The Action of Pasteurella pestis Bacteriophage on Strains of Pasteurella, Salmonella, and Shigella.

چکیده
Bacteriophages active against Pasteurella pestis have been described by a number of workers, including Flu (1927), Sugino (1932), Advier (1933), and Girard (1942). The subject has been reviewed by Harvey (1933) and Wu et al. (1936). This report describes certain relationships of P. pestis to Pasteurella pseudotuberculosis and to Salmonella and Shigella strains, as shown by bacteriophage action and confirmed to a limited extent by agglutination tests.

Pasteurella Bacteriophage Sex Specific in Escherichia coli DOROTHY
Phage H, thought to be specific for Pasteurella pestis, was shown to plate efficiently on Fstrains of Escherichia coli but not on F+, F', or Hfr strains. The phage was adsorbed rapidly to Fstrains but was not adsorbed to strains carrying F. Comparison with seven other reported female-specific phages showed that, although phage H was similar to the other phages in some characteristics, the excep...

When either the F' lac or the F'Cm plasmid was transferred from Escherichia coli into Pasteurella pseudotuberculosis, the P. pseudotuberculosis (F') strains isolated formed plaques with both ribonucleic acid (RNA)-containing and deoxyribonucleic acid-containing male-specific phages. In contrast, strains of P. pestis harboring E. coli (F') plasmids did not form plaques with male-specific phages,...

All extract of polymorphonuclear leucocytes of the rat, prepared by means of ultrasonic vibration, was found to be bactericidal against M. aureus. The bactericidal activity was primarily confined to the mitochondrial fraction of the leucocytes. The rat leucocyte mitochondrial extract was bactericidal against both Gram-positive (M. aureus, beta-Streptococci, Diplococcus pneumoniae, Corynebacteri...
