Plaque NotesThroughout the purifying process, the plaques of PrincessMocha were turbid on each of the plates that were used to continue this process. All with an organic circle shape. For this reason, four serial dilutions were performed to ensure the phage was purified before a high-titer lysate was created. The diameter is about 0.5 - 1 mm.
