Characterization
ClusterEP
Subcluster--
Cluster Life CycleUnknown
Lysogeny NotesSigns of potential lysogen formation appeared when distinct halos formed during the spot titer assay, which was executed to find the titer of the medium titer lysate. After successfully testing that the phage cannot infect itself, it is highly possible for Bran to form stable lysogens.

Plaque NotesAfter performing 4 rounds of phage titer assay to isolate one type of phage, 103 small and separate plaques formed on the 10^8 dilution plate after incubating in 37°C after 48 hours. A high titer lysate (HVL) was acquired utilizing this dilution, and the titer came out to be 2.06x10^11 pfu/mL.
