Annotation. S. aureus is a leading cause of nosocomial infections in health care facilities. The aim of the study was to determine the effectiveness of the use of staphylococcal bacteriophage, phytopreparation “Chlorophyllipt”, of the drug “Protargol”, compared with antimicrobial chemotherapeutic drugs (ACD) against isolates of Staphylococcus aureus in vitro. Used clinical strains of S. aureus, isolated from 20 patients, aged 19 to 25 years. The susceptibility of microorganisms to ACD was determined on the MPA medium by disk-diffusion method. Staphylococcal bacteriophage sensitivity scores were evaluated by drainage lysis of bacterial indicator culture and negative phage colonies. Anti-staphylococcal activity of phytopreparation and protargol solution was determined by diffusion in agar with the isolates tested. Statistical data processing was performed using Microsoft Excel 2013. In determining the susceptibility of S. aureus isolates to ACD, 30% of penicillin-sensitive strains were detected. Amoxicillin sensitivity was 25% of strains. The rate of detected sensitivity of microorganisms to amoxiclav was 45% of strains. Sensitivity to cephalosporins I-II generation amounted to 75% cephalexin, cefazolin, cefuroxime — 90%. For cephalosporins of the third generation — from 70% to 95%; to macrolides: to clarithromycin — 80%, to erythromycin, azithromycin — 50%, 55% respectively. High sensitivity was reported for lincomycin — 80%. The studied strains showed absolute sensitivity to amikacin (100%). 95% strains were sensitive to gentamicin. Not exceed 60–65% sensitivity to tetracyclines and fluoroquinolones. All bacterial isolates were sensitive to bacteriophage. High antimicrobial activity in up to chlorophyllipt was detected in up to 8 test strains. 19 strains have had low-sensitivity to protargol. The results obtained indicate the feasibility of bacteriophages in the medical practice and the continuation of microbiological studies with the study of antimicrobial activity of herbal drugs.
