Additional File 1:
Sensitivity of Phage Replication Assay to Growth Conditions. This file explains some assumptions that underlie the Phage Replication Assay (PRA), how assay conditions may violate those assumptions and affect those values estimated, and how to minimize the effect of violating those assumptions. A mathematical model using differential equations is provided to evaluate the magnitudes of some of these effects.
