to the control group.Keywords: deuterium, heavy water, deuterium depleted water, longevity, mountain water, IR, NES, DNES. IntroductionThe question of longevity has always been an exciting one for humanity. Aging is a biological process, which leads to reduction of the vital functions of the body, limiting its adaptive capacities, and development of age-related pathologies and ultimately increasing the likelihood of death, is a part of the normal ontogeny and is caused by the same processes that lead to increased functional activity of various body systems in earlier periods of life. It is possible that these processes along with other processes (growth and development of the organism, etc.) are programmed in the human genome and biological mechanism of regulation. The question to what extent aging is dependent on heredity is not sufficiently proven in modern science.Like other biological processes, aging is accelerated under the influence of certain exogenous and endogenous factors and occurs in different individuals with different speed, which depends on genetic differences and environmental factors. The best chance for longevity gives the longevity of immediate direct genetic ancestors. That is why the direct descendants of centenarians generally have the best chances for longevity. O. Burger demonstrated that life expectancy has increased substantially from the 19 th to the 20 th century and that this cannot be advantageously associated with the human genome [1]. The main factors of longevity are water quality, food and improved advancement of medicine. For example, in Bulgaria the average life expectancy from 1935 to 1939 wa...
