title: [The role of the carotenoid pigments of staphylococcus in the response of cells to temperature changes].
abstract: A study was made of the reaction of the membranous apparatus of the pigmented strains of staphylococcus 209-P and its four apigmented variants to the action of various temperatures measured by the exit from the cells of the low molecular components. Permeability of the cell membranes in case of the action of the extreme temperatures of the 209-P strain altered much more than that of the apigment variants. It is supposed that the carotinoid pigments of the apathogenic staphylococci took part in the formation of functional lability of the bacterial membranes.
