Phage therapy: An alternative to antibiotics in the age of multi-drug resistance. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The practice of phage therapy, which uses bacterial viruses (phages) to treat bacterial infections, has been around for almost a century. The universal decline in the effectiveness of antibiotics has generated renewed interest in revisiting this practice.

Enteric helminths promote Salmonella co-infection by altering the intestinal metabolome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Intestinal helminth infections occur pre dominantly in regions where exposure to enteric bacterial pathogens is also common. Helminth infections inhibit host immunity against microbial pathogens, which has largely been attributed to the induction of ...
