  • Title: Stimulating effects of a weak constant magnetic field (0.8 Gauss) on the growth of two mycobacterial phages no 308 and 33d.

    Journal: J Hyg Epidemiol Microbiol Immunol; 1982; 26(3):230-4. PubMed ID: 7142685.
    Abstract:
    A liquid culture of ATCC 607 infected with two mycobacterial phages and exposed to constant magnetic fields 0.8 G for 48 hours was replanted on simple agar media without oleic acidalbumin enrichment. In both phages a pronounced stimulating effect was observed demonstrated in the phage No. 308 by almost confluent lysis in magnetized culture and in the phage 33 D by uncountable lytic plaques. Magnetized phage cultures could be preferably used for preparing rich stock suspensions also from poorly growing phages needed for phage classification of mycobacteria.
