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

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 ...

Localization of Coliphage MS2 A-Protein [PDF]
The purification of coliphage MS2 dinitrophenol (DNP) conjugates provided a system for localization of the single molecule of A-protein in the capsid of the MS2 phage particle. Three A-protein preparations isolated from unconjugated MS2, overconjugated DNP-MS2, and purified 78 S DNP-MS2 were tested for the presence ...

Coliphages are the bacteriophages that attack and lyse Escherichia coli, a bacterium emerging as multidrug-resistant, thereby posing a serious public health challenge.

Since 2020, there is a new European Regulation (EU, 2020/741) on minimum requirements for water reuse, where routine and validation monitoring requirements (log reductions of indicator microorganisms and reference pathogens) have been established.

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.

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 ...

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

Methodology for enumeration of coliphages in foods [PDF]
The effects of eluent composition, pH, and chaotropic agents on the recovery of T2, MS2, and indigenous coliphages from various foods were investigated. Additionally, methods of sample suspension and clarification were evaluated for coliphage recovery and application to various foods.

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.
