Stability of phages vAbBal23 and vAbAbd25 under various conditions. (A) and (B) Effects of temperature on the stability of phages. The phage was incubated at different temperatures for 1 h. (C) and (D) Effects of pH on the stability of phages vAbBal23 and vAbAbd25. The phage was incubated for 1 h at different pH values. The experiments were independently performed in triplicate with triplicate assay. The data are presented as the means ± standard errors from three replicates. “ns” means no significant difference, “*” means p < 0.05, “**” means p < 0.01, “***” means p < 0.001, “****” means p < 0.0001
