TABLE 4.

Relative bacteriophage reactivation and plating efficiency factors on stationary-phase P. aeruginosa PAO1 and a uvrA knockout derivative of P. aeruginosa PAO1

Phage Reactivation factor for UV-C-irradiated phage under the following incubation conditionsa:
Plating factor for unirradiated phagea
Dark Photoreactivating
D3C3 7.5 × 10−6 2.3 × 10−3 0.46
F116 NDb ND ND
G101 1.2 × 10−4   2 × 10−3 1.07
UNL-1 1.3 × 10−5 3.1 × 10−2 0.97
a

The factors were each calculated by comparing the plating (plaque-forming) efficiency of a phage sample on stationary-phase uvrA knockout host cells to the plating (plaque-forming) efficiency of stationary-phase P. aeruginosa PAO1 host cells. The values are means based on two experiments.
