FIELD: medicinal microbiology, phages. SUBSTANCE: new virulent pili-specific phage "ГНЦПМ" N 03 lyses broad spectrum of pyocyanic rod strains. Pili (fimbria) are one of factors of pathogenicity in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Phage ⊘ 03 shows lytic activity with respect to 55% test-strains of P. aeruginosa. In this connection inclusion of bacterial virus ⊘ 03 to composition of multipartial medicinal preparation consisting of pyocyanic rod phages of different receptor specificity is considered to be expediently. EFFECT: new strain of phage indicated above.
