Russian scientists have developed an express test that can significantly accelerate the diagnosis of anthrax. The new system allows you to identify the disease faster and more accurately compared to existing methods.
Specialists of the Microbe anti -Shchumn Institute of Rospotrebnadzor were engaged in the development. The work was carried out as part of the federal project “Sanitary Shield of the country”, aimed at increasing readiness for biological threats.
A new test is able to detect the pathogen of infection even with its extremely low concentration. This is especially important if the patient has already started taking antibiotics, which usually reduces the accuracy of traditional diagnosis.
Development allows you to establish the presence of a disease 1.5 times faster compared to existing methods. Such efficiency can play a key role in limiting the spread of infection and the timely start of treatment.
