Abstract

Abstract. The effect of laser, microwave and EHF-radiation on the viability and morphology of Tr. vaginalis in conditions of growing it continually in liquid media is investigated. It is shown that all kinds of radiations in therapeutic dozes promote an increase in the quantity of cells. The irradiation of culture results in a change of the form and in a loss of mobility of Trichomonas. However, this does not indicate a decrease in their viability as cells preserved their ability for intensive reproduction. Various dozes of radiations have no mutagen action on DNA, which calls for revision of these physiotherapeutic methods of treatment of trichomoniasis.
