The detection and identification of phage have a vital role in production and scientific research, and the presence of phage can usually be identified by microbial detection assay and rapid detection method. According to the precipitation of the bacteriophage after centrifugation of normal cultures, the supernatant has little protein content. It remains clear after heating, while the supernatant of cultures with phage is not clear after centrifugation because it contains active proteins escaping from lysed bacteria, and protein denaturation occurs after heating, thus appearing Tyndall effect under light irradiation. This method is simple and rapid and can determine the presence of phage quickly and accurately. The morphological detection of phage cannot be observed under a light microscope; therefore, the knowledge of phage morphology and structure must start from an electron microscope, which is the same as bacteriophage. An individual phage is called a viral particle, and it has 3 shapes, including a tadpole shape, micro spherical shape, and a ciliated shape.
With many years of experience, Lifeasible offers services for the testing and identification of agricultural phages. Our company has long been committed to providing a full range of integrated services. To detect agricultural phages, you can directly provide the phage mixture, and our professional team can identify and detect the target phages through enrichment, isolation, and purification operations to complete your project requirements.
Lifeasible can provide both direct testing and analysis of agricultural phages and testing and identification of phage mixtures. The process of testing and analysis: the isolated and purified phages are subjected to electron microscopy to observe the morphological structure of the phage particles, the phage suspension is taken as a drop on a copper grid, left for a moment, and the liquid is removed, negative staining is performed with reagents, and the phage morphology is observed under transmission electron microscopy.
Provide agricultural phage suspension, phage type, possible morphological information, etc.
Raw data and experimental report (experimental conditions, instrument parameters, etc.), if required, communicate with our researchers in advance to provide relevant data analysis and solutions for the project.
The Lifeasible team is committed to strict compliance with international regulations and quality control requirements, providing complete data reports and data analysis to ensure the quality of the completed project.
Most of our team comprises a professional team of masters and PhDs with rich knowledge and technology, as well as scientific researchers who have long been dedicated to botanical research and have the experience and foundation to better align with the world's cutting-edge technology and provide advanced products and services.
Transparency and integrity are two of our core values. Our well-trained, friendly, and professional staff strives to complete our client's projects on time through open communication channels that can be communicated with at any time.
Lifeasible's isolation, purification, and detection of agrophages utilize advanced technologies that keep up with cutting-edge science.
Lifeasible has established a one-stop service platform for plants. In addition to obtaining customized solutions for plant genetic engineering, customers can also conduct follow-up analysis and research on plants through our analysis platform. The analytical services we provide include but are not limited to the following:
