Abstract

Objective of the study is to assess the effectiveness of the methods for molecular diagnostics and identification of Yersinia pestis strains in the field material obtained from Sarydzhas high-mountain focus in Kyrgyz Republic. Materials and methods. Investigated were the samples of the field material, isolated in 2016 in Sarydzhas high-mountain plague focus, using conventional methods of laboratory diagnostics and PCR with hybridization-fluorescent and electrophoretic registration of results. Results and conclusions. It is demonstrated that in a number of cases molecular-genetic method has a higher resolution as compared to conventional methods of laboratory diagnostics of plague. It proves the necessity of wider usage of molecular-diagnostic methods in epizootiological monitoring of plague in natural foci in Kyrgyz Republic.
