INDICATION OF YERSINIA PESTIS CAPSULAR ANTIGEN IN SUSPENSIONS OF SMALL MAMMAL ORGANS USING IMMUNOCHROMATOGRAPHIC TEST SYSTEM

Abstract

Application of a diagnostic preparation «Immunochromatographic test system for Yersinia pestis» (State Research Center of Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, Obolensk) was experimentally analyzed for serological plague diagnostics in suspensions of laboratory animal internals. The technique of a sample preparation was developed. This method is simple for implementation and easily reproduced; it is a quick test for detection of Y. pestis capsular antigen. The test-system can be applied both in laboratory and field conditions including the activities of a specialized anti-epidemic team on the basis of mobile complexes and an epidemic brigade in natural plague foci.
