COMPARISON OF METHODS OF STORAGE OF LACTOCOCCAL BACTERIOPHAGES
Abstract
Vitality of bacteriophages of lactic acid bacterium Lactococcus lactis is investigated at storage in liquid, frozen and freeze–drying condition. Survival of virus particles at all ways of storage is species–specific. It was revealed that the survival of bacteriophages at storage in the liquid a nd frozen condition decreases to proportionally time frameworks. The survival of bacteriophages at storage in freeze–drying condition intensively decreases within the first year of storage, within the next two years changes towards reduction slightly. It is revealed that difficult protective environments are most suitable for freeze–drying process and the further storage of bacteriophages in a dried condition.
