Discovery NotesWhen the phage was first discovered, it was contaminated and me and my partner had to replicate the process multiple times. It. at least was 15+

When we finally got our first webbed plate, we could use it but not to its full extent, due to a low phage count.
So we had to make multiple webbed plates until we got one with different phage morphologies and enough phages for us to experiment on


Once we got a webbed plate with a phage that me and my partner were able to experiment on, we discovered our phage and moved on with the lab procedures
Naming NotesThe name of our page came from combining my partners and I two last names
