Effect of vB_EcoM-ECP26 on growth of E. coli O157:H7. Growth curve of E. coli O157:H7 NCCP 13930 co-cultivated with phage vB_EcoM-ECP26 (a). Reduction of E. coli O157:H7 NCCP 13930 counts on romaine lettuce treated with vB_EcoM-ECP26 for 5 days (applied 106 PFU/mL) (b). P.C: 1x SM buffer treatment; T: Phage treatment; P: Phage titer in romaine lettuce. The data are presented as mean ± SD (n = 3). The asterisk indicates significant differences (*p < 0.05).
