Adams M.H., (1959) Methods od study of bacterial viruses. In bacteriophages.
New York: Interscience Publishers.
This is a classical book, however, the methods on the plaque assay
has been alway the same, so it is still worthy to use as a reference.
Second question is something like Ames test?
Hope little help
