Discovery Information
Isolation HostMycobacterium smegmatis mc²155
Found ByDeborah Duong
Year Found2021
Location FoundPhiladelphia, PA United States of America
Finding InstitutionSaint Joseph's University
ProgramScience Education Alliance-Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science
From enriched soil sample?Yes
Isolation Temperature37°C
GPS Coordinates40.066 N, 75.048 W Map
Discovery NotesThe sample was collected on January 23, 2021, at around 11:30 AM in a flower bed at an apartment complex near Pennypack Woods. The weather that day was sunny but windy. The sample was collected after digging about 2cm deep into the soil.

After conducting a PCR test for the D cluster, results suggest it is unlikely that Leopard is in the D cluster.
Naming NotesLeopard is the name of the phage because when purifying, the phage looked similar to a leopard print, and was a description I used in my lab notebook frequently.

Plaque NotesLeopard took about 48 hours of incubation before plaques appear on plates. The plaques are turbid, and range from 0.5 - 1.5 mm in diameter.

From measuring 8 different phages on EM pictures, the average capsid size was 54.4nm and the average tail length was 232.5nm.
