Isolation of Streptococcus lactis bacteriophages and their interaction with the host cell

Phages may cause lysis of lactic acid bacteria used in cheese production. Three virulent bacteriophages specific for Streptococcus lactis subsp. lactis C2 were isolated and purified from cheese whey. They showed distinct plaque sizes, and although they had similar morphology by electron microscopy e...
