As you record your host range data, please upload your Excel sheets to this post! I also just changed setting on the summary Google spreadsheet so you can add your summary data there! |

Jeremy, If you join the program (and go through our training) we set up an MTA between U of Pittsburgh and your school to be able to ship M. smegmatis mc2 155 to you. So you could use your bacteria to pilot and then you will have smeg by August of next year (assuming you are accepted into the program). |

Follow the Sensitivity Testing Protocols as described in the Phage Discovery Guide (Protocol 11.4) and outlined in the attachment in the Basic Information post. Be sure to read the Cluster N paper! Coming Soon! If you have questions about the protocols, use this topic. Thanks, debbie |

The results of the Xeno Project will be documented on this Forum and will consist of two parts: 1. Summary Report Use this spreadsheet to record a summary of the results of your testing. I have included testing done in the Hatfull lab as an example. You can add additional phages and additional schools to the list as needed. 2. Data Sheets The attached sheet - Xeno Template - will provide you with a template to include all the necessary data to make sound interpretations of that data. Instructions are on the sheet. Review this data sheet as you perform these experiments. In addition to the template, an example,Hatfull lab data, is also attached. |

Hi all, Attached is a list of participants of the Host Range Project. Check to see that you are included if you indeed signed up! The MTA process was begun at Pitt on Friday, Sept. 9, 2016. MTAs are currently under review in Pitt's Office of Research. Once they have passed that process, they will be coming to you and your legal contact person for signatures. Please sign and return immediately! If all goes well, we can ship in early October. If you are participating in the Xeno project, your MTA includes materials for both projects. Also attached is the list of 30 (yes 30!) phages that will be sent you way in early October! I have updated the participant list today 9-29-16. |

Joe, HI! If you haven't lost volume (water), I think you are OK. If you have dropped the volume significantly, you might want to add some sterile water. I don't think you will have trouble with the degradation of small molecules. Just include its date in your lab notebook, so if a pattern presents itself, you will be able to link it to this component. |
