title: [POSSIBILITY FOR LUMINESCENCE IDENTIFICATION OF DIFFERENT TRICHOMONAS VAGINALIS FORMS].
abstract: The paper presents the results of examining the morphology of different forms of Trichomonas vaginalis by indirect immunofluorescence. Fluorescence microscopy revealed that the typical forms of vaginal trichomonads showed a very bright light green glow, around the periphery of a cell in particular; the atypical forms of trichomonads emitted in the green spectral region less brilliantly and evenly. Trichomonas fluorescence intensity was measured by spectrofluorescence assay. The experimental findings point to the fact that the fluorescence rate of typical forms, of Trichomonas is 2-4 times higher than that of its forms with atypical morphology.
