Bacteriophage λλ phage is the viral component in our biological system that we used to test our model. We chose λ phage because it has been characterized and studied for decades. λ phage is also very stable and relatively easy to work with. We had a lot to learn since no one on the team had ever worked with λ phage before. At the beginning of the summer, we received fluorescent λ phage from the Laboratoire de Physique Statistique, Ecole Normale Supérieure, Paris, France. The phage was provided by Philippe Thomen and is characterized in "Propagation of fluorescent viruses in growing plaques" by Alvarez, L. J., P. Thomen, et al. Using this phage we were able to observe the build-up of viral particles in a lytic cell.
