[The study of aerobic bacterial background and antibiotic-sensitive isolated strains in the ENT department].

Aerobic microbes in ENT departments were studied. The following strains were isolated: Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Enterococcus, Acinetobacter, Klebsiella, Pseudomonas, Flavobacter, Citrobacter, Enterobacter, Escherichia, Aspergillus, Candida. 54.5% of the isolated strains were of hospital origin. Comparative evaluation of antibiotic resistance has shown a wide spectrum of resistance of the isolated microorganisms to antimicrobial drugs, among those to the drugs used in the ENT departments.

[An experimental study of the patterns in the development of an inflammatory process in the mandibular bone tissue caused by exposure to anaerobic microflora].

Inflammatory process in mandibular bone was induced in 39 outbred rats by a pure culture of Bacteroides fragilis and by an associative culture of B. fragilis and Staphylococcus aureus. Anaerobic microflora notably aggravated the course of inflammation. In contrast to inflammation in other parts of the skeleton, inflammation of the jaws involves a high risk of infection of the oral cavity by pathogenic microflora. A variety of microorganisms is isolated from the focus: from gram-positive staphylococci to gram-negative enterobacteria, which fact should be borne in mind when planning antibiotic therapy. Combined use of antibiotics active towards the entire spectrum of agents detected in this study is the most effective.

[Rational approach to correction of intestinal microflora].

This paper reviews the present notions of the mechanisms of probiotics' action and analyzes selective approaches to correcting the intestinal microflora, such as the use of antibiotic-resistant and highly-adhesive probiotics, treatment with autostrains of lactobacilli and bifidobacteria, and the application of fermented-milk probiotics. Methods for optimization of the intestinal microflora in the newborns by using the maternal strains of bifidobacteria and the drug Zlemik that contains highly-adhesive lactobacilli are discussed. It is shown that parameters of immunotropic activity and involvement in the bacteriocin-mediated interactions may be used to design new probiotics. In future, the application of gene engineering methods will aid in designing a new generation of probiotics with predicted biological properties.

[The effect of Lactobacillus acidophilus "Solco" on the immunological indices of totally decontaminated mice under complete gnotobiological isolation].

The possibility of stimulating the immunity of totally decontaminated mice, kept isolated under germ-free conditions, with the use of killed L. acidophilus Solco strains has been studied. As revealed in this study, the oral and intraperitoneal administration of strains O1 and O6 to mice leads to a significant increase in the content of immunoglobulin-synthesizing cells in the jejunal lamina propria of the animals. The oral administration of L. acidophilus Solco strain O6 and the intraperitoneal injection of L. acidophilus Solco strain O1 have been found to lead to a significant rise in the level of luminol-dependent chemiluminescence of mouse peritoneal macrophages. The total decontamination of mice induces the development of secondary immunodeficiency which influences the effectiveness of immunostimulating agents.

[Immunomodulating properties of various microbes--representatives of normal intestinal microflora].

The impact of oral administration of heat-killed bifidobacteria, lactobacteria, enterococci and bacteroides on mouse resistance to experimental salmonellosis and content of immunoglobulin-synthesizing cells in the proper plate of the small intestine was studied. It was shown that the administration of the killed bifidobacteria, lactobacteria and enterococci increased the animal resistance to experimental salmonellosis infection and induced an increase in the content of immunoglobulin-synthesizing cells in the proper plate of the small intestine. The administration of the killed bacteroides had no such effect. Possible development of bacterial preparations with immunomodulating properties based on killed bifidobacteria, lactobacteria or enterococci is discussed.

[The effect of fermented-milk bifidumbacterin on the intestinal microflora of test pilots].

Bacteriological study of intestinal microflora in test pilots, regularly exposed to excessive physical, as well as nervous and emotional strain, has revealed changes in the composition of their intestinal microflora. Correction of microflora by means of bifidumbacterin, a curative lactic fermentation alimentary product, was carried out. Rapid and effective restoration of intestinal microflora and improvement of the general state of patients were noted, which made it possible to recommend this product as a prophylactic remedy for subjects at risk of development of dysbiotic disturbances.

