METHOD FOR INFECTING GUINEA PIGS AT STUDYING BIOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF TUBERCULOSIS MYCOBACTERIA

摘要

FIELD: veterinary science, microbiology.;SUBSTANCE: the present innovation deals with creating biological models and refers to infecting guinea pigs at studying biological properties of tuberculosis mycobacteria (TM). Before abdominal injection TM should be suspended in 5 ml cattle blood stabilized with 3%-sodium citrate solution. Due to unfinished character of tuberculosis mycobacterial phagocytosis the innovation provides accelerated pronounced generalized tubercular process and shortened terms of bio-assay procedure.;EFFECT: higher efficiency.;1 tbl
