The Effect of Protozoa Indigenous to Lakewater and Wastewater on Decay of Fecal Indicator Bacteria and Coliphage [PDF]
Pathogens, 2023 Fecal indicator bacteria (FIB: Escherichia coli and enterococci) are used to assess recreational water quality. Viral indicators (i.e., somatic and F+ coliphage), could improve the prediction of viral pathogens in recreational waters, however, the impact

Coliphages as viral indicators of sanitary significance for drinking water [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Coliphages are virus that infect coliform bacteria and are used in aquatic systems for risk assessment for human enteric viruses. This mini-review appraises the types and sources of coliphage and their fate and behavior in source waters and engineered ...

Urinary Plasmids Reduce Permissivity to Coliphage Infection [PDF]
Microbiology Spectrum, 2023 The microbial community of the urinary tract (urinary microbiota or urobiota) has been associated with human health. Bacteriophages (phages) and plasmids present in the urinary tract, like in other niches, may shape urinary bacterial dynamics.

Limitation of the Lytic Effect of Bacteriophages on <i>Salmonella</i> and Other Enteric Bacterial Pathogens and Approaches to Overcome. [PDF]
Int J MicrobiolBacteriophages (phages) have emerged as promising agents for combating bacterial pathogens, including nontyphoidal Salmonella enterica (S. enterica), the most common foodborne pathogen worldwide. The emergence of antimicrobial‐resistant (AMR) S. enterica poses a severe healthcare issue.

Flow Virometry in Wastewater Monitoring: Comparison of Virus-like Particles to Coliphage, Pepper Mild Mottle Virus, CrAssphage, and Tomato Brown Rugose Fruit Virus [PDF]
VirusesFlow virometry (FVM) offers a promising approach for monitoring viruses and virus-like particles (VLPs) in environmental samples. This study compares levels of non-specific VLPs across a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) with levels of somatic coliphage,

Bayesian electron density determination from sparse and noisy single-molecule X-ray scattering images. [PDF]
Sci AdvSingle molecule X-ray scattering experiments using free electron lasers hold the potential to resolve both single structures and structural ensembles of biomolecules. However, molecular electron density determination has so far not been achieved due to low photon counts, high noise levels and low hit rates.

Morphological Variants of Coliphage P1 [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 1970 Lysates of P1 from all hosts tested contained at least three morphological variants with respect to head size. These were termed “big” (P1B), “small” (P1S), and “minute” (P1M). Since successive clonings of plaques isolated on many different hosts failed to change the proportions of the variants, we concluded that the production of variants

Atlas of Interactions Between Decoration Proteins and Major Capsid Proteins of Coliphage N4 [PDF]
VirusesColiphage N4 is a representative species of the Schitoviridae family of bacteriophages. Originally structurally studied in 2008, the capsid structure was solved to 14 Å to reveal an interesting arrangement of Ig-like decoration proteins across the ...
