Thermal and chemical inactivation of Lactobacillus virulent bacteriophage

Rate of Bacteriophage Inactivation

The inactivation of bacteriophage by substances f rom susceptible bacteria has been studied by Burne t (1) and Freeman (2). I t s inact ivat ion by antisera has been studied by Andrewes and Elford (3) and Bumet , Keogh, and Lush (4). Recent ly Ashenburg et al. (5) reported tha t saline solutions of gum arabic, starch, or glycogen inact ivated an anti-KlebsieUa pneumon/ae phage. We have studied ...

The Influence of Hydrostatic Pressure and Urethane on the Thermal Inactivation of Bacteriophage

In Difco nutrient broth, containing 0.5 per cent NaCl, pH 6.6, Escherichia coli phages T1, T2, and T5 were inactivated at 66 degrees C., and T7 at 60 degrees C., at nearly the same rate. In each case the rate of destruction was not uniform but more or less decreased with time of heating. With T2 there was an initial increase in number of infective centers after heating for several minutes at 66...

extraction and acetylation of purified trypsin from bovin pancreas and study of some its physico-chemical properties

آنزیم تریپسین در شرایط قلیایی ناپایدار می باشد .و فعالیت پروتئولیتیکی تریپسین منجربه خود هضمی آن در جایگاههای خاصی می گردد. بنابر این آنزیمی با ناپایداری بالا محسوب میگردد. در سالهای اخیر موفق شدند که با ایجاد تغیرات شیمیایی با اضافه کردن فلزات خاص ، کلسیم و یا عمل استیلاسیون منجر به افزایش پایداری آنزیم تریپسین گردند. مطالعات در حال حاضر نشان می دهد که تریپسین استیله شده فعالیت آنزیمی خود را ...

Transduction by ultraviolet-irradiated virulent bacteriophage.

Inactivation of recombinant bacteriophage lambda by use of chemical agents and UV radiation.

Several approaches for the inactivation of bacteriophage lambda, including UV germicidal irradiation (UVGI) and the chemical agents Virkon-S, Chloros, Decon-90, and sodium hydroxide (NaOH), were compared. Virkon, NaOH, and UVGI caused a ≥7-log(10) reduction in phage titers. This study successfully describes several methods with potential for bacteriophage inactivation in industrial settings.
