Figure 5.

Phage activity in S100 capsules stored for 6 months at 4–8 °C in the fridge. Capsules were stored after wicking any residual moisture using filter paper. Weekly measurements (measured for the first month) of T3 phage release following dissolution of capsules for 2h in Sorensen’s buffer (pH 7). Measurements were subsequently taken at months 3 and 6. Error bars represent one standard deviation. N.B. No significant difference between phage titres compared to the initial titre using a paired t-test. * Significant values (n = 3), n.s. not significant.
