The informative value of biological characteristics of Staphylococcus aureus reflecting the ability of microbes to inactivate certain factors of natural resistance (lysozyme, complement, immunoglobulins, bactericidal component of interferon) was established in determining the duration of the caused by them pyo-inflammatory diseases such as postinfection abscesses, lactation mastitis. On this basis the heterogeneous successive procedure of pattern recognition was used to develop algorithms allowing prognosis of the duration of pyo-inflammatory diseases of staphylococcal etiology in 84.6-94.4% of the patients after the quantitative and qualitative assessment of the biological properties of the pathogen with not less than 90% reliability.
