Figure Lengend Snippet: MOIs of AEV23 phage (0.1, 1 and 10) for K. pneumoniae . The phage exhibited similar activity at MOIs of 0.1, 1, and 10, but the highest progeny was observed at MOI = 1. Data are shown as the mean ± SD from the triplicate experiments. The asterisks (*** P < 0.001, ** P < 0.01 or * P < 0.05) indicate a significant difference between each phage-treated group and the control with no phage treatment and, the ns shows non-significant difference
Article Snippet: The lytic activity of the phage suspension was evaluated against 9 clinical isolates of K. pneumoniae (1.5 × 108 CFU/mL), 2 Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates (1.5 × 108 CFU/mL), 2 Staphylococcus aureus isolates (1.5 × 108 CFU/mL) from Cystic Fibrosis patients, and one standard strain of K. pneumoniae (ATCC 700603) using the spot assay.
Techniques: Activity Assay, Control
