The results of the development of new culture media for the indication of ureaplasmas are presented. The media have been developed on the basis of the dried nutrient broth produced by the Research and Production Amalgamation "Nutrient Media". The composition of the media includes Russian-made ingredients ensuring the growth of ureaplasmas. The physico-chemical and biological characteristics of the media have been perfected. The clinical trial of the newly developed media has been carried out in the process of the examination of 280 pregnant women with the normal course of pregnancy, with the threat of pregnancy interruption and with complications of pregnancy.
