ANALYSIS OF OUTBREAK OF ANTHRAX IN OMSK REGION IN 2010

Abstract

Aim. Carrying out analysis of epizootologic-epidemiologic situation on anthrax that had emerged in Omsk
region in 2010 when horse meat from epizootic focus of anthrax was used in production of meat semi-finished
products. Materials and methods. Study of samples for detection of anthrax causative agents and strain identification
was performed according to guidelines 1.3.2569-09. Strain genotyping was performed by MLVA
method. Results. The epizootologic-epidemiologic investigation performed allowed to detect the causes of
emergence of anthrax outbreak, its routes and factors of transmission. MLVA genotyping results gave evidence
on the single origin of Bacillus anthracis strains isolated from sick animals, humans and food substances.
Conclusion. Timely execution of a complex of epizootic and epidemic control measures allowed to localize
epizootic and epidemic focus of anthrax as well as prevent a possible large scale development of epidemic
complications.
