Abstract

The specific properties of the phage were analyzed to support its use to standardize the nomenclature of larger-pore-size virus filters. It was seen that the coliphage PR772 appears to be an appropriate model bacteriophage for standardization of nomenclature for larger-pore-size virus-retentive filters.
