Abstract:
The activity spectrum of 4 polyvalent Staph. aureus-phages, of 22 phages from coagulase negative staphylococci and of 64 micrococcal phages was established on 20 Staph. aureus-strains, 116 coagulase-negative staphylococci and 142 micrococci. Staphylococcal phages showed to be only active on strains of the genus Staphylococcus and on cocci related to this genus. Micrococcal phages on the other hand lysed only micrococci.
