Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Soil foci of anthrax located on the territory of the republic represent a certain danger to the population and the environment. In the process of work, an epizootological examination of two anthrax foci located in the Tolebiysky and Kazygurtsky districts of the Turkestan region was carried out. For microbiological studies, soil samples were taken from the territory of these foci from the surface and from various horizons to a depth of up to 30 cm. Studies of soil samples by bacteriological and biological methods showed that they showed the absence of the pathogen B. anthracis.
