Abstract:
The change in the infectious titer of strains of the Black Sea algal viruses of three species of microalgae (Tetraselmis viridis-strain TvV-S21-1, Dunaliella viridis-strain DvV-S20-1 and Phaeodactylum tricornutum-strain PtV-S20-1) after incubation in a constant unidirectional magnetic field with a magnetic induction of 60 mT was studied experimentally. The studies were carried out using a laboratory installation with a duration of experiments ranging from 24-72 h to 6-8 days. A decrease in the infectious titer of algal viruses by 1-2 orders (10-100 times) was recorded after a magnetic load.
