5 strains of E. coli are isolated. They may be mutated on the ara, mal, leu and pro genes, and only these 4 genes. The 5 strains (E1 to E5) are tested on 5 different media and colonies are observed the next day.

The strain of λ phage t is cI857. That tells you that the cI DNA segment is disabled by a specific mutation. What is the exact genetic change in cI857? What specific property of the cI gene product does this mutation change, and how does this help titering for a plaque assay?
describe how the exercise of streaking a loop full of lytic T4-phage suspension over a petri dish with E. coli B, Enterobacter aerogenes and Staphylococcus aureus demonstrates the principle of phage typing.
The following table includes information from a procedure where mice were injected with different concentration amounts of a certain microbe (Mircobe A) under these distinct circumstances: no other treatment added (NT), after being exposed to anti-microbe A vaccine (vacA), and during treatment with a broad-spectrum antibiotic (x).

Is Microbe A antibiotic-sensitive? 3. Is the vacA vaccine effective to stop the infection?
Hi, I am working on qPCR quantification for specific bacteria. However, when the CT value achieve greater than 30, it always shown high CT value differences in my duplication no matter I repeat the same set of experiment for those samples with low quality. My question is, what makes this happening? The other question is, how many CT value differences is acceptable for duplication?
Draw a dilution scheme for a dilution of phage from 1.5 x 1010 PFU/mL to 1.00 x 102 PFU/mL. Achieve this serial dilution considering the following: The volumes of each dilution should be 1.0mL. It is not advisable to perform any dilutions > 1/100. The first dilution in any titre determination of stock phage should use 10µl or less of stock.
1 2. 3. Two different cultures of Escherichia coli bacteria were inoculated onto nutrient agar plates. One culture was transformed with pGLO plasmid and the other culture was not. All of the plates shown above are illuminated with ultraviolet light. • Which plate was inoculated with E.coli+PGLO bacteria and included ampicillin antibiotic but did not include arabinose? • Which plate was inoculated with E.coli+pGLO bacteria and included both ampicillin antibiotic and arabinose. • What would you expect to observe on a plate that included ampicillin and was inoculated with E. coli minus (without) PGLO plasmid?
A phagehunter performs a spot titer using standard techniques (3 ul of each dilution spotted to lawn) of a lysate obtained from an optimum webbed plate experiment. The phagehunter counts 4 plaques on the 10-8 dilution spot. Which of the following scenarios is the best choice for the phagehunter to do next? a.) The phagehunter has not achieved a high enough titer lysate to move forward with characterization experiments, so they should try to make more optimum webbed plates. b.) The phagehunter has not achieved a high enough titer lysate to move forward with characterization experiments, so they should adopt a phage from direct isolation. c.) The phagehunter has achieved a high enough titer lysate to move forward with characterization experiments. d.) The phagehunter has not achieved a high enough titer lysate to move forward with characterization experiments, so they should go back to the pick-a-plaque experiment.

The virus targets and delivers this geneticinformation to the cells of our respiratory tract, which produce benign SARS-CoV-2 surface spike proteins butare effective for training our immune system to defend us against SARS-CoV-2.Based on this information and your knowledge of viruses in general, could T4 bacteriophage be used in place of
