چکیده

The yield of bacteriophage 643 was increased by infecting cultures of Streptococcus lactis ML3 in late-log phase growth, harvesting the infected cells, and suspending them in fresh, phosphate-buffered minimal medium. The cells lysed after this treatment and produced high titers of bacteriophage. The phage particles were dissociated from debris by 2 M NaCl and purified by differential and CsCl band centrifugation.

Effect of black pepper essential oils and orange peel terpenes on the inhibition of Lactobacillus plantarum and the inhibition of L. plantarum yit0068 bacteriophage proliferation. C. Jose1, N. Jose2, C. Hicks*2, and I. Surjawan2,

Phage-peptides were prepared from L. lactis ssp. lactis ml3 and L. plantarum yit0068 bacteriophage using a ficin hydrolysis. The ml3 and yit0068 peptides were compared to L. lactis ssp. lactis c2 bacteriophage peptides to determine growth inhibition of C2 host and inhibition of both ml3 and c2 bacteriophage. M17 with .011 mM CaCl2 media with and without phage peptides (2 or 2.5%) were heat trea...

Isolation of a recombination-deficient mutant of Streptococcus lactis ML3.

A recombination-deficient mutant of Streptococcus lactis ML3 designated MMS36 was isolated on the basis of its sensitivity to methyl methanesulfonate. This mutant also displayed sensitivity to UV irradiation. The inability of MMS36 to mediate homologous recombination was demonstrated by transduction of plasmid-linked lactose fermenting ability but not chromosomally mediated streptomycin resista...

Polyethylene glycol-treated protoplasts prepared from Streptococcus lactis LM3302, a lactose-negative (Lac) derivative of S. lactis ML3, were transformed to lactose-fermenting ability by a transductionally shortened plasmid (pLM2103) coding for lactose utilization.

Effect of spermine on host-cell lysis and reproduction by a lactic streptococcal bacteriophage.

A method was tested for protecting a Streptococcus lactis strain, ML3, used as a starter in the manufacture of Cheddar cheese, against the lytic activity of its homologous phage, ml(3). At a concentration of 10(-2)m, a naturally occurring polyamine, spermine, in the form of its hydrochloride, protected ML3 against lysis-from-without and lysozyme activity and against lysis by the phage when adde...

Effect of chloramphenicol on host-bacteriophage relationships in the lactic streptococci.

Chloramphenicol (CM)-resistant mutants of Streptococcus lactis strain ML3 were obtained either as a consequence of continuous transfer of the bacteria in broth containing increasing amounts of CM or by selecting for high-level resistant derivatives after mutagenic treatment of the bacteria. Some CM-resistant cells obtained by the first method were also resistant to the homologous bacteriophage....
