Mechanism of the Inactivation of the Bacteriophage T1 in Aerosols

ABSTRACT

The mechanism of inactivation of bacteriophage T1 in aerosols was studied by using 32P-labeled phage. During inactivation, viability decreased in parallel with the adsorption of 32P to the host, showing either that inactivated phage does not adsorb or that the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) has left the coat. A 32P band at the density of free DNA was found when inactivated phage was analyzed in a CsCl gradient.
