| Plaque Notes | Plaques can be categorized as "bullseye." Larger plaques have significant halos around them, while smaller plaques are less distinct. The bullseye plaques indicate a lytic phage that has not fully lysed a cell, or is less efficient at during lysis. Most of the plaque shows clearness, while the outside of the cell indicates turbidity. |
