Further information:
Prior to infection, the phage undergoes a conformational change and forms an eclipsed particle.
The phage does not produce high titers above 1E+8 pfu/mL. We recommend to perform lysis on plates, not in liquid culture
Host bacterium:
Escherichia coli (Migula 1895) Castellani and Chalmers 1919
DSM 13127We strongly recommend to use only DSM 13127 for propagation.
