Роль системной регуляции экспрессии генов патогенности в вирулентности Listeria Monocytogenes
Диссертация
Ю. На основе предложенной модели регуляции экспрессии факторов патогенности разработан и внедрен в практику принципиально новый метод идентификации возбудителя листериоза L. monocytogenes. Метод основан на определении изменений в уровне лецитиназной активности в присутствии активированного угля, характерных только для L. monocytogenes, но не для других Listeria spp. Продемонстрировано, что… Читать ещё >
