| Discovery Notes | The research took many tries to find a sample with a phage and then once found it took a few steps to isolate the phage alone. The phage isolated in this research was isolated from a soil sample found near a dumpster soon after it rained. The soil was a mix of a grainy/ muddy texture still moist from the rain and full of acorns from the trees. This had the characteristics of a great ares to find the soil needed. on plates 10^0, 10^-1 and 10^-2 also with a negative control, the negative control showed no signs of contamination,so looking at the enrichment samples it shows that 10^0 had few cloudy plaque like figures that I tested |
| Naming Notes | the notes for naming this phage is that i wanted to get more use out of my name for i believe it isnt used much and naming a phage is a great way to start. |
