Cases of tick-borne rickettsiosis in Siberia and the Far East are associated with R. sibirica, the causative agent of Siberian tick typhus (STT). In connection with a sharp reduction in the nomenclature of diagnostic products and an increase in the spectrum of species of founding rickettsiae on the territory of Russia, new approaches to the laboratory verification of diagnoses are needed.

Listeriosis erythrocytic diagnosticum developed at the Omsk Research Institute for Natural Focal Infections permits the detection of species-specific antibodies in patients' sera and convalescents after this infection and is characterized by a sufficiently high diagnostic efficacy. Use of this agent appears to hold good promise in the diagnosis of listeriosis in the acute period of the disease, in retrospective diagnosis, and in screening of risk groups.

A study of the circulation of toxigenic and nontoxigenic diphtheria bacilli was carried out in several carrier state foci under conditions of a natural course of the epidemic process. There were 2623 persons under observation. A total of 32158 analyses were carried out, and 2271 strains were isolated and studied.
