Further characterization <strong>of</strong> phages<br />
• 20/42 phage isolates were considered highly lytic to<br />
E. <strong>coli</strong> O157:H7<br />
• Multiplicity <strong>of</strong> Infection (MOI) is unique <strong>for</strong> each phage<br />
• Contact t concentration ti <strong>of</strong> phages with target t is critical<br />
• Allows us to target low numbers <strong>of</strong> E. <strong>coli</strong> O157:H7<br />
found in meat (highly lytic)<br />
• Pulsed Field Gel Electrophoresis (PFGE) (genome<br />
sizing, restriction patterns) to type naturally-occurring<br />
phage and E. <strong>coli</strong> O157:H7 (SS and CTRL animals).
