Özet

Bacteriophages are considered as alternative antibacterial agents in the food industry and phage therapy due to the widespread of multidrug-resistant pathogen bacteria. The objective of this study was to isolate lytic bacteriophages target to foodborne pathogen Escherichia coli O157:H7. For screening of bacteriophages, 51 samples were collected from sewage, wastewaters of fish farms, slaughterhouses and food factories, and 18 bacteriophages were isolated. The titer of the purified phages samples were changed among 1.7×104-1.02×108 PFU/ml. All of the isolated phages had lytic activity against E. coli O157:H7 strains and thus formed clear plaques. Four of 18 phages were found to have inhibitory effects against other E. coli strains including CFAI, ATCC 25922 and DS? in addition to E. coli O157:H7. It was observed that only two phages were infective against Salmonella Kentucky DMC35. The Eco-OH-phages were highly infection ability with EOP values from 0.5 to 0.1 against E. coli O157:H7 strains.
