Comparison between the Biofilm Desorption Abilities of T4 and MS2 Coliphages
Applied Sciences, 2022 Biofilms are a collection of microorganisms that adhere to a surface where they continue to grow. Firmly established biofilms can be hazardous to human health.

Sorbitol MacConkey agar and wastewaters` coliphages [PDF]
Journal of Applied Research in Water and Wastewater, 2023 A total of 114 samples collected from hospital wastewaters and rivers in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia were tested for non-sorbitol fermenting bacteria and coliphages. Sorbitol MacConkey agar is mainly used in the detection of E. coli O157:H7.

Partial Characterization of Coliphage WPK and a Comparison with Coliphage T3 [PDF]
Microbiology and Immunology, 1992 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 as Indicators of Fecal Contamination in Wastewater Treatment (SCA.Re.S. Project)
Medical Sciences Forum, 2021 Bacteriophages are fecal indicators of viral contamination, because they are more similar to human pathogenic viruses than the traditional fecal indicator bacteria, in terms of log-reduction during wastewater treatment and persistence in the aquatic ...

Mathematical model of interaction Escherichia coli and Coliphages
Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering, 2023 We propose a mathematical model based in ordinary differential equations between bacterial pathogen and Bacteriophages to describe the infection dynamics of these populations, for which we use a nonlinear function with an inhibitory effect.

New insights into the biodiversity of coliphages in the intestine of poultry
Scientific Reports, 2020 Despite phages’ ubiquitous presence and great importance in shaping microbial communities, little is known about the diversity of specific phages in different ecological niches.

Replication of coliphage lambda DNA [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 1995 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.
