SURFACE INACTIVATION OF BACTERIAL VIRUSES AND OF PROTEINS

1. The seven bacterial viruses of the T group active against E. coli, are rapidly inactivated at gas-liquid interfaces. 2. The kinetics of this inactivation whether brought about by shaking or by bubbling with nitrogen are those of a first order reaction. 3. This inactivation may be prevented by the...

description 1. The seven bacterial viruses of the T group active against E. coli, are rapidly inactivated at gas-liquid interfaces. 2. The kinetics of this inactivation whether brought about by shaking or by bubbling with nitrogen are those of a first order reaction. 3. This inactivation may be prevented by the addition of enough protein to maintain the gas-liquid interface in a saturated condition. 4. The analogy between this phenomenon and the surface denaturation of proteins is pointed out and discussed.
