ANTILYSOZYMIC, ANTIINTERFERON AND ANTICOMPLEMENTARY ACTIVITY OF SOME BACTERIA OF THE ENTEROBACTERIACEAE FAMILY
The increase in the significance of opportunistic pathogens in human and animal pathology noted in recent medical and veterinary service personnel. One of a number of reasons which are at the heart of this growth is poorly understood biology of these microorganisms, the ways of their dissemination and circulation. The paper examined for the presence of antilysozyme, antiinterferon and anticomplementary activity of 190 cultures Eschrtichia coli, 124 cultures Enterobacter cloacae, 29 cultures Serratia marcescens, 74 cultures Morganella morganii, 51 cultures of Citrobacter freundii, isolated from sheep and goats on the territory of the Chechen Republic. Studies have shown that the ability to inactivate factors of natural resistance of anti-microorganism, in particular antilysozyme, and antiinterferon anticomplementary activity is widely represented in all studied strains of bacteria.
