| Isolation Temperature | Not entered |
| GPS Coordinates | 40.44268 N, 79.956251 W Map |
| Discovery Notes | The soil sample was collected at 11:59 AM on 09/04/2017 one of the flower beds on the towers patio on the Forbes Avenue side. The soil is very rich and moist. The soil itself is dark brown and is very fine. The temperature outside is 77 degrees and it is sunny outside. The sample was transported in a bag for one hour and then was placed in a refrigerator overnight. |
| Naming Notes | I chose the name Volt for my phage, because it is strong and powerful name. Phages are strong and powerful so I thought the name was appropriate. |
