Physiological Studies of the Bdellovibrio-Host Interaction
Description:
The purpose of this study was to focus attention on the physiology of the bdellovibrio-host interaction and to determine the metabolic requirements for this reaction. Since bdellovibrio is an aerobic organism, direct measurements of respiration, turbidity, and viable cell counts are reliable indications of the metabolic activity of the cells.
It was determined that the metabolic requirements for the parasitic interaction are constituents from either metabolically active host cells or cells whi…
