We tested the preparation of extracellular proteins of actinomycete (VA) as an antigen in serological diagnostics of actinomycosis in the clinic. The study used blood serum samples from 25 patients who were in the Bashkir Republican Dermatovenerologic Dispensary for examination for actinomycosis. The samples obtained from patients in the dynamics of the disease were tested in the complement binding reaction (CSC) with BA and in parallel with the most common antigenic drug at present - actinolysate.
