title: [Immunochemical and molecular biological characteristics of dysentery phages].
abstract: Molecular organization of DNA of six dysentery phages was studied for their classification. The pattern of glucosilation of their DNA was determined by an immunochemical method and the test of competitive hybridization established the degree of homology of these DNA in relation to T4 phage DNA. Four of the phages (DDVI, Zonne "Gorkyi" Zonne "Czechoslovakia", Zonne "Poland") were shown to belong to the group of T-even  phages by their pattern of DNA glucosilation and by their capacity to inhibit DNA T4X3H DNA T4 hybridization. According to these criteria, two other phages (Zonne "Ufa" and Zonne "Khabarovsk") do not belong to the group of T-even phages.
