Bacteriophages and bacteriophage resistance [PDF]

open access: possible, 1994
Food and dairy fermentations rely on the growth and acid producing ability of the lactic acid bacteria. Many of these have remained as traditional fermentations, where the process is driven by the natural microflora associated with the raw material. Increasing consistency, improved quality and processing efficiencies have followed the development of ...

BACTERIOPHAGE

1962
Publisher Summary Bacteriophage has the characteristic property of clearing young broth cultures, either temporarily or permanently, and of forming clear areas in young cultures on solid media. These clear zones have been styled “taches vierges,” plaques or colonies; they are considered by D’Herelle to represent colonies of the virus. Single, discrete,

Bacteriophages of lactobacilli

Biochimie, 1988
Lactobacilli are members of the bacterial flora of lactic starter cultures used to generate lactic acid fermentation in a number of animal or plant products used as human or animals foods. They can be affected by phage outbreaks, which can result in faulty and depreciated products.

Bacteriophages and cancer

Archives of Microbiology, 2010
Bacteriophages can be used effectively to cure bacterial infections. They are known to be active against bacteria but inactive against eukaryotic cells. Nevertheless, novel observations suggest that phages are not neutral for higher organisms. They can affect physiological and immunological processes which may be crucial to their expected positive ...

Chlamydia bacteriophages

Archives of Microbiology, 2013
Phages are called "good viruses" due to their ability to infect and kill pathogenic bacteria. Chlamydia are small, Gram-negative (G-) microbes that can be dangerous to human and animals. In humans, these bacteria are etiological agents of diseases such as psittacosis or respiratory tract diseases, while in animals, the infection may result in enteritis

INHERITANCE IN BACTERIOPHAGE

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1952
Publisher Summary Bacteriophages are viruses that multiply exclusively inside bacterial cells. In natural environments, bacteriophages form relatively stable associations with bacteria, called lysogenic that carry the virus intracellularly, but are resistant to its lytic action.

Viruses and Bacteriophages

Science of The Total Environment, 1981
Many of the enteric viruses which are transmitted from person to person by the fecal-oral route are found in raw and treated wastewater, and because of their persistence under adverse conditions may also be found in slightly polluted waters. There is no routine examination procedure of water and wastewater for enteroviruses, mainly because of the ...

Transduction of bacteriophage Mu by bacteriophage T1

Journal of Virology, 1977
Phage T1 transduces phage Mu PFU from Mu-lysogenic donor cells to sensitive recipient cells. The efficiency of transduction depends on the chromosomal location of the Mu prophage. T1, therefore, appears to package different regions of the bacterial chromosome with different efficiencies.

Packaging of genomes in bacteriophages: a comparison of ssRNA bacteriophages and dsDNA bacteriophages

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. B, Biological Sciences, 1976
In complex DNA bacteriophages like λ, T4, T7, P22, P2, the DNA is packaged into a preformed precursor particle which sometimes has a smaller size and often a shape different from that of the phage head. This packaging mechanism is different from the one suggested for the RNA phages, according to which RNA nucleates the shell formation.
