Inactivation of Brucellaphages by Chemical Fractions of Brucella

Abstract

IN order to examine the inactivation of phages the following Brucella substrates were used: (a) Acetone-killed bacteria of Brucella melitensis strain 16 M, suis 1330 and abortus strain 12, according to Olitzki1; (b) protein, polysaccharide and nucleoprotein fractions of Brucella melitensis strain 16 M obtained by extraction with phenol-water, according to Westphal2.
