| Plaque Notes | - approx. 3.5-4mm
- clear center with very slight haze surrounding the inner circumference of the phage
- moderately aggressively in terms of growth rate since the size is relatively small in comparison to how much bacterial lawn was cleared during each infection ( a silent but deadly killer)
