Arthrobacter sp. is one of several Actinobacteria being used for the isolation of novel bacteriophages in the SEA-PHAGES program. Here, we tested various factors that influence bacterial growth, phage isolation, phage amplification, and DNA extraction, for Arthrobacter sp.[ATCC 21022] and arthrobacteriophages.
