Development of primers for the detection of leptospirae in clinical material including urine. Materials and methods. Study of specificity and sensitivity of primers complementary to colA gene in standard PCR by using DNA preparation of cultures of pathogenic and saprophytic leptospirae, biological materials from healthy humans and dogs, including contaminated with pathogenic leptospirae culture. Results. Specific interaction of these primers with DNA of pathogenic leptospirae of 14 serogroups was established. Sensitivity of the technique was 50 cells in 1 ml of sample. Conclusion. The primers described fulfill the requirements for the sensitivity and specificity and can be recommended for the detection of leptospirae in both serum and urine.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Цель. Разработка праймеров для выявления лептоспир в клиническом материале, в том числе в моче. Материалы и методы . Проведено исследование чувствительности и специфичности праймеров, комплементарных гену colA, в стандартной ПЦР с использованием препаратов ДНК культур патогенных и сапрофитных лептоспир, биологического материала от здоровых людей и собак, в том числе контаминированного культурой патогенных лептоспир. Результаты . Было установлено специфическое взаимодействие данных праймеров с ДНК патогенных лептоспир 14 серогрупп. Чувствительность методики составила 50 клеток на 1 мл образца. Заключение. Описанные праймеры удовлетворяют требованиям чувствительности и специфичности и могут быть рекомендованы для применения с целью детекции лептоспир как в сыворотке, так и в моче.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>leptospirosis</kwd><kwd>diagnostics</kwd><kwd>Leptospira genus</kwd><kwd>PCR</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>лептоспироз</kwd><kwd>диагностика</kwd><kwd>род Leptospira</kwd><kwd>ПЦР</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Самсонова А.П., Петров Е.М., Аляпкина Ю.С.
