Comparison of Growth and Toxin Production in Two Vaccine Strains of Bacillus anthracis
AUTOR(ES)
Johnson, Anna D.
RESUMO
Two vaccine strains of Bacillus anthracis were monitored in a 10-liter fermentor to compare growth patterns and toxin production. Under identical conditions, the Sterne strain produced all three components of anthrax toxin, whereas strain V770 produced only the protective antigen.
