Putative life cycles of the isolated phages were assumed after determination of plaque morphology and reinduction experiments.
Mean numbers of viable counts in one ml of culture after phage treatment were divided by mean numbers viable counts without phage treatment. “0” describes the total elimination of all cells, “1” stands for no significant elimination.
