[Action of acrylamide on Escherichia coli cells].
The action of acrylamide on Escherichia coli B was studied: short-term action at high concentrations, long-term action at low doses under the normal conditions of growth and in the process of cell immobilization in polyacrylamide gel. Such a treatment was found to cause considerable structural changes in the cells. Division of the cells was inhibited and they reached giant sizes when grown in media containing 1-2% of acrylamide. The phenomenon might be used for differentiation of living and dead E. coli cells.
