[Chemical induction of lysogeny of Staphylococcus aureus (author's transl)].
Concerning the chemical induction of lysogeny of Staphylococcus aureus only little is known. Therefore, we performed induction experiments on 43 Staph, aureus strains using nine mutagenic substances and 15 chemotherapeutics. Only three of the nine mutagenic substances (beta-propiolacton, nitrosoguanidin and mitomycin C) and six of the 15 chemotherapeutics (penicillin G, ampicillin, cephalothin, nebacetin, novobiocin and nalidixie acid) showed inducing effects. Our results demonstrated furtheron that the lysogeny inducing ability is dependent on strains and substances used.
