Bacterial viruses attack specific cells
What is SDS phage?
there is nothing like SDS phage but... 1. SDS is a well know detergent used to denature proteins before electrophoresis called SDSPAGE. 2. phage (bacteriophage) is a virus that infects the bacteria which contains eother DNA or RNA. SDS PAGE can be used to determine the phage proteins which u can call SDSPAGE of phage.

What is temperate phage superinfection immunity?
c. Repression of the phage genome - A phage coded protein, called a repressor, is made which binds to a particular site on the phage DNA, called the operator, and shuts off transcription of most phage genes EXCEPT the repressor gene. The result is a stable repressed phage genome which is integrated into the host chromosome. Each temperate phage will only repress its own DNA and not that from other phage, so that repression is very specific (immunity to superinfection with the same phage).Reference: http://pathmicro.med.sc.edu/mayer/phage.htm
What are temperate phages?
A phage that can enter into lysogeny with its host. A phage that can become a prophage.
