摘要
Highly oriented fibres of the cylindrical bacteriophage Pf1 have been produced by drying a concentrated solution in a magnetic field of 8 Tesla. Substantial improvement in the alignment of the phage parallel to the fibre axis is demonstrated by X-ray diffraction. This effect is due to the intrinsic diamagnetic anisotropy of the viruses and to their co-operative behaviour. © 1979.
