COMPARISON OF THE IMPACT OF ANTISEPTIC AGENTS ON GARDNERELLA VAGINALIS AND ATOPOBIUM VAGINAE DETECTED IN THE ORAL CAVITY OF WOMEN WITH BACTERIAL VAGINOSIS.

When women with comorbid bacterial vaginosis visit periodontologist, it is essential to understand the presence of cross-infection processes between the oral cavity and vagina in this particular category of subjects. Conducting detection of Gardnerella vaginalis and Atopobium vaginae, which are provocative microbial factors for bacterial vaginosis, is a mandatory step in the laboratory examination of subjects. When choosing an antiseptic for oral cavity disinfection, the use of 0.25% dequalinium chloride is more advisable. Both subjective and objective examination methods thoroughly demonstrate the higher clinical effectiveness of 0.25% dequalinium chloride: patients report a 20% more frequent improvement in subjective indicators, the index assessment of periodontal status improves by 1.2-1.6 times, and the detection rate of Gardnerella vaginalis and Atopobium vaginae is by 20% lower compared to 0.2% chlorhexidine. The specific composition of oral microbiota in this group of subjects necessitates adjustments to treatment protocols and consideration of the specific impact on Gardnerella vaginalis and Atopobium vaginae.

HERBAL MEDICINES ANTIMICROBIAL EFFECT.

The aim - to study and compare the sensitivity of museum strains of microorganisms to the herbal medicines. Standard strains of S. aureus ATCC 25923, S. epidermidis ATCC 14990, E. faecalis ATCC 29212, E. coli ATCC 25922 and C. albicans ATCC 10231 were used for the microbiological examination. Antimicrobial activity of the herbal medicines was studied by the disk diffusion method and serial dilutions method according to European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing. According to the obtained results E. coli standard strain is maximally sensitive to tymsal. Enterococci were statistically significant high sensitive to panavir only. Museum strain of S.epidermidis was 2.17 more sensitive to tymsal than to chlorhexidine control (p<0.05). Yeast like fungi standard strain was the most sensitive to proteflazid. Growth inhibition zone was showing the sensitiveness of C.albicans to this herbal medicine, the fungicidal activity was statistically significantly higher than chlorhexidine effect in 1.2 times (p<0.05). Analysis of microorganism's sensitivity to the herbal medicines action had showed the best antimicrobial activity of herbal medicines tymsal, panavir and proteflazid compared to traditional drugs.
