Abstract:Recei ved J ul y 7, 1967 As a counterwork for preventing phage growth in industrial L-glutamic acid fermentation, the screening of effective chemical agents was carried out. Of the sixty chemicals such as surface-active agents, antibiotics, organic acids, dyestuffs and others, citrate, oxalate and tri-or tetrapolyphosphate showed the selective inhibition for phage growth. The concentrations of these chemicals required to inhibit phage growth were 5 X 10-2 M for citra te or oxalate, and 0.196 for tri-or tetr… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
