I am a college student studying microbiology. My peers and I just recently
performed an experiment where we tested hamburger meat for bacteriophages
using different strains of E.coli. The procedure we used was the hydrogen
peroxide treatment with crystal violet agar plates for selective recovery of
bacteriophages. For our lab report we would like to compare our results and
procedures to ones that might have been possibly done in the past. We have
tried the internet, library, and the Journal of Applied and Environmental
Microbiology. So far we have had next to no luck finding any articles that
pertain to this test and food. I was wondering if anyone might know of a
source that we might not have tried or a experiment that was done that was
similar to ours.
Thank you,
