The effect of the bacteriolytic preparation "Lysoamidase" on Staphylococcus aureus 299 P was studied. The maximum activity of the preparation was observed at pH 8.0 ionic strength 0.01-0.02 M and 50-60 degrees of the incubation medium. The electron microscopic examination revealed that "Lysoamidase" hydrolyzed the cell wall in one or several points with the following osmotic shock and extrusion of the cytoplasm. In an isotonic solution (1 M sucrose) "Lysoamidase" caused protoplast formation.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008854 Microscopy, Electron Microscopy using an electron beam, instead of light, to visualize the sample, thereby allowing much greater magnification. The interactions of ELECTRONS with specimens are used to provide information about the fine structure of that specimen. In TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY the reactions of the electrons that are transmitted through the specimen are imaged. In SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY an electron beam falls at a non-normal angle on the specimen and the image is derived from the reactions occurring above the plane of the specimen. Electron Microscopy
D009994 Osmolar Concentration The concentration of osmotically active particles in solution expressed in terms of osmoles of solute per liter of solution. Osmolality is expressed in terms of osmoles of solute per kilogram of solvent.
