Abstract

The aim of the work was to clarify the crystallogenic properties of pseudomonads under the action of an antiseptic. The material for the study was 1 strains of Ps. aeruginosa. In accordance with the purpose and objectives of the study, the work was carried out in XNUMX stages: assessment of the biological properties of the isolated pseudomonas strains; determination of sensitivity to disinfectants by the squares method; assessment of the crystallogenic (initiating) the activity of pseudomonads in an individual and joint form with a disinfectant. The tested antiseptic was "Desam" in the form of a standard XNUMX% solution. Most of the analyzed strains turned out to be sensitive to the applied working concentration of the tested disinfectant and are active initiators of the crystallogenesis of sodium chloride solution. The revealed significant differences in the tesigraphic test conducted with pseudomonas strains sensitive and resistant to the studied disinfectant create prerequisites for the development of a new express method for determining the sensitivity of microorganisms to disinfectants.
