STUDIES ON THE BACTERIOPHAGES OF HEMOLYTIC STREPTOCOCCI : II. ANTIGENS RELEASED FROM THE STREPTOCOCCAL CELL WALL BY A PHAGE-ASSOCIATED LYSIN

The lysis of cell walls of hemolytic streptococci by a phage-associated lysin has been described. A method is presented for preparing the lysin from Group C streptococcal phage lysates. Following lysis almost all of the cell wall carbohydrate is recovered in solution. This material has the serologi...
