[Intracellular development of Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus].
The intracellular growth of Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus, a bacterial parasite, was studied by a light-optical method using time-lapse cinemicrography. The organism was found to be capable of growth in the periplasmic space of filamentous cells of the host bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens without any contact with the cytoplasmic membrane. Several B. bacteriovorus cells could grow simultaneously in the bdelloplasm.
