The Reversible Inactivation of Bacteriophage by Bichloride of Mercury
نویسندگان
چکیده
1. The complete inactivation of antistaphylococcal phage by HgCl(2) (2.8 per cent for 216 hours) can be reversed by precipitation of Hg(++) with restoration of the phage to its original titre. 2. This behavior seems more compatible with the known properties of certain enzymes than with those of living protoplasm.

The Inactivation of Bacteriophage by Mercury Bichloride; the Reactivation of Bichloride-inactivated Phage
1. The inactivation of antistaphylococcus bacteriophage suspended in infusion broth at pH 7.6 and 22 degrees C. by HgCl(2) proceeds according to the equation dP/dt = k [HgCl(2)] [P(o) - P(i)] over the range studied. 2. This inactivation can be reversed by precipitation of Hg(++) with H(2)S. In the present experiments the inactivation was carried out until only some 5 per cent of the initial pha...

There are at the present time two schools of thought with reference to the nature of bacteriophage. One group, championed chiefly by d'Herelle and Burner, considers phage to consist of living "corpuscles," while the other group views the lyric principle as partaking of all the major characteristics of an enzyme. A study of the kinetics of the bacterium-bacteriophage reaction by Krueger and Nort...

متن کاملThe effect of reversible inactivation of the central amygdaloid nucleus on cardiovascular responses in rats with renal hypertension
The brain rennin-angiotensin system (RAS) has an important role in the regulation of cardiovascular function. The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of reversible inactivation of the central amygdaloid nucleus (Ace) in normotensive rats and rats with renal hypertension (2K-1C). Two groups of normotensive rats were selected for this study. In one group, hypertension was induced...
