The virological quality of process water (PW) used by the produce industry has received limited attention. As a first step to overcoming technical limitations in monitoring viruses in PW, the analytical performance of ultrafiltration was assessed to ...

The Structure of Coliphages [PDF]
SUMMARY: The detailed morphology of several new coliphages is compared with that of the more familiar types; the resulting information is considered for its taxonomic value. Some were examined at molecular level and new information on the tail structure of the ‘T even’ phages is described.

Bacteriophages as Fecal Pollution Indicators
Bacteriophages are promising tools for the detection of fecal pollution in different environments, and particularly for viral pathogen risk assessment.

Sewage coliphages studied by electron microscopy [PDF]
Sewage was enriched with 35 Escherichia coli strains, and sediments of enrichment cultures were studied in the electron microscope. They contained up to 10 varieties of morphologically different particles. T-even-type phages predominated in 14 samples.

Bacteriophages are regarded as enteric viral indicators in faecally contaminated water systems and may indicate the presence of human viral pollution. They are relatively resistant to inactivation by natural and treatment processes.

Airborne coliphages from wastewater treatment facilities [PDF]
The emission (from wastewater treatment plants) of airborne coliphages that form plaques on two strains of Escherichia coli was investigated. Two activated-sludge and two trickling-filter plants were studied. Field sampling procedures used large-volume air samplers with recirculation devices.

Coliphages as indicators of enteroviruses [PDF]
Coliphages were monitored in conjunction with indicator bacteria and enteroviruses in a drinking-water plant modified to reduce trihalomethane production. Coliphages could be detected in the source water by direct inoculation, and sufficient coliphages were detected in enterovirus concentrates to permit following the coliphage levels through different ...

This paper describes monitoring of outgoing water from drinking water treatment plants, geographically spread over half of Sweden and sampled every other month for 1 year. We found differences in the virome from the different water sources from each plant as well as differences in virus size and seasonal variation, where we also could detect viruses in

Coliphage HK243: Biological and Physicochemical Characteristics [PDF]
AbstractColiphage HK243 can form plaques on Escherichia coli C and K‐12, but not B. The plaques are 1–2 mm in diameter and are opaque areas which clear upon exposure to chloroform vapor. During one‐step growth, the eclipse and the latent periods are 20 and 30 min, respectively. Phage‐infected cells continue to produce cell‐free plaque‐forming units for
