Infections in the tissue material and their impact on the loss of transplants in the Laboratory of in vitro Cell and Tissue Culture with Tissue Bank in the years 2011-2015.

Radiation sterilization eliminates microbiological infections but causes the degradation of the cell factor. The negative result of microbiological examination for tissue transplants is one of the conditions for approval for distribution in patients. The study attempts to verify impact of the presence of microbes onto material for transplant loss.

[Bacteriologic examinations of patients with burns].

Bacteriological studies were performed on 189 patients treated during 1985-1989. 800 samples were tested which were taken from various sites of burn wound (3-5 smears from a patient). Surface of burn amounted to 15-86% and degree of burn was IIb/III.

Anti-Pseudomonas immunoglobulin. IV. Combined anti-Pseudomonas immunoglobulin and Pseudomonas vaccine immunotherapy of burned patients--clinical investigations.

Sheep anti-Pseudomonas immunoglobulin and Pseudomonas vaccine were used for combined immunotherapy in 55 severely burned patients. The results of clinical investigations show that active and passive immunization in the early state of thermal injury increases the anti-Pseudomonas agglutinin titer, diminish the threat of Pseudomonas sepsis and death and significantly accelerate the recovery.
