Epizootic situation and fox rabies prophylaxis in the territory of Tatarstan.

Data on the epizootic situation of rabies in the Republic of Tatarstan from 1970-2003 were obtained from epizootological and immunological monitoring. The districts in Tatarstan were divided into four groups according to the intensity of indices and a map of epizootics was developed. A three- to five-year cyclic recurrence of rabies, with peaks in the spring-winter-autumn seasons of the year was established. Foxes are the basic source and spreader of rabid infection in the Republic amounting to 96.5 % of rabies cases among wild animals. The present study gives the results of epizootological analysis of the efficacy of oral immunization of foxes in the republic since 1996.

[Monoclonal antibodies to Chlamydia psittaci: their isolation, characteristics and use].

A panel of 22 hybridomas producing monoclonal antibodies (McAb) to C. psittaci was obtained. 15 hybridomas produced IgG1 antibodies, 4 hybridomas produced IgM antibodies and 3 hybridomas produced IgG2b, IgG3 or IgA antibodies. IgG1 antibodies and 2 IgM antibodies did not bind complement in the complement fixation test. All McAb were reactive in the enzyme immunoassay and the indirect immunofluorescence test and did not precipitate specific antigens. Peroxidase conjugates on the basis of McAb effectively detected Chlamydia antigen, prepared from the crude suspension of chick embryo yolk sack infected with different strains of C. psittaci and C. trachomatis, in different modifications of EIA.
