Infection Kinetics and Phylogenetic Analysis of vB_EcoD_SU57, a Virulent T1-Like Drexlerviridae Coliphage

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The morphology, infection kinetics, genome sequence and phylogenetic characterization of the previously isolated bacteriophage vB_EcoD_SU57 are presented. The phage vB_EcoD_SU57 was isolated on Escherichia coli strain ECOR57 from the E.

Cold Surface Waters of the Sub‐Antarctic Pacific Ocean Support High Cyanophage Abundances and Infection Levels

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2025.
Here, we investigated the abundance of cyanophages and the extent to which they infect Synechococcus and Prochlorococcus, important primary producers, in the cold, low‐light, iron‐limited, sub‐Antarctic waters of the Pacific Ocean. We found that cyanophages are significant mortality agents, leading to substantial losses of these picocyanobacteria ...

Molecular Typing of Somatic Coliphage Groups and Their Occurrence and Survival in Sewage

Applied Microbiology
A conventional, group-specific PCR method was developed to identify each of the four previously defined major taxa (Myoviridae, Siphoviridae, Podoviridae and Microviridae) of somatic coliphages and used to classify isolates from sewage. Somatic coliphage

Limitation of the Lytic Effect of Bacteriophages on Salmonella and Other Enteric Bacterial Pathogens and Approaches to Overcome

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Bacteriophages (phages) have emerged as promising agents for combating bacterial pathogens, including nontyphoidal Salmonella enterica (S. enterica), the most common foodborne pathogen worldwide. The emergence of antimicrobial‐resistant (AMR) S. enterica poses a severe healthcare issue.

ISOLATION AND IDENTIFICATION OF COLIPHAGE FROM UNTREATED WASTEWATER IN KUALA PILAH NEGERI SEMBILAN

Journal of Academia
Bacteriophages are viruses that can only infect bacterial cells and are perceptible in almost all places where living bacteria are found, as they are highly host specific.

TIGHT REPRESSION OF ELASTASE STRAIN K OVEREXPRESSION BY PT7 (A1/O4/O3) SHUTTLE EXPRESSION SYSTEM [PDF]

Science Heritage Journal, 2017
The PT7(A1/O4/O3) is a promoter resulted from construction of O3 and O4 operators into PA1, a promoter derived from coliphage T7, that evidenced lower the occupancy of the promoter by RNA polymerase and thereby increases the repression factor.

Impact of flocculated and softened particles on UV254 inactivation of indigenous spores

AWWA Water Science, Volume 6, Issue 6, November/December 2024.
Abstract US regulatory ultraviolet (UV) disinfection credit is typically granted when turbidity is ≤1 NTU. However, studies show turbidity does not always correlate well with UV dose responses. This study examined the impact of worst‐case high turbidity scenarios at drinking water treatment plants on UV254 inactivation of indigenous spores from ...

Endemic bacteriophages: a cautionary tale for evaluation of bacteriophage therapy and other interventions for infection control in animals

Virology Journal, 2012
Background One of the most effective targets for control of zoonotic foodborne pathogens in the farm to fork continuum is their elimination in food animals destined for market.

Adsorption of Coliphages to Particulates

Water Science and Technology, 1986
Adsorption characteristics of coliphages (host cell: E. coli B) to particulates (kaolin, sand, soil, microbial particulates in an oxidation pond) were investigated using batch experiments under various conditions of pH, concentrations of cations and concentrations of dissolved oxygen.
