Bacteriophage Isolated From the Common House Fly (Musca Domestica)

Abstract

1. Bacteriophage active against four species of bacteria was found in a salt solution extract of house flies. 2. A growth-inhibiting principle, not bacteriophage, active against four other species of bacteria was found to be present in the same extract. 3. An attempt to secure streptococcus bacteriophage by feeding to flies a streptococcus susceptible to the inhibitor but not to the bacteriophage of this filtrate was unsuccessful, indicating that the two activities are quite unrelated.

The classification of bacteriophages lysing staphylococci

“…Group D phages differ from those of other serological groups in that none is known to have been isolated from a lysogenic staphylococcus. The 'muscae' phage has a narrower host range than the other phages of this serological group, and was isolated from an extract of house-flies (Shope, 1927).…”

Bacteriophage Formation Without Bacterial Growth

“…Pkage.--All the experiments during this work were carried out with the staphylococcus phage described by Shope (12).…”

“…Dari percobaan tersebut, didapat kesimpulan bahwa cairan yang dicelupi seluruh tubuh lalat akan memindahkan bakteri baik dari lalat yang memiliki fungsi sebagai pemusnah bakteri patogen dan sebagai penghambat pertumbuhan bakteri. Masing-masing jenis bakteri memiliki rentang waktu berbeda-beda sebelum musnah oleh kandungan substansi pada lalat (Shope, 1927(Shope, , p. 1037.…”
