Incubations of phage suspension at different temperatures, pHs, and CHCl3 were performed for 60 min. Phage % viability (mean ± SD from three independent assays) was relative to the initial phage titer (109 PFU/mL) in control condition (25°C in Saline-Magnesium buffer pH 7.5) before the test incubations.
