title: [Detection of antibodies to various representatives of opportunistic flora in donors in Gomel'].
abstract: A passive hemagglutination test was used to study changes in the titers of antibodies to Staphylococcus, Klebsiella, Proteus, Colibacillus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa in donors of the Gomel Blood Transfusion Station. The titers much higher than in other regions (above 1:200), were obtained for Staphylococcus, Klebsiella, Proteus, Colibacillus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, being such in 79.4%, 49.1%, 29.7%, 52.9% and 36.9% of the examinees. The highest proportion of donors with increased antibody titers to the above agents were recorded in cold seasons. Dynamic tests showed a 4-fold increase in the titers in some subjects. The findings evidence for great prevalence of infectious diseases (subclinical and latent among them) caused by opportunistic agents in population living in the territories of radioactive contamination after the Chernobyl accident. It is possible to obtain highly immune preparations from donors living in the above conditions.
