title: [Quantitative technic in the diagnosis of nonspecific lung diseases].
abstract: A total of 356 sputum samples from patients with nonspecific pulmonary diseases and tuberculosis were used in tests carried out in order to compare the method of qualitative analysis for the detection of nonspecific microflora and the method of quantitative estimation proposed by Dixon and Miller. In the process of this work the guantitative method was rationally modified, which allowed to decrease its cost while making it more reliable. The main advantage of the proposed modification lies in the possibility to greatly facilitate the detection of the etiological agent of the inflammatory process.
