Summary Phage-like particles from kappa of stock 562 of Paramecium aurelia have been isolated by CsCl density gradient centrifugation. Analyses show that the particles contain about 1.6×1016g DNA and 2.0×10-16g protein. Their buoyant density is approximately 1.47. DNA from the particles has a buoyant density very close to that of whole kappa DNA. The presence of DNA in the particles has been confirmed by a cytochemical technique. The results support the conclusion that kappa contains a bacteriophage.
