title: [Prediction of the severity of the course of a pathologic process at various stages of burns using phytolectins].
abstract: To predict the course of a pathological process in burn patients, the possibility for using the agglutinative capacity of erythrocytes caused by presence of lectins in the aqueous-saline extracts of the 12 species of drug plants permitted for use in medicine was studied. The activity of lectins was judged about by the intensity of agglutination of erythrocytes in 21 donor and in 26 patients with III-IV degree burns at different stages of the disease. A significant decrease in total agglutinative activity of erythrocytes in burn convalescents as compared with that in healthy patients was established.
