Discovery Information
Isolation HostArthrobacter sp. ATCC 21022
Found ByMichelle Cordero
Year Found2014
Location FoundRadnor, PA USA
Finding InstitutionCabrini University
ProgramScience Education Alliance-Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science
From enriched soil sample?Yes
Isolation Temperature30°C
GPS Coordinates40.050927 N, 75.378327 W Map
Discovery NotesThe soil that produced this phage came from a community mulch pile near the Fenimore Woods. Presumably the soil was rich with organic matter perhaps increasing the chances of finding a phage.

Please note that phage lysate was made with glycerol for archiving purposes.
Naming NotesNamed Rings because the phage makes ring-shaped plaques.
