Abstract excerpt

The effect of the mutagene nitrosoguanidine (N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine) on the growth of Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. galleriae st. 69/6 was being studied. It depends on the physiological state of the cells, dose of the mutagene, pH of the culture medium and exposition. Nitrosoguanidi...
