Abstract
Pilus-dependent B-morphotype bacteriophages isolated from various sour ces were studied. The adsorption of phages on Pseudomonas aeruginosa p ill was proven. Electron-microscopic examination of the morphology of phages was carried out, and the adsorption properties were partially d escribed. It was suggested that adsorption apparatuses of different pi lus-dependent B-phages are alike with respect to structure and functio n.
