научно-исследовательский институт бруцеллеза и туберкулеза животных Российской академии сельскохозяйственных наук», Омск Полученные экспериментальные данные свидетельствуют о том, что разработанные сухие питательные среды на основах печеночного настоя и гидролизата сороги обладают высокой чувствительностью, полностью ингибируют рост бруцелл в S-форме и могут быть использованы для выделения, культивирования и накопления бруцелл в L-форме при бактериологической диагностике бруцеллеза. Питательные среды не нуждаются в корректировке рН, не требуют фильтрации и автоклавирования, удобны при транспортировке, что позволяет использовать их для работы в стационарных и полевых условиях.

Live vaccines are used for specific brucellosis prophylaxis in the Russian Federation. These vaccines in addition to a number of  positive properties have some limitations including high  agglutinogenicity, reactogenicity, sensitizing activity. In this  connection, the development of subunit vaccines without adverse  reactions is a perspective direction in modern vaccinology. Complex  morphological research of the adrenal glands and comparative  analysis of peripheral blood (leukogram, leukocytic index and index  of allergization) of white mice immunized with thermoextracts (ТE)  of Brucella abortus I-206 in L- and S-form and inactivated vaccine B.  abortus 19 ВА were conducted. It was shown that ТE unlike B.  abortus 19 ВА caused minor alterations in peripheral blood of the  experimental animals in early periods of observation (increase of allergization index, changes in leukogram) with the subsequent  levelling to the values in control. Expositions of the adrenal gland  zoning were determined and cellular structure was estimated in  consideration of morphometry. Changes in architectonics of the mice  organ immunized with B. abortus 19 ВА were revealed. These alterations could indicate the stress-reaction development. In  case of ТE application the given changes were insignificant and were  developed in early periods. The revealed morphological changes in  adrenal glands of laboratory animals permit to prove the necessity of  realization the further experimental researches to ТE application  as the components for development of a subcellular brucellosis vaccine.

Relevance. In the Russian Federation is noted the negative dynamics of epizootic process of brucellosis among epidemiologically important species of farm animals (cattle and small ruminants), which represents a threat to the population. Used in Russia live vaccine based on a strain of Brucella abortus 19 the BA has reduced virulence, but capable at high doses (108 -2 109 m.c.) cause a generalized infection in guinea pigs and humans, and in violation of the rules cause post-vaccination complications. Goal. Assess possibility of the thermo-extract derived from the S- and L-forms of Brucella, get an immune response in guinea pigs, and reduce the risk of infection with virulent brucella. Materials and methods. Two series of experiments were carried out on guinea pigs. Immunized guinea pigs thermo-extracts (TE) from a strain of B. abortus I-206 in the S- and L-forms, and live brucellosis vaccine (Scientific and Production Association for Immunological Preparations «Microgen», Russia). To infect guinea pigs using virulent B. abortus 544 (Reference) and B. melitensis I-203 from the museum of living cultures of the Irkutsk Scientific Research Anti-Plague Institute. Results. In the first and second experiment after immunization L TE in dose 5 mg and 10 mg after infection with B. abortus and B. melitensis 5441-203 were approximately similar results. Immunization of Brucella in TE S-form or complex of L + S TE either of two doses (5 mg or 10 mg) cultures after infection B. abortus and B. melitensis 5441-203 gave the same result as a vaccine B. abortus 19VA. Conclusions. The results indicate the prospects of further study of experimental steps for using immunizing agents TE S, L TE and TE S + L on the laboratory animals.
