Phage release by L. lactis TINF1 at different induction conditions. Initial growth phases (OD₆₀₀) and MitC concentrations were varied. a Phage was visualized on agarose gel electrophoresis. HR – high molecular weight DNA marker (10–48 kbp, 250 ng total DNA amount). The amount of λDNA was used as follows: 75, 100, and 175 ng for initial OD₆₀₀ = 0.05 and 0.1; 5, 10, and 25 ng for initial OD₆₀₀ = 0.2 and 0.3. Estimated number of phage particles is shown in panel (b)
