Discovery NotesWe looked in the back of our Biology & Science Center building. We looked for dirt that had possible phage. We stayed near the building in hopes of finding phage that had never been discovered.
Naming NotesWe were searching for Phage, which was a new term and lesson in our Biology class. We originally had the name PhagePhinders but the website doesn't allow the word "phage".

Plaque NotesWhen creating plaques, we made sure there was no contamination when moving from each level with dilutions. We needed to infect the culture tubes before creating the plaque assays and be careful when pouring the petri dish to cover and not have bubbles creating any confusion. After being incubated, we found phage after several tests without any lysate.
