dc.description.abstract | Water contamination and scarcity of pure water is a major issue of concern in our country. Water
borne epidemics caused by different strains of Escherichia coli, Salmonella or Vibrio have become
more frequent in many developing and underdeveloped countries. Over the years, the application
of bacteriophage as bacterial control tools in various sectors of medicine, food and biotechnology
has grown to be immensely popular. This study was conducted to shed light on the potential effects
of Escherichia coli, Vibrio and Salmonella specific bacteriophages as bacterial control tools to
control water pollution. In this study, after collecting 16 samples from three surface water sources
in Dhaka city, isolation of bacteria and bacteriophages was done. Eventual confirmation of
bacteriophage and its hosts led to comparative analysis of the change in the lag phase of bacterial
growth in presence or absence of phage. The current research may provide information on how
bacteriophages are used as bacterial control tools, and how they help with bacterial control in water
pollution. | en_US |
