Abstract
Two bacteriophages specifically active against to pathogenic strains of the Salmonella genus were isolated. The morphology of phage colonies (size, transparency, and shape of the plaque edge, and halo) and the spectrum of their lytic activity and interaction with microbial cells (adsorption rate, duration of the latency, and reproductive efficiency) were examined. Using genome-wide sequencing, we determined the taxonomic position of bacteriophages and verified the absence of unwanted genes encoding toxins, adhesins, and invasins, as well as pathogenicity islands responsible for antibiotic resistance. In addition, phage stability under different physical conditions and their productivity were studied.
期刊介绍:
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine presents original peer reviewed research papers and brief reports on priority new research results in physiology, biochemistry, biophysics, pharmacology, immunology, microbiology, genetics, oncology, etc. Novel trends in science are covered in new sections of the journal - Biogerontology and Human Ecology - that first appeared in 2005.
World scientific interest in stem cells prompted inclusion into Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine a quarterly scientific journal Cell Technologies in Biology and Medicine (a new Russian Academy of Medical Sciences publication since 2005). It publishes only original papers from the leading research institutions on molecular biology of stem and progenitor cells, stem cell as the basis of gene therapy, molecular language of cell-to-cell communication, cytokines, chemokines, growth and other factors, pilot projects on clinical use of stem and progenitor cells.
The Russian Volume Year is published in English from April.
