The methods of electron microscopy and optic difraction were used to determine the main parameters of the structural organization of cholera bacteriophage of serotype II. The virions of the phage under study were found to consist of a capsid of icosahedral shape and 77.4 X 66.1 nm in size, formed of 252 morphological subunits and having the cavity volume of 76.3 X 10(3) nm3. A process of 94.8 nm in length adheres to the capsid, with a shell capable of contractions, of 85.6 nm in length, 20.6 nm in width, containing 60 morphological subunits. The shell covers the central core of 8.9 nm in diameter. The optic difraction revealed the helical type of symmetry of the process structure and its main parameters.
运用电子显微镜和光学衍射方法测定了Ⅱ型霍乱噬菌体结构组织的主要参数。研究发现，所研究噬菌体的病毒粒子由一个二十面体形状的衣壳组成，大小为77.4×66.1纳米，由252个形态亚基构成，腔体积为76.3×10³立方纳米。一个长度为94.8纳米的突起附着在衣壳上，其外壳能够收缩，长度为85.6纳米，宽度为20.6纳米，包含60个形态亚基。该外壳覆盖着直径为8.9纳米的中心核心。光学衍射揭示了突起结构的螺旋对称类型及其主要参数。
