Comparative Study of Lytic Activity and Specificity of Anthrax Bacteriophages Gamma A-26, K VIEV, VA-9 and Fah-VNIIVV&M Batches

Studied are diagnostic properties of four anthrax bacteriophages. Indicated are various spectra of specific lytic activity and specificity of bacteriophages Gamma A-26, K VIEV, VA-9 and Fah-VNIIVV&M. K VIEV, VA-9 bacteriophages with wide spectrum of specific activity possess relatively low speci...

description Studied are diagnostic properties of four anthrax bacteriophages. Indicated are various spectra of specific lytic activity and specificity of bacteriophages Gamma A-26, K VIEV, VA-9 and Fah-VNIIVV&M. K VIEV, VA-9 bacteriophages with wide spectrum of specific activity possess relatively low specificity. On the contrary, Fah-VNIIVV&M bacteriophage with high specificity exhibited narrow spectrum of specific lytic activity. Gamma A-26 bacteriophage is proposed for application as a diagnostic one, as it lyzes B. anthracis strains of all types, its specificity being equal to 90 %.
