Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
R. ARMON AND Y. KOTT. 1993. A rapid, simple and sensitive direct bacteriophage presence detection method for 500 ml drinking water samples has been developed. The method includes a glass device consisting of a jar containing the water sample and an immersible probe filled with solidified soft agar containing bacterial host cells. Host bacteria in logarithmic phase were added to the experimental volume and the probe was submerged. The entire device was incubated in a water bath at 36d̀C. Plaques of somatic bacteriophage infecting Escherichia coli strain CN, could be detected within 3 h. Male‐specific bacteriophages infecting E. coli F+ amp were detected within 6 h. Bacteriophage infecting the anaerobe Bacteroides fragilis subsp. fragilis HSP40 were detected after 8 h. Application of this device and the associated technique, enabled a one‐step detection of 1 pfu of E. coli or Bact. fragilis specific bacteriophage in 500 ml drinking water samples.
