Abstrakt: The use of two monoclonal antibody types specific to different epitopes of diphtheria toxin systems have been developed to reveal diphtheria corynebacteria toxigenicity rapidly based on immunochromatographic and latex-agglutination detection of the diphtheria toxin. The methods have been tested on a sample of 36 clinical isolates. The possibility of significant detection of the toxigenic properties of the Corynebacterium strain, grown for 1 day, has been demonstrated. The developed methods allow for the detection of diphtheria toxin in concentrations of 3-4 ng/ml. The developed test systems are a perspective tool for diphtheria diagnostics because of significant time shortening as compared to traditional microbiological methods.
