    Abstract:
    The properties of the 18 S. aureus bacteriophages of the serogroup F were investigated. The chosen bacteriophages were able to convert production of fibrinolysine inhibited synthesis of beta toxin. All of the investigated bacteriophages were classified as morphological group II of the family Styloviridae on the basis of the electron microscope analysis. The size of capsids of the examined bacteriophages was 54.10 +/- 0.80 nm and the tail length was from 206.1 nm to 311.9 nm. Most of them (15 bacteriophages) had the tail terminated in the basal plate. The lytic properties of the investigated bacteriophages were not identical. 11 of them showed features of lytic group III and 7 of lytic group V (miscellaneous).
