Abstract
Currently, the detection and identification of viruses that cause respiratory and influenza-like illness (ILI) is one of the main tasks of public healthcare. In 2016-2017, nasopharyngeal swabs were collected from 200 sick children with ILI aged 0 to 5 years. Detection of pathogens in ILI patients was carried out by RT-LAMP amplification method. In 43 % of patients ILI viruses were detected. Among all confirmed cases of viral infection, a respiratory-syncytial virus was detected in 49 %, rhinoviruses in 16 %, coronaviruses in 9 %, parainfluenza viruses in 6 %, and human metapneumoviruses in 2 % of samples. Influenza A viruses were found in 6 % of infected specimens. The results obtained demonstrate the effectiveness of using RT-LAMP amplification in differential laboratory diagnostics of the ILI of viral etiology.

Results of identification of infectious agents of influenza and other acute respiratory infections with the method of RT-LAMP. Главными возбудителями острых респираторных заболеваний являются вирусы гриппа А и В, а также другие вирусы, вызывающие гриппоподобные заболевания (ГПЗ). Для выявления возбудителей инфекционных заболеваний стали широко применять метод изотермальной ампликации Loop Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP). Цель исследования состояла в выявлении некоторых вирусных возбудителей острых респираторных заболеваний с помощью метода RT-LAMP в носоглоточных смывах, взятых у детей младшего возраста
