MEDICAL EXAMINATION OF WOMEN FOR CAMPILOBACTERIA IN CERVICAL CANAL FLUIDS Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC G01N33/48 C12Q1/04 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: cervical canal fluids are analysed in the following way: at first microscopy of cervical canal smear coloured under Gram's technique is carried out with Ziehl's solution 1:5. Then cervical canal fluids containing bacteria morphologically similar to campilobacteria are seed on to selective agar and inoculation plates are put into aerostat. After that air is evacuated to - 1 atm and charged with special gas mixture containing nitrogen 83-85%, carbon dioxide 15-13%, oxygen 2%. Evacuation and gas mixture charge are carried out twice, then it is incubated at temperature 37°C during 48 hours, followed by growth examination for specific campilobacteria clumps.

EFFECT: improved bacteriological analysis and medical treatment of spontaneous abortions in past history.
