A STUDY OF PLAGUE BACTERIOPHAGES AND BACTERIAL MUTANTS RESISTANT THERETO. I. BIOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF PLAGUE BACTERIOPHAGES,

摘要

Results are reported of a study of biological properties of plague phages which were used to obtain phage-resistant variants of plague bacteria and to elucidate their origin. The properties studied include the range of phage action,phage specificity, adsorbtive capability,duration of intracellular development,and average yield per one bacterial cell.
