New Bacteriophages with Podoviridal Morphotypes Active against Yersinia pestis: Characterization and Application Potential

Viruses, 2023
Phages of highly pathogenic bacteria represent an area of growing interest for bacterial detection and identification and subspecies typing, as well as for phage therapy and environmental decontamination. Eight new phages—YpEc56, YpEc56D, YpEc57, YpEe58,

Bacteriophage typing of Listeria species [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1990
A bacteriophage typing scheme for differentiating Listeria isolates from dairy products and various other foodstuffs was developed. Sixteen selected phages isolated from both environmental sources and lysogenic strains were used for typing and, according to their lytic spectra, divided into four groups. Thus far, 41 distinct patterns of lysis were seen

In Vitro Activity, Stability and Molecular Characterization of Eight Potent Bacteriophages Infecting Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae

Viruses, 2022
Background: Members of the genus Klebsiella are among the leading microbial pathogens associated with nosocomial infection. The increased incidence of antimicrobial resistance in these species has propelled the need for alternate/combination therapeutic ...

A Simple Exercise for Teaching Bacteriophage Concepts in the Undergraduate Laboratory Using Commercially Available Disinfectant

Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education, 2018
Virus and bacteriophage are key components in any microbiology teaching. We have used a commercially available disinfectant (TRIGENE) to demonstrate plaques formation from bacteriophages on confluent bacterial lawns.

in vitro effectiveness of commercial bacteriophage cocktails on diverse extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing Escherichia coli strains

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
The objective of this study is to determine the in vitro susceptibility of Georgian bacteriophage cocktails on multi-drug resistant extended-spectrum β-lactamase producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC) isolated from patients' blood and urine cultures. 615 E.

Phages of Listeria offer novel tools for diagnostics and biocontrol

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Historically, bacteriophages infecting their hosts have perhaps been best known and even notorious for being a nuisance in dairy-fermentation processes.

Bacteriophage Typing of Salmonellae. II. New Bacteriophage Typing Scheme [PDF]

Applied Microbiology, 1969
A phage-typing technique for salmonellae is described. One battery of phages was used to type three serotypes of Salmonella , namely, S. typhimurium, S.typhimurium var.

Campylobacter jejuni Developed the Resistance to Bacteriophage CP39 by Phase Variable Expression of 06875 Encoding the CGPTase

Viruses, 2022
Bacteriophage (phage) is regarded as an antimicrobial alternative for Campylobacter in food production. However, the development of phage resistance to the host is a main concern for the phage application.
