[Sensitivity to antibacterial preparations of the pseudotuberculosis bacteria isolated on the territory of the Ukraine]. / Chuvstvitel'nost' k antibakterial'nym preparatam psevdotuberkuleznykh bakterii, vydelennykh na territorii Ukrainy.

Sensitivity of 92 strains of the causative agent of pseudotuberculosis isolated in the Ukraine was studied with respect to 26 antibacterial drugs. It was found that the strains of the pseudotuberculous bacteria were sensitive to 17 drugs, i.e. benzylpenicillin, ampicillin, carbenicillin, cephaloridin, chloramphenicol, tetracycline, streptomycin, neomycin, monomycin, kanamycin, gentamicin, polymyxin, colistin, furadontin, nalidixic acid, sulfisoxazol and septrin. No differences in the sensitivity of the strains isolated in various districts of the Ukraine and from various sources were found. By their antibiotic sensitivity the strains isolated in the Ukraine did not differ from the cultures isolated in other districts of the USSR and abroad.

[Structure of the antibiotic resistance of the salmonellae found in Transcarpathia]. / Struktura ustoichivosti k antibiotikam sal'monell, rasprostranennykh v Zakarpat'e.

Resistance of 1280 strains of Salmonella of various serological types isolated in the Zakarpatskaya region within 1967-1976 was studied with respect to benzylpenicillin, streptomycin tetracycline, levomycetin, monomycin, neomycin, erythromycin and oleandomycin. An Increase in the resistance of Salmonella to streptomycin, tetracycline, levomycetin, monomycin and neomycin was shown. During the last years Salmonellae carrying 4-8 resistance determinants were spreading in the region. Among S. typhimurium strains with 7-8 resistance determinants predominated (58.8 per cent). The cases of salmonollosis were mainly due to these strains.
