Abstract:
Based on analysis of comparative data on peculiarities of
brucellosis progression, an assertion can be made that in the
latest decade brucellosis in people has been less symptomatic
which impedes its diagnostics. In such cases laboratory methods
of studying this infection are utterly important. This confirms the
importance of improving and developing new, more sensitive
and specific means of diagnostics, especially those for rapid
testing and instrumental account of test results. A diagnostic test
system has been developed for detection of specific antibodies to
brucellosis pathogens in indirect enzyme immunoassay in the
course of study of human biological material, and the conditions
for its application have been optimized. The results are
presented to demonstrate that the test system is fairly specific
and sensitive, which allows proposing it for routine diagnostics
of brucellosis as a complementary or alternative test method.
