Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 17, Issue 4, April 2024.Bacteriophage endolysins have limited use against Gram‐negative bacteria for the envelop. To enhance the extracellular activity of endolysin and facilitate its crossing through the outer membrane of Gram‐negative bacteria, researchers have adopted physical, chemical, and molecular strategies for endolysin modification, to promote the application of ...

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

eLife, 2020 Bacteria, bacteriophages that prey upon them, and mobile genetic elements (MGEs) compete in dynamic environments, evolving strategies to sense the milieu. The first discovered environmental sensing by phages, lysis inhibition, has only been characterized

A minireview on the in vitro and in vivo experiments with anti-Escherichia coli O157 : H7 phages as potential biocontrol and phage therapy agents [PDF]
, 2017 Phage therapy is an old method of combating bacterial pathogens that has recently been taken into consideration due to the alarming spread of antibiotic resistance. Escherichia coli 0157:H7 is a foodborne pathogen that causes hemorrhagic colitis and life-

Detección de virus entéricos en un sistema piloto de tratamiento de aguas residuales municipales
Kasmera, 2014 : A pilot system for treating municipal waste was evaluated to verify its ability to remove viral pathogens. The presence of Adenovirus, Calicivirus, Enterovirus and Hepatitis A and E was determined using RT-PCR.

Implications of free Shiga toxin-converting bacteriophages occurring outside bacteria for the evolution and the detection of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli [PDF]
, 2014 In this review we highlight recent work that has increased our understanding of the distribution of Shiga toxin-converting phages that can be detected as free phage particles, independently of Shiga toxin-producing bacteria (STEC). Stx phages are a quite

Characterization of a ViI-like Phage Specific to
Virology Journal, 2011 Phage vB_EcoM_CBA120 (CBA120), isolated against Escherichia coli O157:H7 from a cattle feedlot, is morphologically very similar to the classic phage ViI of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi. Until recently, little was known genetically or physiologically

npj Clean WaterSomatic coliphages are recognized reliable indicators of faecal contamination in water. Their routine monitoring relies on time-consuming, labour-demanding culture-based methods, which are limited to detecting total somatic coliphages. Here, we developed
