[The clinical trials of agar and Mossel EE broth.].

The cultural diagnostic of acute intestinal infections is based on application of growth medium for selective cumulation of enterobacteria. The development of composition and technology of production of national import-substituting growth medium is an important task for supporting laboratories with high quality medical products. In the state research center of applied microbiology and biotechnology are developed and registered in established procedure a dry growth medium for selective cumulation of enterobacteria (Mossel EE broth) and dry growth medium for selective isolation and counting of enterobacteria (Mossel agar). Both media are intended for selective cumulation, isolation and counting of enterobacteria of family Enterobacteriaceae in clinical material and other objects. The comparative evaluation was applied concerning growth and inhibiting characteristics of new growth media produced by the state research center of applied microbiology and biotechnology against foreign analogues using clinical material. The total correspondence of national Mossel broth and Mossel agar to foreign analogues in case of using these media with the purpose of selective cumulation, isolation and counting of enterobacteria of family Enterobacteriaceae in clinical material and obtaining objective results of bacteriolog.
