| resistance of pseudomonas aeruginosa pao1 phage f116 to sodium hypochlorite. | the development of viral resistance to sodium hypochlorite was investigated using the pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteriophage f116 as a model system. this phage was chosen because of its structural characteristics and former investigations conducted in this laboratory. f116 was shown to be sensitive to a sodium hypochlorite concentration of 0.0075 gl-1 (available chlorine) which produced a 5 log10 reduction in titre in a suspension test. survival bacteriophages challenged with this sodium hypochlor ... | 1998 | 9830115 |
| energy dispersive analysis of x-rays study of the distribution of chlorhexidine diacetate and cetylpyridinium chloride on the pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteriophage f116. | using an energy dispersive analyser of x-rays fitted to a scanning electron microscope, chlorhexidine was shown not to bind onto f116 bacteriophage, unlike cetylpyridinium chloride, which possibly penetrated the phage. this could explain the difference in viricidal activity between the two compounds. | 1995 | 7786501 |
