RESUMO
AIM: Analysis ofresults of epidemiologic monitoring especially dangerous, natural-foci and other infectious diseases, asill as epizootologic activity of natural foci of infection on,the terri- tory, of city-resort Sochi. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Laboratory studies of 820. samples by PCR; im- mune- and bacteriologic methods were carried out, among those 344 - clinical material, 12 - water from open bodies and 321 - field material. Molecular-genetic identification of-143 strains of Vibrio-cholerae, isolated from open water bodies of city-resort Sochi, was-carried out,. RESULTS: Circulation of causative agents of Q fever, tularemia and hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome of Dobrava-Adler genotypes was established, -as well as rickettsia of tick spotted fever group Predomination of rotaviruses (70.9%) was detected during study of samples of clinical material in etiologic structure of sporadically emerging acute intestine infections. Relatively high temperature values of river water during summer months (from 18, to 30 C), exit of sulfide mineral waters into the riverbed, that create-alkaline medium, seasonal reduction of river debit and speed of water current facilitated sustenance of contamination of water of Agura river by V.cholerae. CONCLUSION: Activity of natural foci of the infectious disease and contamination of Agura iver by V.cholerae Ο1, (atoxigenic) gives evidence on the necessity of constant control of epidemiologic situation by dangerous and natural-foci infectious diseases on the territory of city-resort Sochi, as well as study regional features, of their causative agents, including using genetic methods.
