Isolation and Examination of the Host Range of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa Bacteriophages Isolated from Sewage

Abstract

Four pathogenic bacteria isolated from the sewage in this study : Pseudomonas aeruginosa , Escherichia coli , Staphylococcus aureus and Proteus mirabilis. Escherichia coli in addition to Pseudomonas aeruginosa were sensitive to the Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteriophages that isolated from the sewage .Three other Pseudomonas specieces were tested for the sencitivity to the isolated bacteriophages only Pseudomonas specieces with green and yellow pigmentation on Nutrient agar were sensitive to the isolated phages.
