    Abstract:
    Serological method of detection of Sh. sonnei antigens in the lysates of the patients, fecal cultures is suggested and approved. In the majority of cases of the results of bacteriological and serological methods of study of the feces coincided. Data confirming the specificity of the antibody neutralization test (ANT) in Sonne dysentery are presented. In connection with detection of the screening action of the Vi-antigen of typhoid bacilli there were elaborated additional methods for verifying the specificity of the ANT results. It is recommended to keep agar plates after selection of suspicious colonies during the bacteriological test; the lysate of the microbial crop should be additionally subjected to the ANT, this considerably increasing the percentage of laboratory confirmations of dysentery caused by Sh. sonnei.
