Growth data and electron-microscopic analyses are presented for Proteus vulgaris cultures which were grown during space flight in polyethylene packets in a semisolid medium with Tryptose for 96 h. In the suboptimal culture conditions the growth and morphological characteristics of the flight and ground control variants were nearly identical, but we were able to detect a number of differences between the cellular ultrastructure of these variants. These differences testify to changes in the bacterial cell metabolism during space flight.
本文展示了普通变形杆菌在太空飞行期间于聚乙烯包装内、含有胰蛋白胨的半固体培养基中培养96小时后的生长数据及电子显微镜分析结果。在次优培养条件下，太空飞行组和地面对照组变体的生长和形态特征几乎相同，但我们能够检测到这些变体细胞超微结构之间的一些差异。这些差异证明了太空飞行期间细菌细胞代谢的变化。
