BIOLOGICAL INFORMATION
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The phage spotting assay (PSA) for phage titration is used to determine the concentration of a phage product measured as plaque-forming units per mL against a panel of P. aeruginosa strains (ATCC 9027, ATCC 27853, PA6206, LES-431, AR Bank #0246, and AR Bank #0266).

TESTING INFORMATION
PROCEDURE SUMMARY
The testing phage suspension is 10-fold serially diluted with phage dilution buffer (such as SM buffer) for a total of 6 concentrations (typical range is 10⁴ to 10⁹ dilutions). A 0.1 mL aliquot of each phage dilution is mixed with 0.1 mL of bacterial overnight culture in a broth medium. Duplicate phage-bacteria mixtures are prepared with one phage dilution series. Phage absorption to cells is allowed at room temperature for a period of 15 minutes. Molten top agar medium, containing 0.75% agar and with a volume of 3 mL, is added to the phage-bacteria mixture, and the tube is mixed by quick inversion. The contents are plated onto pre-warmed (25°C) bottom agar medium, typically LB containing 1.5% agar. The plates are rotated to evenly distribute the top agar and then allowed to solidify at room temperature. The plates are then incubated for 18 – 24 h at 35-37°C. Plaques are counted on plates with 1 to 300 distinguishable plaques to calculate PFU/mL values.
CRITERIA FOR SIGNIFICANCE
The phage spotting assay (PSA) for phage titration is used to determine the concentration of a phage product measured as plaque forming units per mL (PFU/mL).
