Vy. Sokolov et Av. Tarasevich, METHODS FOR RAPID-DETERMINATION OF THE ANTIINTERFERON ACTIVITY OF BACTERIA, Zurnal mikrobiologii, epidemiologii i immunobiologii, (11-12), 1992, pp. 10-11
Methods for the rapid and immediate determination of the anti-interfer
on activity of bacteria have been developed. The use of these methods
makes it possible to reduce the time of determination from 48 hours to
24 and 7 hours. The proposed methods require no additional production
costs, while their sensitivity and specificity are not inferior to th
ose ensured by the classical method. These methods are recommended for
the etiological diagnosis of diseases caused by opportunistic enterob
acteria.
