Abstract:
The efficiency of application of the test-system "Vy`borAntibiotika" (AntibioticChoice) in incubation of a maximal possible number of bacteria from pathologic material in case of pneumonia was studied. The results of meta-genome analysis permitted to establish that test-system support incubation of practically all bacteria detected in phlegm, including those attributed to so far non-incubated ones. The comparison of the results was carried out concerning a standard detection of sensitivity of bacteria to antibiotics and choice of efficient medicinal according the results of application of test-system "Vy`borAntibiotika". The obtained data demonstrates that test-system permits to choose antibiotic during 6-20 hours without isolation of pure strain.
