Minute polyhedral form, 25-nm diam, with circular, single-stranded DNA; a close relative of S13 phage; good for plaque morphology and demonstrating effect of cations on phage growth. Bacteriophage is individually tested for quality and titer. This coliphage is supplied as filtered (sterile) peptone broth suspension of high relative infective titer in screw-cap vials. Vial contains 5 mL and proven titer is noted on label. Note: Refrigerate coliphage until use; do not freeze. For Educational Use Only. All orders are subject to Carolinas Terms and Conditions

It worked in just the way I needed it to and got the experiment to work. You wont find many other places with ssDNA phages, so the diversity was appreciated.

the lab to compare the two phages did not work as planned. The t4 phages worked, but the phi phage didnt.

phiX is useful for demonstration of different plaque morphology as well as for phage typing experiments.

Just note that I only got it to work on E. coli C. Nothing showed up for B or K-12.
did not produce plaques on E. coli C