[Selective decontamination of the intestine and total gnotobiologic isolation in treatment of mice with acute radiation sickness].

Comparative study of ciprofloxacin, pefloxacin and amikacin showed that ciprofloxacin and pefloxacin had a selective action on the intestinal microflora of conventional mice. Amikacin induced inhibition not only of the opportunistic bacteria but also of the representatives of the indigenous microflora. The use of the drugs in combination with total gnotobiological isolation in treatment of experimental radiation sickness provided an increase in survival of the irradiated animals, the more so as ciprofloxacin was used.

[The experimental and clinical effect of ciprofloxacin on the microflora of the gastrointestinal tract].

The study of the influence of cyprofloxacin on the microflora of the gastrointestinal tract has been made under experimental and clinical conditions. As revealed in this study, cyprofloxacin produces a corrective effect on the intestinal microflora; the action of this preparation, in contrast to that of other antimicrobial preparations, is retained for a long time. In patients having duodenal ulcer with bacteriosis caused by Campylobacter pylori and with intestinal dysbacteriosis the combination of cyprofloxacin and cimetidine yields a higher therapeutic effect than the use of cimetidine alone.

[The effect of new antimicrobial preparations used in combination with complete gnotobiotic isolation on the survivability and intestinal microflora of total-body irradiated mice].

The aim of these investigations was the study of the effect of different antimicrobial preparations on the survival rate and intestinal microflora of mice with experimental acute radiation sickness. These investigations revealed that the survival rate of the animals increased 3.1 times with the use of Supramycin, 2.4 times with the use of Tacef and 1.6 times with the use of Spizef and Pen-bristol. The study of the influence of these preparations on the intestinal microflora revealed that Spizef not only decreased the number of opportunistic microorganisms, but also led to a sharp drop in the level of lactobacteria. The use of Pen-bristol and Tacef led to practically complete elimination of enterobacteria enterococci, staphylococci, as well as lactobacteria. Supramycin essentially suppressed the number of opportunistic microorganisms and did not affect the level of lactobacteria. This was probably the cause of the highest effectiveness of Supramycin in comparison with Tacef, Spizef and Pen-bristol.

[The effect of total gnotobiological isolation and antimicrobial preparations on the survival of mice with acute radiation sickness].

In experiments on 406 CBA mice the effect of antimicrobial preparations, used in combination with total gnotobiotic isolation, on the survival rate of totally irradiated animals was studied. The use of antimicrobial preparations was shown to considerably enhance the survival rate of these animals. Cyprofloxacin, a new preparation of the kinolone row, exhibited a good effect ensuring selective decontamination of the intestine. The use of cyprofloxacin prior to irradiation with the subsequent isolation of the animals in gnotobiotic chambers increased the survival rate of these animals by 2.7 times. But the maximum survival rate of irradiated mice was observed in those cases when antimicrobial preparations were used both before and after irradiation in combination with the total gnotobiotic isolation of the animals.

[The effect of "Solco" lactobacteria (Lactobacillus acidophilus) on the survival and microflora of mice with a Salmonella infection].

The Solco lactobacterial strain L. acidophilus Lat 11/83 has been used for the normalization of intestinal microflora in experimental post-infectious intestinal dysbacteriosis in mice. The results of experiments indicate that the intragastric administration of live Solco lactobacteria contributes to an increase in the survival rate of infected animals and the normalization of their gastrointestinal microflora. This strain may be used as a bacterial preparation for the regulation of intestinal microbiocenosis.

[The correction of dysbiotic disorders of the vaginal microflora by using a preparation made from highly adhesive lactobacteria].

The effectiveness of a new bacterial preparation obtained from highly adhesive lactobacteria and intended for the correction of dysbiotic disturbances of vaginal microflora was studied in the treatment of 60 pregnant women with dysbacteriosis of the maternal passages. 30 pregnant women were simultaneously treated by the vaginal application of Lactobacterin. The study showed that the use of the preparation of highly adhesive lactobacteria caused the pronounced and stable correction of the microflora of the maternal passages. This correction was manifested by the domination of lactic acid bacterial flora and a decrease in the number of opportunistic microorganisms.
