Diversity and Local Coadaptation of Escherichia coli and Coliphages From Small Ruminants
Bacteriophages are highly specific predators that drive bacterial diversity through coevolution while striking tradeoffs among preserving host populations for long-term exploitation and increasing their virulence, structural stability, or host range ...

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 ...

Development and evaluation of methods to detect coliphages in large volumes of water
New and improved methods have been developed to detect somatic and male-specific coliphages in large volumes of water by single agar layer (SAL), enrichment and membrane filter methods. Somatic coliphages were detected efficiently on E.

The Use of Thermal Inactivation of Male-Specific Coliphages as Potential Indicators of Pathogen Reductions in Thermophilic Anaerobic Digestion [PDF]
Male-specific (F+) coliphages were investigated as indicators of virus inactivation during thermophilic digestion and other thermal processes. Because pathogen monitoring in sludge is difficult, costly, and impractical, microbial indicators are needed to

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.

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

Effect of Sunlight on Coliphages in an Oxidation Pond
Escherichia coli B were used as host cells for isolation and multiplication of coliphages. The coliphages were isolated from a small canal which receives the effluent from an oxidation pond in Bangkok, Thailand, and were used as a virological indicator ...

Bacteriophages and their potential for treatment of metabolic diseases
Highlights The role of phages in preserving human health and their involvement in the pathogenesis of metabolic diseases. The recent advancements in phage‐based therapies, and current challenges and potential future directions. Abstract Recent advances highlight the role of gut virome, particularly phageome, in metabolic disorders such as obesity, type
