A unique, many-functional complex of mobile laboratories for SAET on the basis of cross-country chassis was created for the first time. The complex is designed for work in the areas of ES in the sphere of sanitary and epidemiologic welfare of the population. This unparalleled project was carried out in the course of step-by-step modernization of the specialized anti-epidemic teams (SAET) of the Rospotrebnadzor anti-plague institutes in the light of implementation of the conception of SAET modernization and main principles of SAET functioning. Presented are structural and functional characteristics of the complex of SAET mobile laboratories on the basis of cross-country chassis, and engineering and technical means used. Substantiated are relevant levels of biological safety provision for every laboratory. Qualitative advantages of the laboratories on the basis of cross-country chassis are marked, and algorithm of provision of constant readiness of SAET mobile complex is presented.
