A universal and effective method for long-term storage of bacteriophages has not yet been described. We show that randomly selected tailed phages could be stored inside the infected cells at -80°C without a major loss of phage and host viability. Our results suggest the suitability of this method as a standard for phage preservation.
尚未描述一种通用且有效的噬菌体长期储存方法。我们表明,随机选择的尾部噬菌体可以在-80°C 的温度下储存在感染细胞内,而不会导致噬菌体和宿主活力的大量损失。我们的结果表明,该方法适合作为噬菌体保存的标准。
