| Discovery Notes | In the front of the Life Sciences building on my college campus on 1/23/2023, I used a plastic spoon and sampled the first inch of surface soil and put that amount and the spoon into a plastic bag. It was 50 degrees F outside when I took this sample. |
| Naming Notes | My phage, in each of the lysate and spot test plates it has been tested on, shows the tendency of eating nearly, if not, ALL of the bacterial lawn matter indefinitely. A very hungry and ravenous phage it must be. Therefore, as homage to the classic hungry and ravenous vampire himself in pop culture, I named my phage VladTepes. |
