Bluephage, a method for efficient detection of somatic coliphages in one hundred milliliter water samples.

Emerging water quality guidelines and regulations require the absence of somatic coliphages in 100 mL of water, yet the efficiency of standardized methods to test this volume of sample is questionable. A recently described procedure, Bluephage, using a modified E. coli host strain, overcomes some of...
