title: [Experimental study of the interaction of phages and bacteria in the environment].
abstract: For the first time the possibility of the interaction of phages and bacterial cells in the environment, consisting in the adsorption and subsequent replication of viral particles, has been shown. The data obtained in this investigation provide grounds for using phages in the environment. Experiments with Escherichia coli M-17 and phage FM17, carried out on experimental models, have demonstrated that the use of phages in the environment completely prevents the realization of the transfer of enteral infections through everyday contacts and the contamination of children and adults under hospital conditions.
