Bacteriophage typing ofstaphylococcus aureus [PDF]

Journal of Hygiene, 1952
The routine methods for propagation of staphylococcal typing bacteriophages, and for their use in identifying strains of staphylococci, are described.Most of the phages can be propagated in fluid media as well as on agar, and for some glucose-peptone-water is a better medium than nutrient or Todd-Hewitt broth.Many phage filtrates derived from broth or ...

Bacteriophage typing of Listeria species [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1990
A bacteriophage typing scheme for differentiating Listeria isolates from dairy products and various other foodstuffs was developed. Sixteen selected phages isolated from both environmental sources and lysogenic strains were used for typing and, according to their lytic spectra, divided into four groups. Thus far, 41 distinct patterns of lysis were seen

Bacteriophage typing of Shigella sonnei [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1977
A bacteriophage-typing schema was developed for differentiating strains of Shigella sonnei. Sixty-seven bacteriophages were obtained from other collections, and 36 bacteriophages were isolated from sewage. From these 103 bacteriophages, a provisional set of 12 was chosen by computer analysis as being the most sensitive in differentiating strains of S ...

Characterization of the newly isolated lytic bacteriophages KTN6 and KT28 and their efficacy against Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm [PDF]

, 2015
We here describe two novel lytic phages, KT28 and KTN6, infecting Pseudomonas aeruginosa, isolated from a sewage sample from an irrigated field near Wroclaw, in Poland.

Diversity and function of phage encoded depolymerases [PDF]

, 2020
Bacteriophages of the Podoviridae family often exhibit so-called depolymerases as structural components of the virion. These enzymes appear as tail spike proteins (TSPs).

Interference with propagation of typing bacteriophages by extrachromosomal elements in Salmonella typhimurium: bacteriophage type 505 [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1976
Samonella typhimurium bacteriophage type 505 is the most frequently encountered phage type in the Netherlands and its neighboring countries. Phage type 505 was analyzed with regard o the interference with propagation of the typing phages by the prophages and plasmids, present in the type strain S.

Bacteriophage typing inSalmonella bareilly [PDF]

Epidemiology and Infection, 1994
SummaryA total of 675 stdrains ofSalmonella bareillyreceived from different parts of India and France during 1959–92 were phage typed using six bacteriophages. Overall ttypability achieved was 90·8% with 23 distinctphage types excluding a group of untypable strains. Phage types have been defined in octal code.

Comparative genomics of Shiga toxin encoding bacteriophages [PDF]

, 2012
Background Stx bacteriophages are responsible for driving the dissemination of Stx toxin genes (stx) across their bacterial host range. Lysogens carrying Stx phages can cause severe, lifethreatening disease and Stx toxin is an integral virulence factor.

Neutral genomic microevolution of a recently emerged pathogen, salmonella enterica serovar agona [PDF]

, 2013
Salmonella enterica serovar Agona has caused multiple food-borne outbreaks of gastroenteritis since it was first isolated in 1952. We analyzed the genomes of 73 isolates from global sources, comparing five distinct outbreaks with sporadic infections as
