A Rapid Slide Plaque Technic for Bacteriophage Assay
1. A modified rapid plaque-counting procedure is described, whereby staphylococcal phage host-cell suspensions in agar are spread over constant areas on glass slides and are incubated in moist chambers. 2. Statistical analysis indicated a precision of +/-8.2 for means of sets of eight slides incubated at 37 degrees C. and +/-7.6 for means of sets of eight incubated at 28 degrees C. 3. With the ...
متن کاملA modified MS2 bacteriophage plaque reduction assay for the rapid screening of antiviral plant extracts
INTRODUCTION Traditional methods of screening plant extracts and purified components for antiviral activity require up to a week to perform, prompting the need to develop more rapid quantitative methods to measure the ability of plant based preparations to block viral replication. We describe an adaption of an MS2 plaque reduction assay for use in S. aureus. RESULTS MS2 bacteriophage was capa...
متن کاملRapid plaque assay for encephalomyocarditis virus.
A liquid overlay plaquing technique is described which offers a rapid and simple plaque assay system for small plaque variants of encephalomyocarditis virus.
متن کاملDifferential Effect of Tetrazolium Dyes upon Bacteriophage Plaque Assay Titers.
This study examined whether the practice of incorporating either tetrazolium red or tetrazolium violet dye into plaque assay medium deleteriously influences plaque assay titers. Representative members of six different virus families were studied: Cystoviridae (varphi6), Leviviridae (MS2), Microviridae (varphiX174), Myoviridae (T2), Podoviridae (P22), and Siphoviridae (Denver, T1, and VD13). Eac...
متن کاملOptimizing bacteriophage plaque fecundity.
Bacteriophages (phages), the viruses of bacteria, form visible lesions within bacterial lawns (called plaques), which are employed ubiquitously in phage isolation and characterization. Plaques also can serve as models for phage population growth within environments that display significant spatial structure, e.g. soils, sediments, animal mucosal tissue, etc. Furthermore, phages growing within p...
