Abstract
Newly isolated Vibrio cholerae non-O1, non-O139 phages.
Highlights
Phage typing is a useful tool for studying the source or origin of V. cholerae for epidemiologic importance
Phage-typing scheme for V. cholerae O1 was developed at the National Institute of Cholera and Enteric Diseases, India [1,2,3]
During the course of a comprehensive study on the phage typing of V. cholerae O1, most strains isolated in Brazil were found to be sensitive with a set of 10 El Tor phages (ATCC 51352B1–B10) [4]
