Container material dictates stability of bacteriophage suspensions: Light scattering and infectivity measurements reveal mechanisms of infectious titre decay
Résumé
Aims: To measure the infectious titer (IT) decay rate for various bacteriophages as a function of storage container material. Additionally, parallel light scattering and infectious titer measurements reveal distinct mechanisms for IT loss, depending on phage. Methods and Results: Suspensions of bacteriophages 44AHJD, P68, and gh-1 were stored in various labware. IT of each suspension was repeatedly measured over the course of two weeks. Large variability in IT decay was observed, with >4 log10 loss in glass and low-binding polypropylene.
