Popis:	The paper presents data on comparison of microscopy, culture and molecular (PCR) methods for diagnosis of trichomoniasis, as well as on evaluation of the quality of culture media for isolation of trichomonads produced by Russian and international manufacturers. The highest sensitivity was shown for the molecular (real-time PCR) method. Microscopy of stained and wet smears demonstrated relatively high sensitivity. The culture media that are widely used in our country for Trichomonas vaginalis isolation need optimization.
