JN06 Bacteriophage: Characterization Data for a Broad-Spectrum Salmonella Phage

Ling Zhang isolated and characterized the broad-spectrum Salmonella bacteriophage JN06 from wastewater. The dataset includes results on phage morphology, host range, infection kinetics, genomic analysis, and efficacy in biofilm inhibition and lettuce decontamination. The data was last updated on 2026-05-26.

Use Cases

• Training models to predict phage host range based on genomic features described in the study
• Benchmarking phage stability and efficacy for food decontamination applications based on the reported temperature, pH, and biofilm inhibition results
• Analyzing the molecular basis of phage adsorption and specificity using the identified O-antigen receptor and docking results

Strengths

• Dataset includes specific quantitative results such as a latent period of 6 minutes and a burst size of 131 PFU/infected cell
• Phage stability is documented across a wide temperature range (4°C-70°C) and pH range (2-12)
• Biofilm formation inhibition rate is quantified at 86.58%

Limitations

• Dataset is a 23.3 KB DOCX file, indicating a very limited scope, likely a summary document rather than raw experimental data
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for computational analysis
