[The antilysosomal sign in the microbiological characterization of river algal-bacterial communities].
The species composition of a river algobacterial association has been determined and the antilysozyme sign of its bacterial component has been studied, which makes it possible to determine the recency of fecal contamination of the water reservoir. The functional dynamics of the system "lysozyme-antilysozyme" in water biocenosis has been followed with a view to evaluate the sanitary and hygienic state of open water reservoirs.

[The mathematical modelling of the possible morbidity from epidemic louse-borne typhus under current conditions].
On the basis of their earlier formula for modeling the possible development of the epidemic process of louse-borne exanthematous typhus the authors have calculated the probability of the development of such process for high indices (10 -- 12 % of convalescents with louse contamination rate among them reaching 20 -- 40 %) characterizing this process. The number of sources of this infection (primary patients), as well as the rate of increase and scale of louse contamination of the population, are of prime importance for the prognostication of the development of the epidemic.
