Abstract |
The efficacy of liquid brucellar allergen (LBA) was studied in 227 brucellosis patients with active infectious process and marked DTH, in need of a pathogenetically based decrease of specific infectious allergic background. The reference group was made up of 140 brucellosis patients given only basic therapy ( antibiotics, antiinflammatory and symptomatic agents). The administration of LBA, whose active principle is a polysaccharide and protein complex, reduced high sensitivity to brucellar antigen and raised the functional activity of neutrophilic granulocytes and T-lymphocytes, improved the late results of the treatment of patients with brucellosis running its course with pronounced sensitization.
