Virus Log Reduction Values and Dominant Mechanisms in Full-Scale Secondary Biological Wastewater Treatment Systems. [PDF]
For secondary treatment, the dominant virus removal mechanism varies based on system type and method(s) used to quantify virus reduction. This study demonstrates that secondary treatment can achieve significant virus reduction, but regulatory crediting for direct potable reuse may still not be justified.

Morphological Variants of Coliphage P1 [PDF]
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

Partial Characterization of Coliphage WPK and a Comparison with Coliphage T3 [PDF]
AbstractColiphage WPK was originally isolated from sewage in Kiel, Germany, because its plaque diameter continued to expand for days. Electron microscopy revealed an isometric capsid with dimensions of 54 nm between opposite apices, and a short, noncontractile tail 16 nm long, placing phage WPK into morphogroup C1.

Coliphages of the human urinary microbiota
Due to its frequent association with urinary tract infections (UTIs), Escherichia coli is the best characterized constituent of the urinary microbiota (urobiome). However, uropathogenic E. coli is just one member of the urobiome. In addition to bacterial constituents, the urobiome of both healthy and symptomatic individuals is home to a diverse ...

Limitation of the Lytic Effect of Bacteriophages on <i>Salmonella</i> and Other Enteric Bacterial Pathogens and Approaches to Overcome. [PDF]
Bacteriophages (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.

Basics for Improved Use of Phages for Therapy
Blood-borne therapeutic phages and phage capsids increasingly reach therapeutic targets as they acquire more persistence, i.e., become more resistant to non-targeted removal from blood.

Replication of coliphage lambda DNA [PDF]
A general scheme of lambda phage and plasmid DNA replication in Escherichia coli is presented, and results of in vivo experiments from the authors' laboratory are superimposed. The initiator lambda O functions in the assembly of the replication complex (RC) at ori lambda, making it a stable component of this structure.

Occurrence of coliphage in effluent: A systematic literature review and meta-analysis
Studies have illustrated that wastewater treatment methods targeting bacteria do not remove all types of viruses and available epidemiological studies indicate bacteria concentrations may not always be predictive of viral illnesses associated with ...

Plant Sample Collection and Shipment for Multi‐omic Analyses and Phytosanitary Evaluation
Abstract Plant sample preparation for analyses is a fundamental step in high‐throughput omics strategies. Especially for plant metabolomics, quenching of hydrolytic enzymes able to affect metabolite concentrations is crucial for the accuracy of results.
